Today was my big day to go to the conference.  I dropped Kathryn off at Akanyijuka for school and stayed for a while to play with the children and took some photos – check my flickr site for some of them.  After this I went to Jackson’s place to talk and pray as we do every week, and we had a good time.  Then Annie asked for me to stay and have lunch, which was really enjoyable, simple but enjoyable.  After this however it was off to the conference.  I must say it was not enjoyable, but not quite as bad as I had worked myself into thinking it was going to be.  But Jackson and I were in agreeance of many things happening there.  The more I think about how we are to encourage one another and to reach those who are without Jesus, the more I think that we can really only be effective on a personal one to one basis.  I think of how Jackson and I are meeting and people back home that received this and those who did not.

Anyway I am feeling good that my visit to the conference is over and I am very excited that I am walking in God’s will with Akanyijuka.  To impact someone’s life, one or two at a time is such a good feeling, whether it is to help them materially (as with Akanyijuka), emotionally, spiritually or to just encourage them in some other way.  Enough rambling, just check out those photos!!!
