The team included a pastor, two teenagers, a stay-at-home mom, and five business men. It was a life-changing experience for them all that they will never forget!<br />

Murchison Falls was a great ending to an amazing two weeks in Uganda. The trip was life-changing, for sure, and traveling to any third-world country makes you realize how blessed and fortunate we are in America. May we use our blessings to honor God and never take them for granted.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008368366927747102.post-59910564024392392172011-07-19T21:28:00.000-05:002011-07-19T21:28:09.473-05:00Day 10Day 10 was spent hanging out with the kids at Calo Me Lare.

The team had such a great time getting to know these AmAzInG kids! It will be so neat to watch them grow and see how God uses their lives. They've been through so much already, He must have great plans for their future. Maybe someday they'll be doctors, teachers, social workers - maybe even a future President of Uganda! The skies the limit!<br />

The government had some of their locally, trained people there to perform AIDS testing on anyone who was interested in it then the DBF Team was there to provide AIDS education and counseling. They were also available for prayer, if requested. Amazingly, about 320 people were tested that day! Sadly, about 20 tested positive, including a nine-year old girl and a pregnant mother. All in all, it was a great event that will hopefully spark positive change in the Lira area.<br />

The team got to worship with the kids at Calo Me Lare, along with about 200 local villagers! They found their way of worshipping to be so authentic, uninhibited, and real - such a deeply spiritual experience...<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">After church, the team ate lunch with the kids at Calo Me Lare. Also joining them were the two administrators and their wives. Tony and Dennis are AMAZING, godly men that have dedicated their lives to helping others. Calo Me Lare would not be the same if it weren't for the time and efforts these two men have put forth into building the orphanage into what it is today. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Later that day, the team paired up in two's and went hut-to-hut with an interpreter telling people about Jesus. Most people say they are Christians in Uganda; however, many still mix in <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes/newsnight/8441813.stm">witch craft</a> and other religions, which naturally dilutes the truth. Everyone was very receptive and welcoming to the team and some people even made decisions to follow Jesus!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
