Back in Uganda part 1

So it is our first morning in Entebbe, Uganda.  Flights as usual are long and tiring but the highlight for our traveling was Kristen Cason's idea of us receiving a letter each day from someone back home.  Jmac (aka Jason) wrote me an awesome letter. It was so encouraging, supporting and reminded me how special I am to have a bro-like that. "Iron sharpens iron!" Our first flight went from Atlanta to London (Lhr).  Everyone was scattered through our section of the plane so it was difficult to communicate and the addition of the multitude of babies cry made it even more trying.  We ended up a little bit late for our transfer and had to run through Lhr. Thanks God for the little mum who helped us with express connections getting us through lines and security. Also a local called me "mate." This was probably the highlight of Lhr for me! The second flight from Lhr to Entebbe seemed better (perhaps it lacked the babies crying)  in my opinion except for the fact i missed the ending of Moneyball.  We had some baggage issues but I really see this as a plus because last time we lost all of our checked bags only to have them returned a couple days later.  This time it was only 6 of the 15.  We got settled in our rooms around 145am and I woke up around 4:20 because I wasn't tired and I had sermon ideas spinning around in my head. (I found out earlier that Isaac wants me to preach some on Sunday...surprise) Maybe I should start take John Wesley more seriously and be able to "preach, pray, and die" at any given moment. I am excited to see what God has in store here. Keep us in your prayers and I love you guys.
