The Wee Hour Call…

I woke in the wee hours this morning to the sound  of my cell ringing beside me.   Caller ID said was Dw’s African number. Attempting to shake my groggy stupor and orient myself, I immediately questioned, “Is everything okay?” It was Dw’s voice that I heard on the other end of the line, “I’m so…

Could This Be The Trip For You?

Dw has been invited to lead another  Legacy Leadership Conference –  this time it in Eastern Uganda.
