A late surge in donations means more can be done
We’ve experienced a bit of a surge in donations as we close in on our departure date. It’s gratifying and very much appreciated, as we’re able to make some last minute purchases of items we thought we’d have to delay until we were able to save up.
We’re limited to two 50-pound bags each, that we’ll be able to check through to Entebbe, and those bags will be stuffed to the maximum by the time we fly out of DFW.
For this trip, there are also a number of items we’ll buy in Uganda; blankets, printer paper and ink, more clothes and shoes and, we’re sure, items that come up that we had no idea were needed.
When, as anticipated, we return “for good” in February, there will be a lot more we’ll be able to do, as far as developing self-sufficiency; feeding, clothing and educating orphans and other needy children; helping cultivate clean water sources; helping build and open health clinics and schools; and, hopefully, involving Mary’s Meals in their goal of providing a daily meal to every child at their place of education.
The journey continues. God Bless you and thank you all, again, for your prayers and assistance.
Which Way? Our Way!
