God is working!

The last few days have been interesting to say the least!

Satan still is still trying to block us in various ways but God continues to prevail ( as He always will)

Timmo took us into the village where they found David, he was showing us where they found him, meeting his Grandfather and the people of his village. On the way home, the cars windows, speedometer, mileage reading, air conditioner, and rpm gage all quit instantly, no groaning or moaning just instant stop.

We were scheduled to go into Kampala Monday to meet with the Minister of Gender, so Henry called the mechanic and scheduled us in. We left at 8 am, Beka tracked the night guards dog poo all in the car, so we got out and scrubbed the car. we piled back in and were off at 8:30 am, we got to Kampala, and I kept thinking I saw steam coming from engine, but those of you that know Kampala know its hard to tell if its your car or the one jammed next to you. I finally casually said, I think we are overheating! We pull over, sure enough, we are overheating. At this time, its already 10, and we meet with the minister at 12. We put all our water bottles into the radiator, and a mechanic from across the street comes to check things out. We find out that whatever happened Sunday afternoon took out our fan AND the alternator because now the car will not start.  We get a jump and we are off! Well the mechanic that looked at it, took out a fuse and it must have been something to do with keeping the car running, because we barely moved and the car stalls out!!!, (10:30) Henry decides to call mechanic car is going to. He sends a breakdown (aka tow truck, although it isn't a tow truck more like a car pull/lift). We call Ernest and ask to be picked up. everyone finally shows at 11:00am, at this point in time I am starting to panic as I know that if we do not make the Ministers on time we are in trouble. (Just a nice little feeling from God). car is finally loaded on top this contraption.

That's Henry and Ernest on the left.

Finally we are on our way 11:30!!!! Oh No!!
We go straight to mechanic, and drop off car, meanwhile things are just not moving fast enough!

We all pile into Ernest's van and head towards Ministers Office, we get there with 1 minute to spare!!!
The minister is in quite a hurry, he glances through file, asks a few questions, see my children and asks if the white ones are mine, and I answer no, they all are mine, we adopted the 2 Ugandans almost 4 years ago. He instructs secretary to write our referral letter and declares he knows we will take good care of the orphans!!! Praise God!!!

WooHoo, almost everything is complete to register NGO, only 2 more steps and 1 is on me. Writing Randys and I CV, or resume. Ewww! Please someone come work in the imaginary office!!! I HATE this part! The other step is meeting with the RDC here in Mityana! Everything else is completed! Aren't God's blessings wonderful???

When we sit back and look at what God has accomplished in 2 and a 1/2 short weeks we are so astounded and awed that no words can do justice!!!

Please keep praying for us and HCU! Your prayers are working God hears you! We see the evidence!
