So, I am sitting outside my mud hut in Lukodi, Uganda just north of Gulu, Uganda near the border of Sudan. In the fields all around me, mothers we raped, fathers were killed and children were abducted. The children were taken by the LRA, a rebel movement instigated by Joseph Koney, and made to kill according to the LRA’s whims.
The school building in front of me used to be lined with blood and bullet holes, but now it’s filled with the voices of singing mothers and playing children. There has been much healing in Northern Uganda.
The organization I am working with is called Child Voice International. Their mission is to restore the voices of children that have been silenced by war. I could explain all that goes on here, but you should go to www.childvoiceintl.org and see for yourself.
……….
I will be going back to the States if I do not reach my support goal of 11,000 by the 31st of October. Right now I am at 10,498. You guys really have no idea how thankful I am for getting to go on this trip. It has changed my life FOREVER. God’s will is the only thing of worth. Period. Anything outside of it is futile. And, speaking of that, I utterly receive His will, if that means I go home or not.
So, I am asking for 4,000 more so I can finish this mission trip through next May. I would love your help if your heart is pricked to do so.
Thank You.
