Greetings from Uganda. Hope you are all ok and doing well. We are fine and the Lord Has been so good to us in all ways. Just to update you a bit about what we are doing at the moment, we have started on raising temporary structures for the nursery and primary school which will start next year in February. We need you prayers because we still have a lot of needs for the school like, desks for the children, scholars tic materials e.g. text books, pens, exercise books, chalk, etc.
