Greetings from Kampala!
Wow! What an emotional time I'm having here! The friendly children, thankful adults, smiling faces - it's all quite overwhelming. We have been treated like royalty by all. Yesterday, we got a taste of the local cuisine for lunch. But I did have a Fanta Orange soda to go with it. Most of my family and I visited T.A.P.P. families. These were single women with children who are living with aids. They rent little 6' rooms by working odd jobs like doing laundry and making jewelry. They were so grateful for the little bags of goodies we brought them such as shirts, toothbrushes, colorbooks, candy, sugar, salt, etc. Today, we are headed out to a village to work for 5 days. Out goes the luxury of the cabin and outdoor toilet and shower we were using here. Unsure of what exactly to expect makes me a bit anxious and excited too. I feel so blessed by God to have this experience. Praise God for his goodness! Love to all, Norma Jean
