A lazy late start today was appreciated by all.. Breakfast, western style, cereal and toast, than getting ready for church.
Church was an African celebration of music, movement and prayer, followed by a sermon by our very own AB..... on love.
Corey, Helen and Rob spent some time in with the kids in Sunday school teaching them songs and giving them stickers...
Lunch at Suubi house was followed by relaxation for some, playing with kids at Village of Hope for others and then some went for a walk up Monkey mountain to check out the day time view.
Late afternoon, we headed off to check out where the River Nile begins. The Nile begins it 9000km journey to Egypt right here in Jinja, so we went to check it out, went for a short boat tour to see where it meets Lake Victoria. We then ran the gauntlet through all the souvenir sellers, some of us not coming out of that unscathed, and a few shillings lighter.
After that we headed off for a relaxing evening at 2 Friends (one of our favorite restaurants) in Jinja. Great food was enjoyed by all and we nearly sold Carly (one of our team members) to our waiter for 90 goats and 10 cows!!
Tomorrow, we get serious again and add to the great work we did last week on house 9. We're all a bit tired now, but looking forward to what the next week will bring!!!
As usual, check out the pics for a visual impression........

Thanks so much for the updates. Makes me want to be there more than ever. God bless you all in your time there.
Great updates team - THANKS! Can't believe the water level is so high on the little island - I have photoes from 6 months ago with grass at the base of the source sign...
