Photos from Uganda

This is Junior. He was brought in on our first day at the Babies Home. We were in Uganda for two weeks and in this time we saw such a change in him. The second photo was taken on the day we left. Hard to imagine that some of the other kids from the babies home came in a similar condition. He is still very sick, and has TB, which is not normal for someone so young. Would be great if you could pray for him.

This is one of the other little beauties at the babaies home.


These guys I met when I went to visit Thembo my sponsor child. I have never seen poverty li like this. It was heart breaking but inspiring all at the same time. There is so much work to be done. I am on such a campaign to get everyone to sponsor at least one child. It was so great to see the work that Compassion was doing. They are making such a difference.

And this is Thembo. The first photo is all of the family and neighbours that came to see me, the second is him. Didn't get a photo of him smiling, mainly because he didn't. He was so afraid, the whole day. I was the first white person he had seen, and it was only the second time he had ever left the villiage when he came to pick me up. Poor kid. His family were lovely, they served me a huge meal, and gave me a gift (can you believe the generosity???) The third photo is of his mum and dad in front of their mud hut.




And to finish a few photos of the girls. It was the most amazing team, I love them all to bits! That is Sheila in the orange, trying to block the smell from the toilets. Didn't work. Nothing works. There have been some very interesting toilet experiences, but no need to get too much into that here :-) And the second photos is Man Jenny on her birthday at the building site. Our house looks grand, and we are master builders, who would have thought hey?


So there they are. Hope you enjoyed. Have a thousand stories to tell, but will save that for another day, I am at the mall and the girls are ready to go. Am in SA by the way, and we are going on Safari tomorrow, going to find me a giraffe!

Love you all lots, take care of eachother.
