We are excited for the teams who will be launching on the 19th and on the field for over four months!  There are five trips launching out on three continents. And we are excited for you to be able to be a partner in the development of these young adults. They will need all the encouragement and support they can receive, because there is difficulty in the process of initiation through the situations and circumstances that arise. We would like to ask that if you support a participant, whether family, friend, or supporter, that you would continue to pray for...

In this video we were on our way to Adwari, to visit one of the Victory Outreach Ministries churches (the church we were working with in Lira.) We were warned on the way that a truck was stuck (which you can see on the right) and that we probably wouldn’t be able to get through. However, Alex is one of the most ballinest drivers I’ve ever seen, and Fontaine (the bus) was a warrior.. Enjoy the video.

Don’t think for a split second that ya’ll are discounted in anyway, cuz its nice sometimes for yall to be able get into our heads, see through our eyes, feel, what we feel. We are able to explain our experiences that much easier. I beg ya’ll to keep reading on, but this for mainly for the 25...

Sometimes things happen that we just don’t understand. Actually, a lot of times things happen that we will never understand. I will never understand why we spent 11 hours addressing and stuffing 3500 envelopes. I will never understand why people know that Jesus died for them and that He is the only way to heaven but say they are not “ready” to confess that with their mouths and become “born again”.
