Hi all! This week we'd like to share with you a video that a friend of ours back in the U.S. put together from footage he took when he was here in 2006. Actually I was on this same trip which was my first time in Uganda, and the beginning of this whole thing!
I could watch this video 100 times and not get sick of it! It captures so well the contrasts here - suffering and yet joy, poverty and yet astounding beauty, apparent hopelessness and yet so much hope! It will also give you a broader picture of life here in the city of Kampala than we've been able to give so far in our videos.
As well as all this, it captures the heart of the team here (many of whom you'll see in the video) - the hope, life, excitement and anticipation we have as we see God at work!
"Greater things have yet to come, greater things are still to be done in this city!"
Enjoy!
Simon & Aggie.
