It is our day of rest after working hard all week. We attended the morning bible study and worship service at the Mityana Baptist Church. It is always inspirational and lively during the 3+ hours we are there. The people are all so warm and welcoming it is a joy to be with them.
We went to lunch after with Wycliffe, Pastor Abdul, John and Hamid. We went to the New Highway Hotel for a change of pace, but the food is similar to our hotel. We had great conversation and really enjoyed our time together. We said good-bye to John as he is leaving for Seminary.
Wycliffe took us to the Ttanda Archeological site, which to say the least was curious. It is basically an historical site where they have found 240 holes in the ground. They appear to be about 3 feet across and some are very deep and interconnect underground. It is not know how or why the holes are there, but there are certain people who believe that it is the location of certain spirits. People come to worship these spirits and to place spears (different types for different reasons) to the spirits. It is really similar to idol worship with food sacrifice. Very odd.
