Retreat....of sorts

This past week has been spent traveling. Our whole team made our collective way down to Jinja where we spent three days retreating and meeting. Our 'bosses' from the home office came to lead the meetings during the retreat and to provide some counsel and encouragement to our team. The adult members of the mission met for several hours discussing how things are going (using a Strengths/Weaknesses/Opportunities/Threats assessment), brainstorming future plans and finding out some things we can start working on now to improve our work and our engagement with the community. We all came away with lots of opportunities to chew on.

While we were tucked away in meetings, three young ladies took care of all the young kids! Christi is here working with our Mbale teammates, the Tuningas. Jessica and Alisha are visiting the Tuiningas for a couple of weeks. They graciously put on a great kids program and it was a big hit. Thank you again! Then there was some good pool time as well. Very happy kids.

apparently they needed to work on their ninja skills


 We have just now spent two nights in Kampala (further south) staying with our friends the Ebys, getting several immunizations (Jacob's poor limbs!) and some work done on the vehicle. So tomorrow we start making the trek back. It has been a nice week out for which we are thankful.
