In just a few short days will be on our way to Uganda. The excitement is almost uncontrollable. God has poured out his blessings on this trip in ways we never thought imaginable. We are priviledged to be apart of two vision celebrations and a womens conference amidst all the wonderful opportunities to work with the children at smile africa ministries. Each day, each moment will be fill with unmatched experiences that will allow us to minister to the children, men and women in Uganda.
I am forever grateful to everyone that has been a part of making all this happen. The sacrificial giving that has been shown to see that each child has gotten their vision screened, the lenses that have been graciously donated, and the time involved in reading or nuetralizing each pair has been a vision in itself of the love of Gods people.
In the photos below you will see Grace and her children. She is Pastor Ruths daughter and will be with us during our trip. Pray for her and the children. The thatch roof on their home collapsed and she is needing a new home. The sides of her home have been built but she has no roof, no door, no windows. She lives in the home with all of these children. I pray that God would bless her with a new roof so she may return home.
If I'm able I plan to keep a journal through this blog of the events of each day. This will depend on if there is an available internet connection, so please click the "follow" this blog and you'll receive automatic updates when new information arrives.
God is Good~

Update on the medical condition of Difasi

Doctors have seen the baby and have now identified the gender as a male. Pastor Ruth was able to take him to Mbale to be seen by Dr. Kirya, a urologist. He was diagnosed as having an open bladder, a condition from birth. He has been referred to a doctor in Kampala at Euro Care. The condition is treatable through surgery. The surgery will require three steps. Funding for the surgery is still needed. Any amount is appreciated. For information on how to help go to http://uganda.heartofgodinternational.com.
