Finally, the sewing machine

Some of you were involved in helping our nightguard's family purchase a new sewing machine after their last one was stolen.  Below is a picture of it.  It is difficult to give perspective but this sewing machine and the table its on takes up a quarter of their living space.  Ian and Celia Roxburgh from my home church in Edinburgh were visiting and so we were able to go down together to visit Moses and Robinah in their one roomed home.  They were overjoyed that we came to visit and to spend time with them.  It was fun to listen to their stories and hear their perspective on issues relating from politics to how much wives cost.  This is not done in monetary value but with cows and goats.  Moses has been married for a long time now but he still owes a least one cow and some goats to Robinah's family.

I wonder how many cows and goats I am worth?  :)

On a serious note thanks to all of you who made this possible.  There is a very happy family here in Kampala because of your contribution.  A big thank you from Moses and Robinah.
