I have been back in the states since late Monday night. It was not my plan to come back, but there was some issues with immigration so I had to come home for now. I am here until the issues get worked out. I know that I'm going back to Uganda, but for now I'm working in Walla Walla and waiting for God's timing to go back.
Thank you so much to all of you for your prayers for me while I was in Uganda. Please continue to pray for me as the adjustment to the states is very difficult. Dad asked me to stop at the store yesterday to buy some taco shells for dinner and I had a really difficult time being in the store with so much food.
I am amazed at all the little things that I experience here. I was sitting in the Seattle airport on Monday on my computer and the battery got over. I was then thinking that I hoped that the electricity was on at home to recharge my computer. Also having running hot and cold water. Not having to boil my water before I drink it. Having so many options for food and having it in the house anytime I want it. I was continue to notice things and try to adjust back to life in America, but it will be hard as my heart is still in Uganda.
Thanks again to everyone for your prayers and support of the school. Please pray for the Senior 4 class as they begin their exams in only a couple of weeks.

Oh, Michelle, Welcome home. I welcome you to the home that stretches from the US to Uganda and back.
We all stand together. All of my pictures are on my computer. Each time I turn on my computer I travel across that short distance and greet the Ugandan family. I will confess I am so glad you are here. I am aware of the sadness, though, of course, not all of it that you carry. Perhaps in the days and weeks ahead you can share with us and we can grow with you. Patty and I hope to come in late October to visit with you, unless you come here before that. Anyway, you can trust we hold you in prayer each day that the joy of the Lord will fill you up in the midst of the losses.
Love, Elsa Jane
