Friday we went to school for church. Rebecca, Michael and the head teacher take turns preaching and it was Rebecca’s turn. Her topic was “With God all Things Are Possible.” She had one of the older girls from the home, who is definitely a leader in the school, share her testimony. She wants to be a doctor. Her parents both died and she wants to go into medicine so she can help people so less kid’s parents will die. It was very moving. She thanked Michael and Rebecca for taking care of her and giving her the opportunity to have an education.
After church we ate at school and then took a teacher and student with us to go to Kabalagala to pick up Phiona. The student from Royal Hope got sick during the school break and they did not know what was wrong with her but it appeared that she was possessed by demons. She hadn’t been eating, she had random convulsions, and her eyes were just staring into space. She was not herself at all.
Rebecca, Michael and I met all the kids at Rays of Hope school when we picked up Phiona. Phiona was very timid about going with us. I couldn’t tell if she was just sad or if she was scared but she was very timid.
The doctor we went to was a British doctor. I’m sure the cases we brought to her were a bit unusual for her. Unfortunately the results for Phiona were not what we wanted to hear but I think there is still hope for her. I want to talk to some doctors when I return home.
