Gloria!

The highlight of today is that at around 9.45am Confidence Banya delivered a baby girl assisted by Dr Helen Smith and Hanna.  Mother and baby doing well - praise God.  Francis is of course absolutely over the moon.

Alan Smith and Ian had a valuable meeting with Moses Mugume, Hospital Administrator, discussing various plans and liaison matters.

Alan and Helen, together with ourselves, are due to meet the new Bishop in Rukungiri on Wednesday morning at 9am so we look forward to that time.  We had met him [Bishop Patrick] right back in 1988 early in our time here when he was Diocesan Secretary.

Ian attended a "Knowledge Centre" meeting organised by one of the Staff.  This is effectively a forum for discussion on a range of issues.  There were about 40 people there to discuss the topic "dealing with corruption - from grass roots up" and after a slow start it warmed up well.

Thanks to those of you who have sent us email feedback from this blog and for all the prayers and messages of support we are receiving.

Ian and Hanna
