Prayer and Praises- February 10

Dear Prayer Warriors! We can hardly believe we are wrapping up our 6th month here in Uganda and are headed back to the states tomorrow for a family fix. I woke up this morning with mixed emotions about leaving - SO EXCITED to see our family, but somewhat sad to be leaving the work we have going here...the attached journal entry reflects those mixed feelings. As we have said our goodbyes to the people we work with, both Ugandans and Americans we have come to love, we have been touched at the sincere interest in our trip home, the many "hellos" to be extended to our family, and the promised prayers many will be lifting up for us for travel mercies and a blessed journey home. So our prayer requests this week are attached to our travel and our absence from Uganda:1. travel mercies for our trip2. blessed family fellowship - enough to fill us up for the next 6 months!3. the work here in Kicuna - construction to be efficient and good - our construction foreman Yusef to be a strong leader4. the work at Christ Aid Academy - that school will go well and Julius, our Headmaster, will run a tight ship under God's hand5. any work we need to accomplish at home, despite the fact we will not be in Colorado - whether it is via phone or email You are all dear friends and family, so we're giving you our travel schedule and contact information: Feb 10 - depart UgandaFeb 11 - arrive CincinnatiFeb 14 - depart Cincinnati for Texas, Trav, Trudie and my sister DebFeb 19 - return to Cincinnati for a weekend with Chris and familyFeb 20 - possible time with brother TedFeb 22 - Linda's mom arrivesFeb 26-March 1 - we babysit with Maddy and Roo in Cincinnati!March 2 - depart CincinnatiMarch 3 - arrive Entebbe Please contact us via phone at 513-871-7099 (Chris' home) or via email at our present email address.
