This week we are getting prepared for the trip to Uganda. Actually, we’ve been preparing for the last several weeks: Uganda visa, medications specifically for visiting Africa, putting together the 5 teachings I will present, correspondence with the organizers, and more. Debbie doesn’t usually travel with me, but we are both glad for this opportunity for us!

We simply ask that you keep us in your prayers. We leave Friday and will return Monday, July 25. I will be blogging throughout, so check back within he next week.

My only regret is that I will miss visiting with Pastor Tung from Vietnam, who will be at CCS on Sunday, the 17th. Hopefully, I will see him in Vietnam in the near future.

Blessings,

David

It is mid-June, and I have so much going on in the next few months.

Next month, Debbie and I will be traveling to Entebbe, Uganda in order to participate in a retreat for pastors and wives from East African nations. It will be our first visit to Africa (well, in 1985 I did visit Egypt, technically on the continent but so much different from where we’ll be) and we are looking forward to it.

Shortly after returning, I will be going to Havana, Cuba. It is not a ministry trip per se, but I hope to make contact with a couple of pastors in the area of Havana.

If you’ve seen the link here, you also know that we have a tour of the Holy Land planned for October 24-November 3. I hope you can join us. Take a look at the video on this site!

In the meantime, there are so many activities with family and friends and at CC Silverdale. Life is full and God is good!

Blessings to you all,

David

Had a really great weekend. On Saturday I went into Cajamarca and hiked up a very steep street from the town plaza. Then, climbed the 120 steps up to a church overlooking the city. Then hiked up to a vista above the church which afforded a magnificent panorama of the city. It was a climb, for sure, but worth the effort. It was also a beautiful, sunny day. I went back down to the plaza and took a cab to a mall, where I had lunch, then a cab to where I am staying.

Then last night, we had a wonderful Passover Seder dinner at the school. What a great experience! All of the students and staff were there. We all had a wonderful evening.

This morning we had a church service at the school. This evening, I taught at the weekly worship service. Afterward, a group of 6 of us went out for a delicious chicken dinner (see my FB post).

I am really enjoying the time here. I am looking forward to the new week.

Thanks for praying!

David
