Last evening as we packed for Uganda, the one thought on every one's mind was how generous and supportive people in our community. Amazingly we fit just about everything in the bags we had...shoes, school supplies, food, soccer balls, baby blankets, children's books, bibles, t-shirts, medical supplies, water bottles donated and packed by local high school students with ORS (Oral Re-hydration Solution), T-shirts, medical supplies, baby formula, toys and hats knitted by the woman in the local prison, tooth brushes and tooth paste donated by local dentists, the list goes on...
After wards we gathered together for a team meeting and short devotional lead by Syd and Chad. "Expect Miracles", Syd said.
Then she said the only outstanding need was a wheel chair for Emma (see post dated Monday, May 10, 2010, A Request for Help). I can get wheelchair, one of the doctors on out team volunteered. He admitted he hadn't read most of Syd's emails but it at that moment, it didn't matter. We have what we need!
