This morning has been full of excitement! After a whopping 5 days in America I'm off to Africa again today. Uganda this time. I woke up at 3:58am after a solid 3hrs of sleep. I quickly showered and began loading my duffle and rollie bag with supplies. The duffle was full of personal stuff while the roller bag was for computer tech stuff. I finished some last minute windows updates on 2 laptops while franticly making trips to the bathroom scale. My final step was to pack up the desktop computer I brought home last year to fix. This was when panic struck the deepest part of my geek. The motherboard tray was missing!! How? Without that it would be impossible to rebuild the computer in Uganda. Long story short I had to resort to removing the tray from my computer in the parking lot of Calvary Chapel...not fun but I got it done in time. And my wife deserves a gold star for patience and grace! In all this excitement I discovered I had left my tire shoes! Luckily we still had time so we quickly ran back home, droped off what was left of my computer and recovered my treads. God is good. : )
Today is full of new spellings of my name. On a new debit card my first name is spelled w a D... somehow... haha. Within just hours I received a confirmation email for our hotel in London next month. My last name was spelled the british way with an E. So I'm Grand Davies now : ) I guess that's no too bad. Better than Grane Davids right?
Here in Dallas DFW we have a 5hrs layover so I was able to take advantage of the lull and walk out of security to see my sister and brother-in-law. Drew just bought a new motorcycle! awesome. It was good to catch up with them after 6 months!
Please pray that this new team will continue to come together. Having an all male team is already proven entertaining and is new even for me. Trips that you know everyone can sometimes be the most difficult to become truely unified. Please pray Eph 4:14-20 and Col 2:2-3 over us these next 2 weeks. Your prayers were powerful and effective in South Africa and I can already look forward to God's work in Uganda.
Uganda Love It!
