iri maber!

iri maber = GOOD AFTERNOON in luo, the language of the achioli.
our friends on staff here are teaching us some of the langauge!
we continue to be blown away with the people we meet here - with their hospitality, their spirits, their joy.

we DID finally get water in our hotel, so we've been able to shower - yay!! the power has still been out for most of the city -- we are actually on the internet using a generator.

we are all being stretched and growing so much - sharing our stories and scripture lessons in front of big groups, singing/teaching our praise songs to them (and learning their songs - aka lots of jumping and clapping!), serving, making crafts, playing sports (ask the girls about "net ball" when we get home), praying over the people we meet, hearing their stories...we are definitely making deep connections with the achioli people here in gulu. they have stolen our hearts :)

our trip is at the halfway point - hard to believe...

LUBANGA MARI!! (God loves you)
Team Africa.
