I've been back in the US for almost three months now, but there are still a few things I want to share with you from the past year. I could rarely upload videos in Uganda, but I still want you to see some of them. I've compiled a few of my favorite clips. This is the real Africa - not the movie kind. Enjoy! :)
Welcome! This blog chronicles the work of Emily in rural African communities, mainly in Uganda and Lesotho. From October 2009-August 2010 I worked with ACTS (Africa Community Technical Service) in southwestern Uganda. Since then, the journey continues in Lesotho as I gain training and experience for empowering subsistence farmers to come out from under the yoke of poverty.

Nibuholho: (nee-boo-HOE-loe). A Lhukonzo greeting, meaning everything is peaceful and good - health, spirit, body, mind, land, family, etc. The same as the concept of biblical Shalom: a total prospering and wholeness in every aspect of life.
