Care Package

Mail is not delivered to your home in Fort Portal. Having a post office box for most people is a luxury.
For our family the PO box is a link to our friends and family. To check our mail, we have first make sure that we have our key with us then we drive down to the post office.
It sometimes takes a little magic trick to get the old skeleton key to turn. It is a thrill for the family when they see a package slip.
We take the slip inside the post office and get in line. When we reach the front we give them the package slip and have to sign that we have received the package in good order before they will go get it for us.
The person helping us then goes into a dark room in the back for the next several minutes, sometimes even longer.
Then they come out with the treasure.
The other day the post mistress (I'm sure there are jokes there.)
said, "those people in America sure do love you. You are our best customer! You get more mail then the rest of the town!
It is so good that they remeber you when you are so far away."
Glenwood just sent us several boxes of goodies. I can't tell you how encouraging the packages are! They are so much fun.

Thanks, Glenwood, for loving on our family so much! We really do appreciate everyone who lifts this family in prayer and supports them with emails, calls & the occasional Honeynut Cheerios.
