It is thought that seeing a rainbow is a sign of a happy ending. This was so very true today as on our way home after two successful distributions, our team saw a big, beautiful rainbow!
It was indeed a happy ending to a very good day. On our first distribution we were greeted by a joyous group of mother’s dancing and singing and beckoning our team to come and join them. It is an overwhelming feeling being greeted with such warmth and appreciation, especially before a bedkit is even distributed.
As the end of our time in Uganda draws near, our team is lingering a little longer before we set up so we can soak in these moments. The distribution went quickly and efficiently and before we knew it, it was time to pack up and head to our next site.
As we arrived at our second distribution, our team was greeted by a group of school girls that were asked by their teacher to dance for us. They were so friendly, and welcoming and enjoyed practicing their English. We thanked them each with a Canadian pin which they all quickly pinned onto their uniforms. It was another great distribution!
We hope the 1100 children who received a bed kit today have a wonderful night’s sleep tonight.
