Arua Photo Posts, part one

Cornerstone Veritas recently traveled to Arua, in the far north of Uganda.  It's a LONG bus journey, but made much better by traveling with 3 wonderful team members!  We were given a small house to share for the week, on the compound where we were working.  It was a beautiful time of seeing people changed and transformed.  We were well taken care of, and experienced a ton of joy and delight.  The next several posts will be photos to show you what our course was like.  Sorry the quality isn't great... still struggling with cameras.

The most epic game of Duck Duck goose ever!

The kids had a BLAST playing with Joshua and Carol.  After Duck Duck goose they played many more games as Jan and I talked.  By the end there were about 25 children who had gathered and were laughing and loving having fun.

Sadly, Bernard's Aunt passed away during the week and he had to travel to the funeral.  He was away for 3 days and we really missed him for sure!

More photos tomorrow!
