Serving Dinner

Today was one of the coolest days I have been a part of on any of the trips that I have been on. We woke up and ate breakfast like all other days and headed off to the school. We finished up our projects that we hadn't finished yet and then got to the best part of our day. Nations Changers school decided to provide a meal for all of the kids at the school as well as their parents. A couple of teachers at the school spent all day making a meal. Our kids got to help make the meal which was really neat. Seeing our kids sitting down and cooking with our Ugandan friends was the coolest picture of the kingdom. As the parents began to show up at the school, as well as members of the community who had heard that a meal was being provided, it began to look like the feeding of the 5000 from the bible. 

Godwin began to share some thoughts about caring for kids and the love he has for these kids, our student prepared to serve the food to all the students, parents, and members of the community.   Ours team started handing out plates of food and it was the coolest image of the kigd at work. There were so many people there, that some members of our team had to wash plates as they were turned in to use again. 

As people began to finish eating, it was near to sit back and watch our kids spread out and mingle with kids, meets parents, and just be a part of the breaking of bread together.  It was one of the coolest images, I wish there was a way to capture everything that was going on. 

We were very proud of our team today. They were tangibly the hands and feet of CHRIST today and it was so cool to be a part of it. There were some sad goodbyes after our meal as it was that last time we will see the kids. But such great memories.
