Today is the day! I am heading out from PDX at 1:30. My dad was able to coordinate our flights so I get to travel with him for the first leg to Amsterdam, which will be sooooo great! Then I have a two hour lay-over and I get on my next flight to Entebbe, Uganda. I should arrive around 10:30pm (Uganda time). 

My first week (or more) will be in Kampala doing ministry in the slums. I can't wait to see Robert, Sam, Rita, Paul... and all my friends in Sports Outreach! I also just found out that I am supposed to meet Joni Eareckson, and maybe travel to Gulu with her. After I travel to Gulu I will be staying there for the rest of the trip.

I am super excited and nervous at the same time. I really have no idea what to expect besides many sweet familiar faces and wonderful adventures. 

Thanks for your prayers! I will try to get on the internet as much as I can to share my experiences
