Year End Giving


When we first raised our support and came over here last February, we were incredibly blessed by the number of one-time gifts we received.  These gifts were essential in helping us cover all of the costs related to setting up and starting our life and ministry here as well being spread out through the year as monthly support. We could not have done it with out them!

Now, as we look ahead just a bit to beginning our second year, we’re asking if you’d consider a year-end or one time gift again?

We now have a better sense of what life and ministry look like for us here and mostly what it looks like is availability. We are, first and foremost, available. We’re available to help with projects in the village, available to lead youth bible studies, available to help maintain and improve facilities and vehicles. We’re available to help with meds at the monthly clinic or transport people to the hospital in town, or hauling people and supplies for mobile dental clinic or anything else.

Beyond just the work with our own organization, as we get to know more people, we’re having more and more opportunity to serve others in their work as well. I have been blessed to help out friends and work with Amazima Ministrys (https://amazima.org/) with some construction work and have also made connections with Good Shepherds Fold (http://www.gsfuganda.org/) and look forward to helping with maintenance and projects with them in the future.

I say all of this because this work, which I love and feel is where my calling lies, brings up the need for me to increase my tool and equipment supplies. The first, and one of the largest things I need is a welder. We need about  $1800.00 to get this machine and one of the first things that will be done with it is repairing a bunch of toys from the kid’s home that are, literally falling apart.
    



This welder will also be vital for auto repairs, upcoming sustainability projects in Lawmbogo, and fabrication of playground and sports equipment for the youth.

Please pray about this and consider if you could help us help those around us!
