Hi everyone,
I am writing to let you know what is going on in Uganda.
Isaac has moved the 60 orphans to the dormitory at the new school we rented. They have a lot more room and better access to water and bathrooms.
A principal and eight teachers have been hired, and the school has started. There are our 80 orphans and about 220 local village kids attending, making a total of 300 kids.
At Great Love Junior Academy, we are excited to be teaching Bible classes as well as reading, writing, math, and science.
Isaac said:
“Brother, we have put the spring of water amidst the wilderness… our village/community is seeing the school as the savior, so let’s pray for God’s will, and move on as our budget permits. He will lead us.”
We have hired a local company to develop a website for our nonprofit, He Is Worthy. Here is a link to look at what they are doing. It is very early in the development, but we hope to soon allow you to communicate by email with the child you support.
In January, we started having a monthly birthday celebration for the orphans. We have cake, drinks, and a present of new clothes for the birthday kids. I don’t think these kids have ever had a birthday party.
Also in January, at the birthday celebration, we gave each orphan their own English version.
We were able to witness God move to enable all 350 lepers to get treatment for their leprosy for a full year.
We have only two kids left to be prayed for out of the 100 we started with. Praise God for your willing hearts to make a difference in their lives. They are all smiles, and God is at work moving the hearts of the people around them.
P.S. I still need to know who is praying for Sharon Mendera.
