Uganda Mission Trip

Joe's in Uganda on a Mission Trip with our church. It's something I whole-heartily believe he was called to do. We've spent (ok, I'VE spent) the last few weeks preparing, shopping, and packing for this trip (if it were up to Joe he would have hit Wal-mart on the way out the door to the airport). I don't know what God has in store for Joe while he's there, but I know it's big.

While Joe visits villages in Uganda, my challenge is surviving with the kids until he returns. So far, so good. Today was the first day that we had any behavior issue at all. But I'll be honest, it's not being at home with the kids that worries me, it's getting all of them up, dressed, fed, and out the door to my mom's house without being late. Yikes. The thought of it frightens me. I've done all I can do to prepare for our first day leaving in the morning. Clothing is ready, alarms are set, bags are packed. I'm just praying we get out the door by 7:15. Think we'll make it? I'm undecided.

So tonight I ask for your prayers. Prayers for our Uganda team as they travel from village to village. Prayers for wisdom and guidance, that God's will is carried through by our team. That they are God's hands and feet, that each and every person be touched by the Holy Spirit and be moved, drawing them closer to God every step of the way.
