Out of Africa

Today (sometime, later hopefully), I will begin a series of blog posts which are taken from my journal during my time away in Uganda.  They will be stories and observations, questions and thoughts about our world, about poverty and its' cruel effects on the human spirit, about wealth and what it means to have it, about what God thinks of all of this based on His word, and the implications for the people who claim His name.  It won't be easy reading.  You won't feel good much of the time. But I encourage you to come along with me and see the third world of East Africa through my eyes as a sojourner who spent some time and left a piece of her heart there amongst the African people.  I hope to create vivid word pictures so that you can see it, smell it, feel it, experience it as we did.  Read it. Share it with your friends and family. Talk about it. Comment on what I have written. I welcome your questions and comments.  Mukama Abizibwe Omukisa ( May the Lord Bless You).   Shalom!
