Visiting Viviane in Uganda.


After church services, we visited with many of the members to introduce Carmen and for me to get caught up with dear friends.  We went to Viviane’s home for lunch, a local Ugandan meal.  She had prepared stewed beef, fresh peas, greens, Matoke (steamed plantains), rice, Sweet potatoes, Irish Potatoes and Coke!  After lunch we looked at her photo album and learned more about her escape from Rwandan threats after the genocide.  She had survived the torture through the genocide but was pushed out of the country due to remaining tension between the tribes.
