Our second (and last) week in Uganda continued to be as eventful as the first. We visited the one of the local hospitals and spent time in the infant ward where we prayed with the families over the children, gave out balloons & stickers, colored, and made fun little things with colored pipe cleaners. The minute we brought out the little red balloons and the color books and crayons, there was a small gathering of mothers and babies around us. The mom’s seem instantly cheered by the little things we brought. It was good to see them smile after feeling the heaviness of worry in the room. Also, being able to pray with them was an amazing experience. Feeling the power of prayer and knowing that God was listening and answering was overwhelming. I was with Florence, one of The Girlz from Come Let’s Dance, and as she prayed in Luganda and I prayed quietly, even though I didn’t understand what she was saying, I know that God was working.
