Tomorrow I'm leaving for Uganda. After spending a day in Philadeplphia to meet with my missions agency once more, I will be in Nairobi on Sunday. I'll spend a week at a retreat in Kinshasa, and then I'll be in Bundibugyo for the long hall.
Things are going to be changing around here. I haven't really blogged well since last summer mainly because I haven't really had much to talk about. I feel like blogging is best served amidst exceptional times. Although being an RA on Catacombs was a great experience, the world I lived in there, while wonderful, was small.
Uganda will be different. I'm fairly confident, that Uganda will be an exceptional experience, in fact, it may be too exceptional, and on these pages, you could see me fall apart. Ultimately, I'm hoping that I can make this next year communicable to people that I won't see, probably won't talk to, and will have little else to communicate with.
I'm going to try to rely on pictures more than words as a means to communicate my experiences. Of course, doing this well will only work if I take decent pictures. So we'll see how that goes.
