Sunday and Monday

Yesterday we went off to Church as normal.  We go a bit earlier these days as Joshua and Zara are helping on host team.  They welcome people in at the door and hand out the offering envelopes.  They really enjoy it and Joshua is keen that we are never late :)  Below is a visual of them both with their friends.  Apologies for the quality of the photos...still need to get new camera.  Thank goodness I have one on my phone.

Unfortunately, we learned that whilst we were at church we had an attempted break-in to our house.  Thankfully the three men didn't get in and Chewy, our dog, scared them off.  We are in the midst of putting in new security measures round the house but our landlady has not picked the fastest workers.  For now we will need to have a guard on the compound while we are out.  Thankful that they didn't poison Chewy and she was able to give them the fright of their lives.   Please pray for our protection but we are also thankful they didn't break in while we were at home.

 

 

On a more positive note we had a treat after a trip to the Dentist...an ice-cream from KFC. Joshua and Zara are on half term so we enjoyed the delights of a Western franchise arriving in Kampala.  It feels quite surreal walking in there but I think we will get used to the occasional visit.

 

 

Oreo ice cream....It was a highlight for sure.

 

 

Then we just made it home before a wind storm came through and threw up all the dust into the air.....We couldn't see much beyond our house clearly and had to shut all the doors and windows...we were hoping for rain but only got a few spots.
