Home Away from Home!

 So I believe I’ve mentioned this before but I am living at a Hotel in Tororo and it is called ‘The Crystal Hotel’. Our room reminds us of my college dorm and so its cozy but a lot more western than I had expected. The staff here love us and treat us like family. They greet us everyday and chat with us while we eat etc. Martha, Fred, Robena, George, Mildred, and Mustafa are the main workers we see and I’m thankful for them.
We eat the majority of our meals at the Crystal and that consists mostly of toast, eggs, hot water (tea/coffee), sausages, rice, and beans.
I took a photo of the back courtyard area because I wanted to show you all their security system. All along the top of the wall there is broken class sticking up so that if someone tries to jump/climb over the wall they will definitely get hurt by the glass. Ouch, that would hurt! There is also a guard that is by the gate at night.
Other than the loud African bar music (on the nights there is power) the Crystal is a pretty quaint place. Its nice to have a steady place to live and people you see regularly. We are definitely making relationships with the workers here and have been able to share with them and connect with them. So its our ministry outside of our ministry! Praise God!
