After travelling six and a half hours from Montreal, we had a four hour lay-over in Amsterdam before the eight hour flight to Entebbe. Fortunately, we met a gentleman who introduced himself as a Roman Catholic priest. He didn't flinch when I declared myself a Jewish atheist. As we talked, at length, we were again impressed by the integrity of an examined life. Father Santario was returning to Mbare after 2 weeks in the U.S., part of the UN representing Uganda at an HIV AIDS conference. We discussed many issues, listened attentively, and incorporated new facts. Father Santario has been deeply involved in the running of an orphanage, primary school, and vocational training. He said if we ever wanted a second branch of the NLP he might be able to help! It wasn't a promise, but I will "pretend" it was!! His website is www.ugandamartyrsorphansproject.org

I am so glad you arrived safely! The priest you met sounds like a facinating individual. I'll check out his website!
