We have had the wonderful blessing of being able to spend the last month here in Phoenix Arizona visiting with the people who sponsored Rob through senior high school and university. Their gift of the flights here and the past month has been a blessing we felt so incredibly humbled by.
We have loved getting to know them more and having the opportunity for them to see what their support has meant over the years and where Rob is today because of that support.
Its been lovely for me to get to know them and for them to have the time with Hezekiah.
We have loved all the adventures and sight seeing we have done while here.
As they are cattle ranches we got to enjoy some time at a few of their ranches enjoying the country life and Rob got to do some firsts like riding a horse and other fun things.
The grand canyon has been a HUGE highlight for us both - the handiwork of God on full display that's for sure. We also have loved the colder weather and getting to have fun in the snow.....
and exploring Indian ruins has been great fun ... we even found some old pottery pieces and arrow heads in the indian ruins on the sponsors ranch.... was very cool
Besides those highlights we have loved spending time with robs sponsors and other new friends like Randy and Julie who Rob met many years ago when they came to Uganda .... and we have been so blessed by Ten40 church where we have been attending while here. We have made some great friends and felt so much support from their Pastor and the whole church. We are excited about how God ordained this meeting with them and to see where God takes it.
We have been making memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.
Hezekiah has grown so much in the last month and has started crawling and pulling himself up on things.... our little man who dr's kept saying was quite behind in some areas has taken great leaps this month. Every day we are reminded of what a miracle and blessing he is.
We have also been so blessed to be able to share our dreams and visions for our ministry in Uganda and to be able to receive the so much support from churches and people here.
This has been a huge blessing to meet with people who see our heart and vision especially as they've never met us before.
The support in Australia has been huge too but to see that translate to here also has been a wonderful blessing.
Rob and I have been able to spend some time dreaming and coming up with some of the finer details of our next chapter and what the days ahead will look like. We are excited and nervous all at the same time.
We head off from here on Monday back home to Uganda.
I am very excited for people to meet Hezekiah and for ZIah to see his homeland.
He was such a wonderful flyer on the long haul flights to USA I believe he will be just as wonderful on the three flights to Uganda.
Thank you for your continued love and support
