It was a great day in the field yesterday. The PRICELESS teachers and students are getting better all the time. Every day we meet the teachers are improving and getting more and more empowered and are enthusiastic about helping the situation in their community. It is very apparent that all of you are showering us with prayers.
It is now about to be rainy season and as we were in Otwal IDP camp under a tin roof God blessed us with the most beautiful, torrential downpour. It became so loud that the students couldn't hear the lesson so we had to stop. While we waited for it to quiet down my girls sang at the top of their lungs the most amazing African hymns and danced and jumped in a completely undignified, beautiful fashion. Whoa....can I just say that I love this place. That image will be planted in my head for a long time. He was glorified with praise as he flooded our place with his presence. Good things are happening and though there is a lot of darkness, our Father's light is magnificent in Northern Uganda!

Bethany,
What an awesome experience for God to stop your lessons and let you just praise Him in pounding rain. Your words are so meaningful and heartfelt. God changes our plans for the best. Thanks for sharing this.
I would really like to encourage the GRI team to write as much as possible on this blog. It is such an inspiration to read first hand about your work. Many of us are reading your words and always looking forward to the next time you write. We will keep praying.
