It Starts...

Thursday May 2nd-The blogging starts!!!

What: Answering God's call to help children in Africa

When: Leaving June 24th for 3 weeks in Uganda

Why: For years . . . and we are talking 7 plus years, I have had the strongest feeling that I am destined to help children in Africa. Besides that, I love Someone who loves these little ones who have been through so much pain and horror and I know He wants me to love them too . . . not just with words, but action.

With Who: The organisation I am volunteering with is based in Portland OR and it's called Ukids it's website is: http://www.ukids.org/

Status: Flight booked and paid for, 3/4th of support money is in ($380 left to raise)****. Passport valid, vaccines (5-ouch!) obtained, getting to know my team members, shopping for UV protecting clothes (had a bout of skin cancer in the past). Praying for the children I will be serving. Pray with me!

****AS OF TODAY JUNE 11, 2013 This trip is FULLY Funded!!! Praise God!!
