Happy Thanksgiving!!
Anthony praising as we enter the church
There were little booths being built all over the place!!!! Everyone wanted to take part!!!
Great friends in David family walk to the church area together
The Baby House booth highlighted their thanks by showing pictures of the babies for which they care. On the right Jay, Vicki and Julia Dangers.
Mercy, one of our children in the baby house, was so pleased to show everyone who stopped by ALL the babies in the house. She pointed to the pictures and told the names of each child. SO CUTE!!!!
This is a primary 4 student who was happy to tell us how she has been blessed.
Richard, one of our dear sons and a carpentry student sits proudly in the vocational school booth which displayed the marketable items made by the institute students. The students themselves made a beautiful booth which will become a permanent fixture for shade in our compound!!
Visitors to the David Family booth.
We are very grateful for the peace we've experienced as a country and to show it we placed the Ugandan flag on our booth and put a sign saying PEACE on the flag.
The crowd gathering into the church structure after marching around together.
Marching and praising!!!
I love this photo. It is the father of one of our special needs children who is seen here praising the Lord!!!
The DAvid family moves together with our sign
These next photos are from when we were preparing to march in praise together. They were taken in the David FAmily compound before we moved to the church compound.
Geoff moved around a lot on Saturday getting things ready for the celebration. Everyone was happy to join in . . . especially if it meant a motorbike ride. Five crammed on a small motorbike, woohoo!
Geoff and Kakande took off on the motorbike on Sunday morning to make a final check before the procession started.
Reviewing the events for the day and making sure everyone knows what is to happen.
Our family group poses for a pic just before we begin to march.
One of our dear David FAmily associates, Jessica and two of her relatives that joined us for the day.
Uncles Okoth and Eric ready to march!
Toby and Kevin worked on their own booth on Saturday and I loved seeing them enjoying the process and each other!
