Back to Gulu

Hello friends! The team arrived safely in Gulu today. I wrote one last blog while in Adjumani, but due to internet issues, we were unable to post it. Oh well.
Leaving Adjumani was bittersweet. The hardest part about meeting new people and making new friends is having to say goodbye when it is time to leave. But as Jared talked about on Sunday in church, even if we never see our new friends again in this lifetime, we will see them again in heaven.
On the other hand, for those of us who haven't seen Jennie Otte while here in Uganda, we were able to meet her here in Gulu. So much fun. It is good to be with her again. We were walking around Gulu today remembering what it was like the last time we were here. So much has changed, and yet so much is still the same.
Not much else to say today, but since we now have better access to email, we will hopefully update again. Love to you all.
