Uganda is beautifully created with green lush hills covered in banana trees and colorful rooftops. As I look out over our porch into Rukungiri, I am amazed by this place that God created. Uganda feels like home to me. Our ministry in Rukungiri, Uganda has been so amazing. We have been serviing at the near by clinic where we pray over malaria patients and new born infants. I can feel the Lord working through our team as the days go on and those patients are healed and discharged. The team has also been helping at The Little Angels Primary School where I have been able to teach the Primary...

I impatiently begged God everyday to show me just exactly why he had sent me here to Africa, but being who he is, he didn't just blatantly say to me what he had in store for me. Instead he did me one better. He blessed me through someone or something everyday of this past month, and patiently he waited for me to realize that every moment I have been here has brought growth. He brought me to a land I never thought I 'd see. He ttok me way past my idea of comfort. he took me deeper than I thought I would ever go. Then he stripped me pf all the expectations I had, and rid me of fear of...

So far we have loved our time in Uganda, we are in the tropical-mountainous region and so far God has allowed us to be apart of some really cool ministries.  Everyday looks different for us but it usually starts at 6 am and we are on the road by 6:45 to walk to the boys secondary boarding school to do morning devotions and songs.  From there we head to the primary school and part ways with half of the team, half stay and help teach the different grades and subjects and the other half of the team heads to the medical clinic. We alternate days so that we go to both.  The kids...

I have been wondering lately if Mary will ever truly understand how much of an impact she has had on my life.. On our first day of ministry at our very first village- our team approached a group of believers with the purpose of giving encouragement through bible verses and prayer.  As we walked up my eyes met with a beautiful young girl who I later learned was named Mary.  She was eagerly asking for us to pray for her- she showed usher ankle which she said had been hurt from a nail.  I don’t think I have ever seen something so disturbing.  20 flies swarmed her open...

God's Power First I want to talk about God's power in our ministry. In the past two weeks we have shared the gospel with many people in Musul. Around nine people accepted Christ , mesesi Jesu (praise Jesus in Maasai). Last Monday we  went to a house where we prayed for a girl with an open wound on her ankle, and a small girl who was sick. We returned there this week to see how they were doing and to encourage them. When we got there we were told that the next day both of the girls had been healed. The doubting Thomas in me has now been silenced. A tree can be judged by its...

It's morning. Early morning.  The compound is brisk and the bleating of sheep and goats fill my ears along with the occasional rooster.  Yeyu (mother) Jane comes and helps make a fire.  No matter how early I rise, it seems her morning is always well underway by the time I'm awake.  She's already done several chores as I stumble out of my tent. I cherish this time.  Even if I can't wake up earlier than my hosts I can still beat the sun up.  And it's beyond worth it.  Pieces of light break through the clouds and appear across the...
