Blessings

Tonight I received news from my roomates in Uganda that my home was burglarized in the middle of the night. While they slept in their rooms, several robbers broke into the house by using a long stick with a wire on it to reach through the window they broke and snag the keys hiding behind the water filter (which they could see apparently). They not only scared my poor roomates half to death but stole several things from my home (which were hard to come by in the first place).
I was blessed to view a magnificent sunset tonight. The colors were incredible. It reminded to not worry about those things you have no control over but to trust Him. I am completely thankful my roomates are safe and unharmed. The damage to my Ugandan home and the loss of my things pails in comparison to what could have happened to them. Praise God for His protection.
My time here stateside is swiftly drawing to a close and I will be traveling back to Uganda soon. I have had such a great time with my family. I am still working on drawing in funds for the next term in Uganda. I am again being asked where to send support funds. There was previously two sending agent churches for sending funds to that were being routed to me. Having both has made it confusing and difficult to track for me with my limited internet and communication abilities. So now to reduce that confusion and make it easier to keep track of, I am using only one source and I virtually just picked one and went with it. If you are desiring blessing Reaching Hands Ministries with a financial gift, please use the following sending agent. They will continue to route the funds to me in Uganda. Bless you all:

Send Checks to: CWWC (or Canyon West Worship Center)
P.O. Box 448
Fruita, Colorado 81521
Please make sure to write on the MEMO line: For Reaching Hands Mission/Siouxanne Mease

Thank you so much

OK. So I randomly found your blog. Sounds like furlough has been eventful. Let me know if you need a place to lay your head upon arrival back in Uganda. I am off to bed, 5 of the 6 kids in bed, and it is just 7pm. A hot bath awaits me :)

Hi Siouxanne, My name is May I'm one of Danyne's Aunt's here in the Houston Area (Corkys' sister). My son Brian and his bride Lindsey are now in Jinja. I have not been there yet but love hearing all the news so will be checking your blog at times. I'm not sure what link I found your blog from. Have a safe trip back.

Hey Girl, My daughter left today for Jinja. I can't wait for you to meet her. (She has a little gift from me to you!) I told Beri to take you out for a pedicure like we did together. My memories are so fond and I am so excited to have my daughter there with you in Jinja!! Love and miss you, Leigh
