Watoto Children

I’ve been trying to write this blog for so long now. Two weekends ago we had the Watoto Children’s Choir at our church. They are SO incredible. If you have a chance to go see them, do it! It will move your heart for Africa and all the need that is so great there. Kampala [...]

India

Greg is in India this week connecting with the missionaries and nationals we will be working with for the upcoming Go Global trip. This is his first trip there and he’s having good time.

Unrest in Kenya

I went to Kenya with them to visit the church and their pastors, Don and Amy Matheny, back in 1998. With the recent unrest in Kenya, we have [...]

Gulu
