Storm the Mighty visits Prisca
Photos taken by Nicole Daniels and cross-posted from Storm the Mighty.
Prisca also works at One Mango Tree's
Gulu workshop - in fact, she runs the show. We were able to visit her
home with Jenn and Kaben, an American couple who lives and works at the
One Mango Tree compound in Gulu. I wish I had more photos of Prisca to
share with you but she hid in the kitchen cooking for us the entire
time. We went outside and played with all of the neighborhood kids,
who love to spend time at Prisca and Charles house (especially now that
they have electricity and a TV!).
Prisca was so sweet, it was
about to downpour and she offered to let all five of us stay with her
and her family for the night. Maybe an offer we should’ve taken her up
on. We all drove home in the pouring rain, in the dark, over the
worst potholes on a dirt (mud) road with lightening on motorcycles.
Boda Brad drove both me and my friend Joelle on his bike and Kaben and
Jenn were on another. I was sandwiched between Brad swearing up a
storm and Joelle praying out loud behind me. Definitely one of my most
memorable days in Gulu!
Check out some photos of Prisca and her family, below.
