Team (minus one) plus visitors head back up to Karamoja

The team left Jinja at 7am, alas allowing me to rehab in Jinja. Tom and Miriam are joined by Simon and Carina Gruber, whom will be with us for 2 months on a survey visit. Ideally, they would join us in the ministry. They have worked with Campus Crusade in Germany, Simon with a theology background and Carina a newly qualified (January) PhD veterinarian. They've both been in Uganda before and came across our team description thru their sending agency, DMG, and Pioneers. Pray that the Lord would reveal to them the plans He has for them, pray that they eyes and hearts would be open to the Karamojong. Meanwhile, I keep getting stronger- even venturing out for church and lunch with the team on Sunday- a break from my seemingly constant sleeping, staccato-ed by food so I can keep my medicines down. Unfortunately, Monday I regressed a bit- so Miriam had me tested again. It was positive. With all the meds I've been on, I would've thought the antigens would have cleared...but, will follow up with a microscopic test that looks for parasites. Thanks for your prayers. Jean

    Oh Jean.. it's so good to "see" you on here. I'm so sorry for this sickness, those always seem to be the most discouraging times. I'm praying God can use it as a time of renewal for you also. We love you,

    update - doing well, just sleeping alot - still waiting on blood test results to come back from Kampala - thanks for your prayers.
    meanwhile, the team is busy back up in Nabilatuk, building, language and eating fine Karamojong delights of Ostrich eggs and dik-dik meat...Jean
