Arrival

We made it to the month of June! Oh, and we're in Uganda. This is DaviS, not DaviD, if you couldn't tell.

But, we made it safe. Our plane flights were long and tiring, though we didn't really get much sleep on them. We arrived in Entebbe airport at 7 or so at night. Grace was there to pick us up and we went to a hotel and stayed the night there. We were in huts! It was awesome. I definitely felt like I was in Africa, as if actually being in Africa wasn't enough.

We woke up this morning and drove to Kampala, the capital, and got to see the missionaries in the Kampala church. We even saw another LST team that we met at GO Weekend there! It was great to see some familiar faces and talk to them about their experience so far.

We just ate lunch, and are now in an internet cafe updating our blog (obviously) and sending emails to our families. We'll be on our way soon to Jinja, where we will actually be for most of our time here. It's only been 2 days, and I have so much more to say! Don't worry, I won't bore you much longer. It's weird to think that we already have all these great stories and experiences, and we haven't even really arrived at our city where we'll be doing our LST work. God has already blessed us with a great missionary, Grace, who's very helpful and good to talk to. I know the next 6 weeks are going to be amazing, and can't wait to tell you guys all about it.

Please pray for our information meeting, where we will meet our readers for the first time on Thursday, and pray that our first meetings with readers in actual sessions goes well also.
