Hi all!

Thank you so much for praying for us as we've looked for a new place to live. The Lord has given us a wonderful opportunity to stay in an apartment on a ministry's campus here in Jinja. The campus has an elementary school, a seminary, and a church - and also houses a few local families who work there - so Burrus and Caroline should have plenty of people around to play with. And it's as safe as we could ask for.

The ministry has been very gracious to let us sign only a 6-month lease, as we'd love to continue looking for a place that's more conducive to serving the people we've been working with, so please continue with us in prayer for that.

We're planning to move-in this coming week!

Also, just a few quick pictures from Christmas at Ekisa!

Strolling to church.

After that, Burrus couldn't stop asking to "stroll, stroll, stroll" some of the children all around Ekisa :)

Caroline's always happy when Aaron holds her.

(His name has been changed for privacy.)

And of course, singing with Santa!

We love you and are so grateful for all of your support this past year. You've been an amazing blessing to us and to the children and families we've met here in Jinja.

Merry Christmas!

"Because of the tender mercy of our God...

the sunrise shall visit us from on high

to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,

to guide our feet into the way of peace."

Luke 1:78-79
