Musana Camps Summary

In spite of the ants, spiders, bats, cold showers, no showers (we had to wait for them to pump water from the creek into the cisterns), the itchy rash that Anissa & Ally got, a few sicknesses & one injury among our team, we had an AMAZING time at Camp. God is definitely in that place! You can feel His presence everywhere! The baptism ceremony was an emotionally powerful experience, as well as outdoor worship with African drums. The children's outreach day was a highlight! our team loves working with kids! It was great to spend time with the Sparks, share meals in their home, pray with them, play with their beautiful children and see a small snapshot of what their life is like (in the 7 dys we were there, they had to make 2 emergency trips into Kampala--one for Eva, one for a staff member who chopped through his finger with a machete! Praise the Lord, the doctor was able to save his finger!) We loved the fellowship with the staff and forming new friendships (we had one particularly fun night around the campfire singing songs, playing games, and laughing our wads off!!)  We had sweet team devotions every morning & evening. Although it is impossible to put into words all the emotions we felt that week, here are a few more descriptions that help capture our time at camp:

Incredible stars, breathtaking views, God's air conditioning (there was a constant cool breeze), an on-going chorus of birds & bugs filling the air, becoming one with nature (sometimes too literally), "Be still and know that I am God", full hearts, awed by God.
