Sponsorship the hope and the future

Kisoboka- It is possible! 
We are changing the lives of children and their families.   358 children  attend the Christian Mission Academy.  There are 28 students attending Senior 1 high school.  We have 5 children in training or starting training.   I round up  the number to ~400 it continuously fluctuates.

We are seeing the children's dreams coming true!!!  2 Candidates for Senor 2!   Not one parent, I've talked with had ever achieved this!  2 young men finishing up Mechanic Training!   They never dreamed they would be worth anything,  they both thought their future was hopeless.  They struggled in school and never felt worthy.  This visit one of them thanked me for believing in him, he is now repairing cars and being paid to do it!


Sponsorship is the primary source of funds that provide for all the children.  The sponsored childs  school fees/training are paid, they and their family all have free health care. More important than the fees and the healthcare children now have the ability to dream and see a bright future.

 The goal to have every child sponsored in NOT unrealistic.  I believe in our collective network there are ~ 200 people, clubs, churches, Bible Studies, Youth groups etc.... that could sponsor a child. Sponsor a child and watch their lives change.  Loving a Village one Child at a time!!!

$25.00 a month is not difficult, $6.00 a week.  Less than a cup of coffee every day, less than a bottle of wine a week, less than going out to a restaurant.   A group of 5 everyone giving $5.00 a month.  KISOBOKA-  It is possible

My 7th visit to Uganda




I have been home a week today.  My visit was as usual very powerful, I’ve spent the week reflecting on it.  The team had traveled for more than 24 hours, God gave us the energy and strength to hit the ground running.
The team of 8 the gifts and talents a perfect blend.
·         Cameron (Cameroon)- had the children singing and dancing where ever he went.  Our team Rock Star
·         Jeff- prayer warrior
·         Gale- prayer warrior and spontaneous speaker
·         Nancy- taught social studies
·         Victoria- Physical therapist and sex education teacher fo both the girls and boys.
·         Pastor Chris – pastor and mentor, sex education teacher for boys.
·         Todd- longtime supporter of many young adults education and small business startups
·         Sandy- mom to the children of Bakka
Day one of our visit we attended a bazaar in Bakka.  We purchased fresh fruits and vegetables we would have during the week,   plantains, bananas, sweet potatoes, Irish (white potatoes) eggplant, cassava, tomatoes, avocados and more.   Crafts handmade mats, baskets and more.  Cameron (Cameroon) started the week teaching the children a song they would continue to learn and sing for us the end of the week.   We danced and sang together it was a day of celebrating.
Day two we attended Jesus Power Church in Makindye.    The worship team rocked!   Break every chain was my favorite.  Pastor Chris gave a powerful message.  It was a wonderful service. 
Sunday evening the sponsored youth had a dinner to recognize Todd for all the blessing he provided to them.  They presented a plan to pay it forward.  It was an amazing evening.
Monday – Thursday we were with children in several schools and orphanages.  Schools and homes for the children HIV positive that were throw away kids.  School for the blind, and schools for the poor.  Every school/home we visited the children were filled with joy and Thanksgiving for what they had for what the future would bring.
 Many of the people’s stories made me sad,  the story that broke my heart, hearing and seeing the child that had been thrown from the back of a boda boda.  She was a baby and left to die, God saved her by sending a family to provide for her.  The family providing for her has very little themselves but share it willingly.  She is now ~ 3 her age. 
The entire team answered where they were called providing Love, support, prayers and promises for a better future.  We never lost our energy, we were filled with the Holy Spirit.
