Well, we have been wanting to meeting Richard's "significant other" every since we arrived in Uganda and last night was the night. Her name is Lydia and they have been dating for several years. She demonstrated her commitment by sticking by him during the two and a half years he was in the States getting his Masters Degree. Lydia is the administrator for a company that does contract cleaning and maintenance and, as you can see, she is beautiful.
When we invited them to dinner and asked what he would like to eat, he responded, "American food." Then, he said he would like for Kathy to give Lydia lessons in how to cook American food. Apparently, he got a little attached to American food while he was living there. Well, since he is in charge of Chicken City, Kathy thought southern fried chicken would be appropriate. She added fried okra and potatoes and, for dessert, banana pudding. The cooking lesson went very well. The meal was delicious. The fellowship was warm. It was an awesome evening.
We are so grateful to our Lord for the opportunity to work with a man (and we will have spent a lot of time together by the time we finish the curriculum) who is so dedicated to Him and who is so easy to get along with. And, from our experience last night, Lydia fits right in.
Thanks for keep us in your prayers,
Edd
