Friday 15th April

Hey!
So this is my blog for the next 8 weeks when I'll be in Uganda working with African Inland Mission (AIM) as a physiotherapist with the Mukisa Foundation. Mukisa is a day centre that is run for children with Motor Impairments and their Families. The Kids get physio and schooling and the parents get to help out with therapy but also have English lessons themselves too.
I have a full day of flying tomorrow starting at 06.05 with my first flight Edinburgh to Amsterdam then onto Nairobi before touching down in Uganda at 23.20. There I will hopefully be reunited with my luggage, get a visa and meet the driver who will take me to the guesthouse where I'll be staying the night.  I'll be orientated on Monday and then will be moving into my new accommodation for the 8 weeks I'll be at Mukisa.
For now if you could pray for:

  • Safe travel
  • that I'll make all my connections
  • Luggage (that it will arrive in Uganda at the same time as I do!)
  • Visa 
  • safe travel within the country
  • the children, families and staff that I'll be working with at Mukisa.
  • settling into the climate and lifestyle
I'm hoping that I'll have some form of internet as I'm more or less in Kampala the Capital so I'll try to update you as much as I can through this Blog and Facebook and I have my camera so hopefully there will be pictures too!. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me this far through sponsorship and prayer will try to post up addresses etc for those of you who like to write!  please continue to remember me in your prayers! The next time I post up here I'll hopefully be in Uganda! until next time! :)
Blessings
