Uganda
We are excited, apprehensive, and a bit sad. We are excited to return to East Africa, the area of the world where we first worked with MCC. We are apprehensive in that we don’t know what is ahead for us. And we are sad to leave family and friends even as we anticipate making many new friends.
We have accepted an assignment with Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) as interim MCC representatives for Uganda. We will be in Uganda for 12 to 18 months. As we write this blog we will introduce you to the people, projects, and scenery that becomes our new world.
In preparation for our leaving, we spent 2 weeks in Akron, PA, at the US MCC headquarters with a group of other persons preparing for various places in the world – Sudan, Tanzania, South Africa, Guatamala, Haiti, North Korea.
