Leaps and Bounds for HIV Prevention in Uganda

What wonderful news! Uganda is going to host a major HIV Clinic. There are hopes for a new vaccination to come out, which is exciting. Of course, my main wish for HIV is education of abstinence before marriage and generally safe and healthy choices, but for some, these preventative measures are not enough. There are abstinent wives who are affected by their husbands. There are innocent children who are infected as a result of being born to an HIV positive mother. A vaccination would sure help, and I am happy to know that measures are being taken to find such vaccinations and get them to the people of Uganda.

Oh baby!

I found this article today, and thought it was… interesting. In Uganda, high schoolers just took their exit exams. Last Monday, a girl went into labor during exams. She birthed the baby, then returned to finish her exam. Talk about dedication, and I don’t quite know if that is a good example or a bad one… Then, Tuesday, it happened again at a different school during exams. Don’t you kind of wonder if the stress from the exams induced labor?? How strange!

Just thought you might find this interesting.

Thousands of Jobs Created in Uganda

The UIA (Uganda Investment Authority) is starting a project in Uganda that will create over 12,000 jobs. This is great news. More exchange of money the better for Uganda’s economy. Click here to read more: http://allafrica.com/stories/200910191358.html

I think this article is exciting. We always hope for Uganda’s economy to improve considering it is into this economy that our children will embark when they are older. We are creating job creators more than job seekers, and any improvement of the economy makes this even more possible! Please pray that we see an upward trend in the economy.

Have a safe and happy weekend!
