Though we were thrilled that a restaurant in Kampala had a playground, we were a bit hesitant when the playhouse was 40 feet in the air with no back railing and the end of the slide was 4 feet from the ground!

  1. I found this blog after T & N Johnson spoke @ church Sunday. My heart has been unable to let go of the challenges that the people there must be experiencing. More than that though, I am praising our KING for sending the families to serve the Uganda people and bring the good news to their hearts! God bless your beautiful family and the souls that are receiving truth! My prayer is that they will spread God's love abundantly, and that you all find joy in the God who gives strength to the weak, and sight to the blind:) I admire your family in such a big way, my prayers for your family will be fernant and abundant. Please send me an email if there is anything in particular that you would like our family to mail to your family! It would be an honor:). nancy Johnson led a bible study that I recently attended, she talked of you all and i feel like I know you! Hopefully we'll meet one day. Love, prayers and blessings from my home toy yours- Tina fisher

  2. So good to get caught up with events in and around Bundi. The "mud" pics remind me of Amy and Travis pics that we have when the two of you were dating. Good to stay young at heart. Looking forward to seeing you in October. Always praying for you and the rest of the team. Love you. Dad Lang
