Work permit progress (?)

Since we want to stay long term we have to get a work permit for Uganda before we are allowed in. We sent the permit applications by courier to Pastor Fred in Uganda and he submitted them about 6 weeks ago. We have just heard from some people in the UK who have had their applications in since Feb (and are still waiting) that the Ugandan immigration office has a big backlog and they know someone who waited for 9 months!! Not overly encouraging but its in God's hands. It will happen in His time.
