Last Sunday Malcolm was invited, as Guest of Honour, to a
fund raising event at Kiruli church. (The building is incomplete and the next
stage is to raise money for windows). Malcolm was flattered even though he
discovered he was at least 3rd choice behind Rory and Denise
Wilson.
In addition to fund raising there was also:
- - a Baptism service for several children and adults
- - a Harvest
thanksgiving service
-
- and an
auction of harvest produce.
Feeling peckish, Malcolm was invited round to Rory and
Denise’s for a pancake lunch. We are not saying Malcolm liked the food, but he wouldn’t even stop eating to pose for a photo!
Their son, Gideon, is taught at home by Lisa. This week the
theme at school was trains so the decorations included a steam train in the
colours of Gordon, Thomas and Percy.
To learn about light and dark Gideon had a cave built at the
foot of some book shelves.
The work of the hospital continues to develop. The Medical
Records Office has moved and there was an opening ceremony.
Finally there was a visitor to Malcolm’s office.
Unseasonally early, but' tis the time to produce the hospital’s Christmas card.
This year to raise funds to replace our broken auto-clave which sterilises medical
tools.
This week’s African Proverb from
the BBC’s website is from Uganda: “It is better to eat a mushroom in freedom
than to eat meat in slavery”
