Marriage Session





















Today half of the team stayed at the Stevensons and made desks (at 11 pm still waiting for the lumber to be delivered). So that team pretty much waited today. The other half went to an orphanage called Murchicen Bay. Some worked with youth about purity, some with small kids playing games, and the rest worked with young marrieds and singles about love languages, trust, and God honoring ways to be better husbands and wives. We also played some team building games with the couples which went splendedly. they all were running around trying to work together what a fun experience. But then somehow Kansas winds and rain caught up to us. We had a good Kansas storm. And since we were in a big party type tent everyone held onto the tent just to keep it on the ground. It was intense for a while, but once it calmed down we just continued on. The people were so very receptive of the lessons and truely want better marriages and lives. A great day. Heavy bumper to bumper traffic on the way across Kampala and made it safely back to base camp. Supper was wonderful so much so that I think everyone gained weight today. We hope everyone at home is well we are all healthy and having a great time sharing Gods love.
