The New Year and World Gospel Mission Retreat

December 31st we enjoyed a camp fire with our neighbors and friends, the Asikis!  It was a fun evening of games and sharing stories. Our bonfire dinner was also our anniversary meal! We praise Jesus for ten years as husband and wife and an incredible continued love adventure with HIM and each other!!!

 Elsie Jayne and Lucy Mae LOVE the Asiki girls! Here they enjoy a late night moment with Hannah!

We began the new year bright and early with an all day drive from Arua to Jinja, Uganda...where World Gospel Mission Uganda had their staff retreat.

 We had an exciting journey taking our Sudanese boys back to school in Kampala and Entebbe and our family to Jinja...it was a full car, but a fun day too!

The girls with Mama Karen Duncan who was celebrating her birthday while we were together in Jinja!
WE LOVE YOU Mama Karen!!!
So thankful for twin mama's who have gone before, even on the mission field!

Gatherings

A group of men Billy meets with for Bible study each week gathered at the year end for a celebration!
Just this past week, three of these men prayed to trust Jesus with ALL of their hearts!

There were multiple Jesus birthday parties near the end of December...a couple of them included some dramas of the Christmas story!
