Update. Update. Update.

I’m so overwhelmed and humbled at the generosity of everyone as I raised money on my GoFundMe for Kids Club. We are just shy of $4k!!! Unbelievable. As we distribute eggs for the children and use the leftover money in other areas, I will keep you updated with adorable pictures and stories of what God is doing!

I wanted to give you guys an overview of what I am doing everyday at The James Place (property where HEAL ministries is in Jinja). Here is my tentative schedule as I am training to take over some the roles of our Operations Manager (Helene) who is leaving in December.

During the week, we get home from work, make dinner, workout (on a good day), shower, hangout in the kitchen & talk, and end up watching episodes of Blind Spot (our chosen tv show to binge).

Life in Jinja:

-sweat dripping down my legs

-headbands = necessity

-babies peeing on you

-rice & beans with added hot sauce

-fans on fans on fans

-apron around my waist

-following Helene around with my notebook

-break out dance parties

-learning how to make baskets and pottery

-slowly learning some phrases in Luganda

-ants are not harmless, their bites HURT

-belly laughing everyday

-needing a kindle because of how many books you read

-taking your shoes off a bazillion times a day

-^^crocs are a lifesaver

-having a love/hate relationship with social media

-holding onto letters more tightly than you ever have

-friends who skip the friend stage and become like sisters

-wrestling everyday and fighting for the truth that God is good in the midst of suffering
