We are excited to be able to be used as tools for God to help encourage, equip, train and love the people here. Uganda is such a beautiful country filled with beautiful people. But it is also a country with so many needs. We read a book prior to our coming here entitled, "When Helping Hurts". It is a daily challenge to know the best way to help. The communities here have received foreign aid for so long that many don't know how to survive without it. We really need to lean on the Holy Spirit's guidance in who and how to help.
I have begun to spend time in the "town area" of Soroti, meeting the local shop owners, trying to learn how business currently gets done and what are their main challenges. In the process I have met people like Isaac Joshua, Eric, Pious and many others. My hope is to share their stories with you and shed some light for you to see God's love at work even in a hard place like Soroti. Our family thanks you for your love, support and prayers.
