Stuck

This can define several things in my life right now. Stuck with regards to blogging, or physically stuck because of horrible roads or having remained in Karamoja for several months without getting 'out'. It has been an interesting spring and summer. Yes, many teammates left us for a time, but several have returned. And through the mass exodus, we and teammate Leah Hopp, got to work and live with a couple of great 'replacements'! Thank you Mick Knierim and Heather Foss (still with us) for your fellowship and faithful service. God got us through each day as He always does. Why do we ever doubt that He will? God needs to continually remind me of this it seems. That He is always faithful and his mercies are new everyday. Two things I have relied on heavily the last few months. Also that we can not worry about tomorrow for today has enough troubles of its own. Even with all of the challenges of the last few months, the time still passed quickly! September is upon us!

Thank you again for all the prayers for us during this time. Keep the prayers up regarding our road!  We also keep in prayer the Tricarico and Knox families as they are still on furlough.

One more example of being stuck is that we just found out that our teacher Erika Bulthuis, who was set to return today, could not make her flight and things need to be rescheduled for a couple of weeks from now. Another reminder that God is in control, right?! My kids are probably happy that they won't officially start school for a little while, but will likely be surprised come Monday when I inform them we will be doing more schoolish things in preparation for the real thing in a couple of weeks. :-)
