We are Attlanta bound! Even though we have been traveling for 39 hours so far the girls are all in good spirits and holding up really well. we spent several hours waiting for our plane in kampala, and everyone was dreading the 7 hour layover in Cairo… but the Lord had a special suprise for us there! We were escorted on a guided tour of the guiza piramids and tthe greatt sphinx of egypt at virtually no cost. It was a blessing of blessings! we have been in frankfurt for about 10 hours with a few left to go. We have all been tryying to take advantage of this time tto cattch a few zzz`s. Some of my coffee lovers have had their first cup of coffee in a month and they are very happy! Please keep us in your prayers as we engage in the lastt leg of our journey ttogether… it has been an emotional return so far and the reality of our team being seperated by time and distances in the very near future is settling in pretty hard on some of us.
We cannot wait to see all of you who have been waiting so patiently to meet us at airports all accross the nation and globe!

Thank you soo much for the update! How exciting to get tours in Egypt! something everyone will remember for sure.. I imagine it is so hard to have left Uganda and now the preparations of seperating with one another.. a second family I imagine has come out of Team Uganda! My hope is that the friendships and bonds can span the states and nations, and remain connected. You ALL have had an amazing experience that forever links you, and your hearts. All things through Christ are posssible and I know this team is one of His amazing works. God Bless you and Aaron for all your leadership and love, your guidance and example. You are loved and appreciated not only by the team, but the families as well.
Safe travels Team Uganda!!!! Until Tomorrow ~
Lovingly,
Amber’s Mom 🙂
Poor Akari still have to fly back to Okinawa, Japan.. I hope the girls post one last story and like to read them.

I hope all the girls post their story – the short version (if there is one) – on here also. I think it would be great to read how this trip affected everyone and the similarities and differences between them. I’m so proud of everyone in this team! What a great life-changing experience! God Bless you all!!!!
Love,

Our prayers, compassion, and love go out to Dr. K’s family and friends ~ in the U.S. and in Uganda…an amazing man who touched sooo many lives. I know he touched Amber’s. We know God is cradling Dr. K in his arms and welcoming him home.
