Team Awesome was the name of our foursome to Mombasa. I think it's pretty obvious why we were named that. =)
Aren't the pictures amazing that I posted? A few from the beaches and one from a street view in Mombasa. I think we put some more pictures on facebook, but Cassandra Basnett has them posted, if you want to become her friend. =)
Team Sexy Anointed People is the name of our fivesome headed to Congo. Again, obvious.
We are currently in Kampala, Uganda. I can sense a huge difference already between Kenya and Uganda. Kenya is quite religious feeling and everyone stares at you when you are white; however, here no one stares and everyone seems laid back and quite friendly. Tomorrow we head on another all day bus ride to Kigali, Rwanda. Then Monday we take our final bus to Goma, Congo.
I don't think we will have the internet very much, so keep praying.
What I know to expect: no restaurants, no banks, no goodies, expensive everything (cause it's a war zone), electricity is questionable, water on a daily basis is questionable. Also, I should expect friendly, passionate, fashionable people, hard, horrible stories.
What I would love you to pray against: hopelessness and traumatic experiences of the Congolese.
What I would love for you to pray for: open hearts and doors, radical revival, creative miracles, ability to process the things we hear and see in a healthy way, team chemistry, outpouring of love and creative ideas, strategies of the best ways to minister to people, and anything else God lays on your heart.
I miss everyone and will write again when I can. Love you.
