Bowing to the social pressure to send out a Christmas photo of our family, we present the above as evidence that we are still alive and have succumbed to neither malaria nor malnutrition nor the abuse of the equatorial sun. We are fit and healthy and happy to be able to work alongside the ministry of the Gospel in Karamoja. Thank you all for your generous and faithful support. We are striving to be good stewards of it (for example, using our time taking silly pictures).

Best photo I’ve seen of you in years, Christopher. Keep it up!
Thanks for your commitment and generosity to these people that you love! Hope your Messiah party was great.
As you may have heard our Christmas eve was blessed by the birth of Tisha’s baby boy and we all descended upon her for Christmas Day by her request. Christmas blessings to you – aunt Marsha
