Uganda Compassion Trip, 1 Month in Counting!!!

We had an amazing overnight retreat with our Uganda Compassion Team, preparing our hearts minds and materials for what we will do in Uganda. We are getting very excited! We will be leaving home on February 20th (the day after Carrie's Birthday) We probably won't have time to celebrate Carrie's Birthday until we get on the plane because there is a lot to get done over the next 4 weeks. But we've already started having our fun as you can see in our team building exercises.


We have a lot of great opportunities ahead of us so far;
Through our Partners at Hesed Ministries, we have confirmed that we will be teaching 30+ Ugandan Church Leaders and at least 10 of their wives, Each of our team members are preparing to teach between 2-4 topics during our 4 day Pastors training conference where we will teach on topics ranging from Biblical foundations (God, Bible, jesus, salvation, the church ect..) to a complete Marriage Study as well as Health and Hygiene.
In partnership with Sixty Feet, we are also confirmed to go back and visit the Children's Prison "M1" where we visited last time. We look forward to humbly serving these children with compassion, worship and whatever else God equips us with..


We are hopeful in our plans to build on our partnership with Serving His Children.. We are planning to spend sometime serving the children and care takers and may also have the opportunity to go and teach in the village about Nourishment and Nutrition of children..




God has blessed our team with overwhelming unity, passion and vision. Everyone has approached this trip with reverence, obedience and faith in what God has in store for us.


Please pray for the preparation of teaching materials, our travels, our families and the hearts of those who we will meet and serve. We are expecting huge things and know that it could not be possible without God's provision and the blessings and support of His Church, our family, All of you!
