An Update from Lui
Hey guys, here's a message from Cliff:
I am here in Lui, Sudan and I made it alright. Things are definitely different here than in Nairobi. It's a lot hotter and I am working on some churches here along with Matt. There are some VIP's coming into Lui on Monday to see the hospital here and one of our churches in a village called Lozo. The roads are bad so you bounce around a lot and it takes about an hour and fifteen minutes to go the 10 or 15 miles there. I've driven the landcruiser a bit now, and I think I'm getting used to it. Yesterday was the first time that I've got to meet with the village leaders in Lozo, and it was a good experience. I believe Matt and I will leave for Yei in about a week. I'll be there for about a month or two and then after my R&R, I will be by myself running the operations for a group of churches in one of towns. Probably either Yei, Tonj, Lui, Maridi, or one like that. We need more staff than we already have, so I know I will be by myself at some point. Please pray that God will continue to be with me and strengthen me. It's hard adapting but I am getting better. I have a bunch of other interesting stories, (like having to help some people move a dead man back to his village in our truck just two days ago. The guy was 18 I think) Yesterday, Matt and I also stopped by some SPLA soldiers at their camp on the way to Lozo to see if the group coming in next week can video their tanks (old Russian T-55's). They said yes eventually, but we'll see how that goes on Tuesday. Well, I've got to go because I have to get my work clothes on and head out to the village. I will write again, soon.
