Gulu
The team has arrived in Gulu. It was a long trip, but the weather was very good. We had a fairly uneventful trip except for when we crossed the bridge over Karuma Falls. The team was slowing down to take a few pics and apparently we did not ask for permission. The soldiers stopped us and confiscated a camera. Luckily Sam and our driver Chris visited with them and the camera was returned. It appears one of our college students was suspected as a terrorist since they have had some recent activity in this area and the bridge is the only connection from south to north. We prayed in the bus and all was returned to normal. Talk about what you can add to your list of "what I did this summer"... Add suspected international terrorist!
We are eating dinner and will prepare the medicines for tomorrow's clinic in the village Opit. Again we need prayers for sleep as everyone is tired from traveling. It is exciting to be here and ready to serve again.
The village is very remote and the scouting team visited it in 2007, but we have not been back since. It is going to be exciting to set up and serve. Please also be in prayer for tomorrow's clinic. For the team to be rested and strong and for things to flow smoothly and people be blessed.
Peace and blessings
Chris and Kysia
