Tomorrow (Monday) evening we will have been in Uganda for 3 full weeks! Overall, our flights were uneventful, which is a good thing! Aubrey Anne and Genevieve both did well traveling, which was an answer to prayer. We then began the adjustment to Ugandan time (Uganda is 7 hours ahead of the EST in the US). This caused for some rather sleepless nights, but we made it!

| We were able to have a whole row (4 seats) to ourselves both flights. |

| On the way to the airport, Genevieve enjoyed the last drops of Lauren's tea. |
After resting at a guesthouse near the airport for two nights, we made the 7 hour trip to our house in Gulu. It was so good to be finished traveling! When we arrived to our house in Gulu, the guys taking care of our house were waiting for us! Our house was in good shape, considering we were gone for 15 months, with no one living in it. This was definitely an answer to prayer! In Africa, there are many insects (termites, ants, other wood eating insects, etc.) that can destroy wood, cloth, and furniture.

| Aubrey Anne loves exploring the market! |
My sister Susanna also came with us and stayed for almost 2 weeks to help us on the flight and with adjusting in Uganda. We enjoyed having her stay with us so very much! She was a big help with the girls as they adjusted to our new home. Thank-you everyone for praying for our trip!
First, we are nearing 100% of our support raising goal! We would like to thank all of you who prayed specifically for this need and also were so generous in your support, we greatly appreciate it!
Some of you may have heard that our youngest daughter, Genevieve, was sick 10 days ago. We are grateful the she recovered; thank-you all for praying for her.
Please continue to pray for our family as we continue our adjustment and find good rhythms as a family here in Uganda after being away for 15 months.
Also pray for our work here, that the Lord would use us here and provide opportunities to advance His Kingdom during this time.
