In the last 5 years we have been
blessed by the people of Uganda.
They are a people who value relationships,
loyal to family, have a great work ethic, and
express uninhibited joy.
We "Go" and we "Do" out of obedience
to the high call of Christ.
But being "Missional" both home and abroad
is a reward in itself. In serving we are served...
In being a blessing we are blessed...
In sharing our grief & our laughter -
- the tears are a shared sorrow...
- and the laughter is multiplied...
Each Reunion with old friends - reminds us the
People God has called to himself.
It has been our privilege to watch these people
mature as a people, as a tribe, as followers of Christ.
Pius @UgandaParkSafaris
He and His family hosted us in their home,
attended their boy's Birthday Party,
and he took us on a spectacular Game Drive
[Murchison Park]
Purity ~ one of our favorite interpreters from
our very first trip years ago met up with us for lunch...
we were able to UpCycle as a gift, Tori's old phone for Purity
She is a real treasure, excited for what she is doing for Jesus.
Richard ~ the itinerant minister.
He has finished his seminary,
He is speaking at Youth Conferences All over Uganda...
and He is getting MARRIED.
[We hooked him up with some new shoes]
Wishing we would have timed our arrival for the Wedding :(
Jayne ~ SOHI Country Director
Excited to see the continued direction of SOHI
with Jayne's Lead. I learned so much, watching her
manage people, Her methods are unmatched,
and she has a heart for Jesus that translates to her people.
