I'll start with the image that's been struck in my head for the past year.
Lainya is a payam 50 km East of Yei. Road Trip!
My friends
Background is a Church we were dedicating.
more.....
We'll always be friends....
Julius, little Paul, Aloro, Issac, Micheal
Two months in the field and this goes from "frozen cholera" to a sweet, sweet icy treat. 3 Refrigerators in the whole town, yet this guys bikes around with frozen sugar water...hmmm. Oh well, I'll
take two!Typical 16x7m Church. Between the South (us) and the Nuba mtns, we've build over 200. Quite a feat our Lord has allowed us to participate it
Quad ride...almost made it to Congo. I actually fell off that day and sustained a minor concussion. Later in the day I found myself aimlessly walking through town. That's what aspirin's for...
Yei Hospital.
Sadly enough, it's been said that Southern Sudan has the highest infant/birth
mortality rate in the world. Over the course of this past year, I've had three close friends lose infants.This would be a last resort for any ex-patriot seeking medical treatment.
Dinner Time. Not bad...not great, but not bad.
The Indiana Jones plane we fly all around South Sudan in.
I hate this plane. It hates me.
A week home was all I needed!Thanks baby.
FYI - I failed to bring my camera on trips to Cape Town, S.A. and Zanzibar, Tanzania (i forget a lot) Recap: Cape Town is far and away my favorite city in the world..fun downtown, striking mountains that lead to pristine beaches. Zanzibar, great backpackers spot. I got sick....really really sick, end of story.
I too can carry water on my head!
God Loves Sudan
Bedededdeedde that's all folks!
Friends, I hope that gives you a small glimpse of what I've seen, felt, and experienced over the past year. There's too much for one post so I'll add another before I see everyone in 2 weeks.
May God always lead us by His Spirit.....
