Here it is actually a complement for someone to tell a woman "Wow, you've put on some weight!" Most women don't want to be skinny, or even slim. Very different to the culture I'm familiar with!
Simon & Aggie work as missionaries in Kampala, Uganda, volunteering with International Missionaries for Christ (IMFC). They also have their own ministries: "Aggie's Arts" which helps impoverished women in Kampala's urban slum areas, and "Kisoro Kids" which assists needy families to educate their children. Their sending & facilitating church is Life's Journey Church, Huntsville, Alabama.
Simon was born in Australia and lived there until 1995 when he moved to the U.S. to study and work in Atmospheric Science. In 2007 he moved to Kampala, Uganda, and married Aggie.
Aggie, born in Uganda, is the mother of 6 children, understands 50 of Uganda's ~50 languages, and speaks 8 fluently! For more info, go to www.ugandajourney.org
