Uganda offers places of great beauty, but, unfortunately, it’s also been marred by human evil.
I’m pleased at the increasingly worldwide outreach of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as illustrated in this story (with a video):

Moreover, as I learned over dinner on Thursday evening, Elder Larry Lawrence and his wife were in Jordan a couple of weeks ago with Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the Quorum of the Twelve, where, among other things, they visited a refugee camp full of people displaced by the Syrian civil war.
And I can’t help but mention that Sister Sharon Eubank, the director of LDS Charities, who visited Uganda with Sister Bingham, contributed an article to Interpreter: A Journal of Mormon Scripture last December.
