Today all the Seasiders and 3 more from the main team made the trek to Mumutumba. We visited with Pastor Jessca and some of the women. They were most welcoming, with lots of hugs and rejoicing. We were given a tour of the projects and the womens sewing ministry and an update on some of the problems they have been having . Uganda has suffered a major drought recently so some of the fruit trees have died. 18 Mango trees, 4 Papaya a few orange trees and lemon trees are still alive and growing well. They are still growing corn, groundnuts, (peanut like) jack fruit, banana, and some other fruit tree. Flowers are planted on the drive into the church grounds and on the perimeter of the crops. Some played with the children with bubbles, soccer picture taking, frisbee and just hanging out. A great day and enjoyed by all.
