| Most of the young ladies in this choir are nursing students at St. Kizito Hospital in Matany. |
 |
| The Children's Choir...so cute! |
 |
| Pastor Philip and his wife, Agnes, have 4 children. These twins girls are their youngest. |
Below is a video clip of the Children's Choir...
"The Lord has something to say. Listen. Listen. Pay more attention
for the Lord has something to say"
I'm not sure what the little one says in between the chorus but it's
a sweet song with a good message.
 |
| Dr. Dietrich preaching with Agnes translating for him. |
 |
| First Assembly of God in Panama City donated 16 choir robes to the choir. They were THRILLED!!!!! |
After church we went to another new village to us, Lokarujaka. This is the home village of Pastor Paul who we was translating for Dr. Dietrich. We saw over 120 people this afternoon.
 |
| Lined up waiting to have their vital signs taken. |
 |
| Pastor Paul translating for Dr. Dietrich (this is his home village) |
 |
| This man was cracking us up. He could not get the concept of putting the thermometer under his tongue and closing his mouth around it. There were probably 6 pictures leading up to this one at different stages of the process. |
 |
| Dr. Maceluch with Pastor Simon Peter evaluating a patient. |
 |
| Don with Pastor Elijah evaluating a patient. |
 |
| These 3 black cases held all the medicines, vitamins and supplies to treat the patients. |
 |
| Such a sweet picture! I won't embarrass Joelle by posting the "after" picture but let's just say babies don't wear diapers in Uganda....(it was #1 so it wasn't too bad). But we got a good laugh out of it. |
 |
| Green bags are mosquito nets to protect the families from malaria carrying mosquitoes. |
 |
| This is Ronnie. He is a dear friend of Gabriel's who came to help us as a photographer. He was taking a break from taking all the pictures and videos to test out the mattress that was given to an elderly woman. |
 |
| Flip flops and tire sandals |
 |
| New dress and flip flops |
After the clinic in Lokarujaka we went to visit St. Kizito Hospital in Matany.
It is run by the Catholic Comboni Missionaries.
 |
| Brother Guenther (pointing in the blue shirt) is the hospital administrator. He took us on a tour of the hospital. This room is where the nurses were treating patients intravenously. |
 |
| Kind of disturbing to me that there seems to be more paper in the Deaths box than the others... |
 |
| Children's Ward at the hospital. |
 |
| Birthing room at the hospital. There's 4 tables in there. Evidently there was one lady on the other side of the wall in labor. |
 |
| This woman is the grandmother to the baby in her arms. The mother died either during child birth or soon after. The baby is premature and Brother Guenther said the grandmother will take the child and raise it. |
 |
| Incubators in the Neonatal Unit. |
After the tour of the hospital we went to Pastor Philip's home. These ladies are members of a craft and sewing small group ministry. I believe they have 2 sewing machines that were donated through Mercy Uganda.
 |
| I thought this picture was cute. Clearly this little baby is eating well. |
 |
| Here are Pastors Simon Peter and Elijah presenting the team with our Karamajong names. |
Gabriel gave all of us a Karamajong name. This was a great honor for us.
Dr. Dietrich: Lochap which means the Weeding Season
Don: Lokiru which means the Rainy Season
Dr. Maceluch: Lolem which mean During the Harvest Season
Rebecca: Natee which means Protecting the Garden
Joelle: Nakoru which means Cultivation Period
Brandy: Kuri which means Dove of Noah's Ark that was sent to see if the land had dried up. And she has brought the uniform to the land for God's work/ministry.
Becky: Sagale which was Gabriel's grandmother's name. He gave me that name because she was an important person in their village, she would unite the family and everyone would go to her for advice and guidance.
It was a great way to end the day. We are officially Karamajong! :-)
Blessings,
Sagale
