 Good Morning,  

We may get to reopen the churches if we can meet the requirements.  Everyone must wear a mask, service can only be 2 hours or less, chairs must be 2 meters apart, Worship leaders have to be 4 meters apart, but Speaker and translator have to be 10 meters apart (?!).  We also have to keep a record of everyone attending and their temperature upon entering the church.  Chairs and microphones have to be cleaned and sanitized after every use; they would like us to assign seats so that the person uses the same chair every time he/she comes.  Children under 12 are not allowed.  We haven't decided what we are going to do yet. They had a Pastor's meeting from churches in the area and they are going to make a counter proposal.  Under these rulings we can't open; for one thing, as small as our church is the speaker and the translator would have to be in 2 different rooms.  God is in control and we will see how things work out and keep you posted and please keep us in pray. We are praying for you.

 We have come along way from the way from a bushy  empty lot, to a kitchen and the new Nursery rooms.  We hope to have this finished by the end of the year.  Then we will start on the old Primary rooms and make them permanent in brick and mortar. This is part of out 5 year plan,  We will make our plans but God will direct our paths.  This will be done as the Lord wills.  We feel a little frustrated as building supplies keep increasing in price, but we know that God is able and all things are done in His time and in His way. We will praise Him for all that is done. Our second term will begin May 9th.  Pray that we have teachers and students and the Lord is glorified in all that is done.  We are praying for 200+ students.

Greetings from Uganda! Everyone is safe and almost well.  We have had a few cases of malaria and the flu but that is common here so although I hate to see anyone sick, they are being taken care of and they are healing.  Kevin, our head teacher and her baby have been sick, but I have not been able to see them for she has been in Adjumani with here family.  Jesca's mom is also in Adjumani and has been very sick but she is getting better although she is very weak. Common things we deal with here in Africa. We are still unable to travel and although we are in what they call lock down, we have the freedom to walk anywhere.  The children play outside and I go to town and get what I want.  Most businesses are open in Lugazi although we still have a 7pm curfew.  Everything looks normal except there is no transportation.  The buses and the taxis aren't running and I am able to get across the highway without having to dodge taxis and lorrys.  Pastor Tiondi had to travel to
