We got some time away from the Office and went with the other couples to a Native Cultural Evening where they had dancing and native food. The place was called Ndera and the dancing was colorful and lively. They did dances from different areas including Uganda, Rwanda and Sudan. The food was BBQ pork, goat and chicken and native vegetables.
Lots of Shaking going on.
Ugandan's can do amazing things with drums
This super market is near our home.
The Kids at Ntinda love it when we bring our camera to church. They pose and position themselves in front of everyone.
We had a great week. It was busy as usual at the office but we are catching on to what we are supposed to be doing so it is getting easier. On Sunday afternoon we had an opportunity to go out teaching with the Sister missionaries. We met 5 different families and taught them. All were very interested and asked lots of good questions. All that we met were Christian and most know the bible quite well and are eager to know more. What a treat to be around people who openly admit that they know and love the Savior and want to learn more about him. It is evident in their culture that they are Christian because of their friendliness and tolerance of each other and of strangers. We always are greeted with a friendly smile and wave where ever we go. I gave a picture of Christ with children to two little boys on the way to school one morning and they were so happy. The older brother, about 5 years old said to the younger one, "Look, it is Jesus". If only we could all be such a happy people and eager to know the Savior.
