[Uganda] Day 14: YSU EOY Celebrations!

Pancakes were on the menu this morning, yum! We all got into our Sunday best and walked up the road to Abundant Life Church, Wairaka.

We heard a sermon from a guest speaker and although it was at times confusing because of the translation we all thouroughly enjoyed it. We also performed a piece of our own as a a choir. We sang a short rendition of Amazing Grace to the congregation. The service was another lengthy one going for 2.5 hours. After church we stretched our legs and walked back to Suubi House for a nice lunch.

After we were all full we got ready to head over to Youth Support Uganda (YSU) to join in on their end of year celebrations. They performed dances and songs for us and then we performed Amazing Grace again for them.

Josh shared a quick devotion about the fruit of the vine and we all thouroughly enjoyed it. We had a friendly netball game after the devo, where the girls at YSU had a big comeback after halftime, when yours truly went off . The lovely people at YSU had organised a giant roast pig and other side dishes that all of us enjoyed; I think it was about three meals in one.

After this we quickly taught some of the youth how to kick the footy and with full belly's we started the trek home. It was a tiring but fulfilling day now we are getting ready for our final full day in Uganda.
