Greetings and felicitations - We're KKAB and we're coming to you live (so far) from Karamoja - in the last couple of weeks, we've traveled a lot of miles: Jinja to Nabilatuk, Nabilatuk to Moroto, Moroto to Kotido to Kaabong, Kaabong to Timu (don't look for it, you'll go blind; you won't find that one on any map unless you come out here), Timu to Kaabong to Kotido, and now Kotido to Moroto (now, be honest, did you really want to know all that? - Indiana Jones once told Marian, "it's not the years, it's the miles" - sorry, Indy, but I gotta disagree, a lot of those miles took years off my warranty) - truck is still holding up, smiles remain uncracked, vision for the lost continues unabated and getting sharper by the meeting ... oh, yeah, so far, we haven't done any actual "work," if by "work" you mean language and culture learning or any form of gospel ministry among the lost - so far, it's been "meetings" - and I say that in the most appreciative and productive (as well as least ironic) sense - we've traveled all those miles in order to see people who will either be part of our future team or partner with us in other ways - now for all you people out there rolling your eyes (or even rolling them up into your head, falling to the floor and frothing at the mouth at the mere notion of "meetings"), let me remind you that God is big (no, bigger ... no, keep going ... nope, bigger ... keep going, I'll tell you when to stop) and He is well able to make "meetings" work to the good - we've gotten good advice; we've thought big thoughts and dreamed big things and hammered out details on plans that will likely be obsolete by the time we all get together to do them - but all in all, God is great and He is more clearly good with every passing day
- blessings ya'll
Tom
