Africa

To my dearly devoted blog readers,   Congratulations!  You have made it to the end of my Uganda journey.  This is my last blog while in Uganda (I think), and I will soon be home in the States.  Even as I’m sitting here writing the blog, I don’t know what I’m going to say.  I want to tell you what Africa is like, but there is no combination of words man can compose to express Africa’s true nature.  I want to tell you how much I love it here, but there is no amount of time large enough for me to pour out my heart fully for you.  But...

Bye Bye Bye

Goodbye Uganda with your beautiful eyes Oh how the time really flies Your eyes showed me the despair, hurt, and your pain But look a little closer and you'll see you have much to gain Stop giving up on yourself; you have far to go People are raising up and helping you grow Your eyes showed me not only your pain, but also mine Opened up my own eyes and showed me I wasn't fine I needed a lot of work, to let Jesus reign I let Him rule and had so much to gain Goodbye Uganda eith your beautiful smile There's a lot to celebrate and the celebration will last a while You are set free,...

A Retirement for Waldo

So, here is an update on our attempt to help Waldo, the Apha Hotel ministry van, almost $2,000 has been raised! Yay! First thank you for helping us raise this much. But to buy a new van we need $10,000, so we still need around $8,000 more. We are asking you again, will you please help us raise the remaining money to buy Alpha Hotel a new ministry van?

Pretty pretty please

We still need your help raising money for "Waldo", a new van for Alpha. We have 4 more days to go and we need a good bit still. Please consider helping in any way. I can't think of any other people who deserve this new van. When i say the old one is falling apart, I mean literally. Any amount helps us out big time. If the 8 of us had the money, we would give it to them, but we don't, so we need help. The Deadline is December 8th. Thanks so much. If you've already contributed…thanks also You can give online this way: Go to Uganda Ministry Project...

Van UPDATE!!!!!

Hey everyone! So about a week or two ago, I posted a blog called The VAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!! asking for donations towards a new van for the wonderful Alpha Resort Hotel staff. It turns out that they need it more now than ever. Just last night, the current van got stuck in a mud pit and is messed up for good. The engine flooded with water and the van is still stuck in the pit. Thank so much for those of you who donated! We are so thankful for the money that has already come in. BUT, we still need more. The deadline is this thursday and we are still short a few thousand dollars. So look...
