New Friends (Ocean Conley)

Posted by Keith Duff on

My favorite part of being in Uganda has been playing with the children. I have made several new friends. I became very good friends with Promise. She is 12 years old and is sponsored by my friends the Neiters.

It has been fun playing with them, where ever I go they would all follow me. The kids really liked my bouncy ball that I brought. I would through it down the hill and they would try to catch it as it bounced everywhere. I helped hand out toothbrushes and toothpaste in the classrooms and this kids were very happy to get them.

At one of the High Schools the boys let me play football (soccer) with them. Their ball was made out of bags and string. It was a good ball. The kids always wanted me to eat with them, they have rice and beans for every meal. I am enjoying my time in Uganda.
