Rainy And Josh In Uganda

Josh's parents take a yearly winter trip to Uganda to spend time with Josh's brother and wife, Jonathan and Kelly.  They squeeze in a year's worth of holidays and birthday celebrations and jump into normal ministry life with their family.

This year Josh was going to be joining them to do some worship discipleship training for Jonathan and Kelly's worship team as well as some other surrounding worship teams.  So why not ask Rainy to join the fun?!

We needed to update her passport and raise the funds and she did an AMAZING job baking cookies and selling jewelry to get there!

Getting packed and ready was an adventure too.  While Josh and Rainy were trying to make sure their luggage met the weight requirements the other kids started pulling items from all over the house to see what was heavier or lighter, lol.


The trip was very nostalgic for them as they walked the streets we used to walk as a family and visited our old hut we lived in on the Arise Africa compound.  


They even got to go do some ministry out at the babies home where Alethia used to live.  Jonathan and Kelly (and their girls who predominately run it!) try to get out there once a month and do Bible stories, crafts, songs and games with the kids, so Josh and Rainy got to join in on those activities too.


We love Auntie Patricia



Josh had such a refreshing time with the worship teams during the days of training.




On Sunday morning Josh led with the Jinja Town worship team and his dad preached.








One of the nights the church held a worship night with Josh and the Jinja Town Worship team. I think a highlight for Josh was when Rainy got to lead a song WITH him!





Thank you, Kelly, for capturing most of these beautiful shots!
