Well, we are all back in Uganda again. Jaden arrived back in the country last week and a new addition, Corrie arrived just after him. We are totally excited as we are expecting two or three more new workers to join us in the next month or so. The work is needed so much! I wish it was just as easy as going to the camps everyday and feeling the amazing spirit that God places there through his people. However, just getting to the camps for one day seems to take about 10 days of preparation. Shaunessy and Corrie have been meeting with people constantly about constantly adapting our HIV work to the current situation. The problems we face with HIV are overwhelming. God has been blessing their meetings as they have pursued the best way to touch the millions in Uganda who are infected with HIV/AIDS.
Bethany and Marianne will graduate their first class of abstinence students this week! We are so excited as the progress made in the lives of these girls and their mothers has been so great! We are excited that another group will soon be going through the abstinence training.
One of our staff members, Denis, lost his aunt yesterday in such a tragic situation. There seem to be so many opportunistic infections that are attacking the HIV-positive population in the camps. It is so hard to stand back and see that the most serious cases are out of our control.
Please keep praying as God guides and directs our medical work, our abstinence teaching, our health education, ministry and HIV/AIDS work here in Uganda. God Bless you
