Uganda

So, I’ve been travelling all around Africa!  Well, not in real life – but via the blogs of our many missionary bloggers in Africa.  So I thought I’d stop and share with you some of the posts I found!

• Do we take for granted the simple things – like electricity?  In Senegal, getting basic steady electricity can be a challenge, as we read in Power Cuts.
• And not to complain – but what about the ability to get good milk?  Well, some of us could live without it, but some of us couldn’t.  Here’s what a family in Madagascar has been dealing with – bad milk!
• On a more positive note, let’s head over to Sudan for something that is badly needed – good, solid training for leaders!  Take a look at Church Leadership Training (details)
• Working in South Africa, David points out that some Bible passages – that may seem very archaic and far away to you – may seem quite contemporary in other parts of the world.  Read All the rams which leap upon the cattle are ringstraked (Genesis 31).
• And how about an update about everything from the country of Niger?  Head on over and read Eleven in 2011.
• Take the time to get to know some real people in Ghana – The Privilege of Sharing our lives in Christ.
• Wow, how often do you face decisions like this?  Missionaries in Uganda want to share with you about this tough decision.
• I’m sorry – you’re under arrest.  For what, may I ask?  Find out what happened to this missionary in Liberia…
• It’s 435 years old!  What is?  Why, Luanda of course!  It’s the capitol of Angola.
• And this is totally unrelated to anything, but I was very excited to find this extraordinarily practical blog for those who aren’t eating gluten – and are living where perhaps it’s not so easy (not that it’s easy anywhere!).  So, from Senegal, check out Living GF in Dakar.
• And just one more – a video (below) from Mozambique, thanks to the Da Silva Family blog.
