Work in the Garden

Finally got the computer up and running again and was able to gather
enough signal through the rainstorm and clouds tonight to upload a
picture (i've been sitting here watching the 1 picture upload for the
last HOUR).

Hopefully the signal will be better tomorrow and i can upload some of
the amazing pictures that i have been taking for all of you following.

This picture is of Luke and our good friend Emanuel as we work in the
field preparing the demonstration area yesterday morning.

Emanuel is a great kid (23 years old) with a very good heart who has
been a good friend to us while we are here and was friends with Max
when the group was here in January. His story is very sad though. His
parents were murdered and he was taken by the LRA and forced to fight
with them as a boy soldier. He managed to survive, escape and find his
two younger brothers 6 and 11 whom he now cares and provides for.

He is always smiling but when you look him in the eyes and shake his
hand it is hard to even fathom the amount of things that he has seen
and endured in his young life.

We taught him and his friends how to play ultimate frisbee this
afternoon until the rain chased us off the field. They all LOVED it
and i am sure that it will be the next sport sensation of Uganda.

It's 11pm here and so im off to bed early so i can be rested for the
marathon church service here tomorrow. Church starts at 7:30am and
usually gets out around 1pm. And due to lake of a translator we will
understand about a sentence of what will be said. Should be
interesting to say the least.

Peace and Love,

Adam
