Anne and I at Lake Saaka |
This week has been full of celebration as on December 26th
our community drove an hour to Lake Saaka where the Holy Cross novitiate is
located. The place is spacious and very serene as the buildings are on a slight
hill overlooking a pathway that leads down to a lake. All the Holy Cross
priests, brothers, and sisters from the surrounding community attended Saaka
for a prayer service that contained songs in English, Rutooro, and some other
African language- Luganda or Swahili I’m not sure which. After the prayer
service we had a social, a dinner with an abundance of grilled chicken and goat
(I think I have eaten enough chicken for the month!,) and dancing. It was a
nice evening of meeting old and new friends- Americans and Africans alike who
were all connected through Holy Cross.
