One of our own returns from Gospel work in Sudan

Dear Friends-

I am at my hotel on Monday morning in London.  The African part of the trip is finished.  Friendships were made with both the fellow countrymen from America who formed our work team and the Sudanese nationals and the few Ugandans who I met.  While doing the construction we worked with five Sudanese…These folks touched my heart and will have a place in it for a long time to come.  One of them is a 25 year old guy named James…We hugged one another when it was time for us to depart.  He liked my camera so at that time I took it from my neck and placed it around his neck. 

The work we did went well.  We made trusses for the building expansion and with the help of the translators got them on top of the building and in the right place.  According to Matt, the man in Juba who ran the project we exceeded what he expected to get done. 

...My time on this computer is about up.  Assante to everyone who prayed for me and donated money for the trip.  Assante is a Swahilli word for thank you.
