Oh the trials!

I had reported that Mulago was going to keep Joseph til Friday I am sorry to say Joseph was chased out of Mulago the next morning with instructions to return to Mulago June 1st as the Bone DR was now on leave til that date. They were also told that at that time his leg would probably just have to be removed. (Not acceptable)

Irene (one of our workers) spent all day traveling to different private clinics with him Tuesday. She was referred to a private clinic that just specializes in bones. They came home Tuesday evening. They have returned to Kampala this morning with the intention of going to the private bone clinic this morning.

Irene has called and informed me that they will return Tuesday to the Bone clinic for TREATMENT!!! Praise the Lord!!! Please pray with us that Joseph's leg will respond to the surgery and for healing within the leg, we are praying that the leg is saved. Also pray God's will in everything and also for His glorification!!!
I want to deeply thank those families that have donated for the cost of Josephs care, when I first met him, he looked so defeated and lifeless, I have seen hope and smiles all week, even in the midst of all the nonsense with Mulago and running to all the different Dr's.  To see so much change in him, I see hope, I see Jesus! Thank you all for being the hands and feet of Jesus for this young man!

This is the young man working for HCU on our land. He is tending our crops and goats, making sure people do not steal what we have planted etc. I need to start carrying around our video camera, because when Emma handed this young man his first money from HCU, he grabbed it, jumped up and down, and ran at his Grandma screaming, and then handed it and hugged his Grandma!  This young man is also Josephs brother, and he is taking care of his Grandma, sick Grandpa, and 5-6 children, on whatever money he is making from us, and he is now so proud!

Here he is harvesting our ripe coffee from our land!

Blessings to All!
