Working Hard….

These ladies are amazing and have been working hard. They’ve seen more in the last few days then they could have ever imagined. I’m so grateful for each of them. They are prayer warriors and have made such an impact already! We have been blessed. Next GO Team dates will be posted soon on our…

The Load

The picture above is common in Uganda. Large items balanced on skinny bike tires  that were certainly never meant for carrying  such heavy, bulky and gangly loads.  No doubt, the carrier of the goods must work  tediously to balance  with precision the weight of each load. I have marveled for years at the industrious internal…

Many Hands…

Today we headed  to lend a hand with whatever needed to be done… Auntie Emma visits often and they were  thrilled she had arrived! The second they saw our vehicle they were  jumping up and down. Had I known their response, I would have  tried to video them… They are all lovable little treasures. Their…

Their Voice

Feeling Pampered

There’s a wee little miracle-girl laying beside me squealing, giggling, kicking, “talking” and gently rubbing my leg…{and she’s been doing it since somewhere around 1:45 am}.  Jet lag has had me up as well…and so I’ve been awake since 1:15am.   Clearly little Miss Ruby is happy her mommy is home and her mommy is…

One Little Street Boy

I wrote a post about a street boy and posted it to the   International Voice of the Orphan blog, but I would be remiss not to mention it here. The story of one boy, a team of people from different ministries, all working together to minister to one precious little boy. You can find…

The Streets

She said she was ten years old.   With strained difficulty she had tried to get to where we were handing out food. As she struggled to walk,  Emma looked toward the young girl’s foot, no wonder she was hobbling – her foot was completely mangled. In fact it was hard to recognize that it…
