The Face of Akorro In Karamoja
It has been quite a while since my last post but it seems work is getting the most of me these days. The food distributions continue to go forward and right now we are providing life saving food rations to nearly 540,000 people. April and May provided Karamoja with some hope of agricultural production as the rains came and numerous agencies including Samaritan's Purse provided inputs to the local farmers. June however greeted us with no rain and now the knee high crops are wilting in the face of what seems to be yet another drought (see All Africa - Karamoja Drought). The last month has also seen my physical health deteriorate due to a combination of malaria and a week long battle with food poisoning, however, it seems I am recovering and now I'm just trying to add weight to my scrawny 112lbs frame.

Ruco and Krisit,
It seems hard to find the right words to share with you. I believe when we cannot find the words to say the Spirit gives us the words to share with others. As I sit hear and listen for the voice of God, I hear him say to me, "If you have done it to the least of these you have done it unto me"....all you see, all you touch, all you feed, all you share are for his created children and His purpose...you are there to show and teach that purpose and what a fabulous job you are doing. Our rewards are not hear, but remember He, the author and finisher of our faith is the record keeper....and there is not one jot nor tittle that He does not write down. I love you both, I am so very proud of you...I wish I could come and be with you for a while....it would be good for all of us ! Love you, Roz
Pragtige fotos seun, mis julle baie
