Greetings!
|
Our trip to Uganda in January was very productive, spiritually, physically and emotionally. As you can see from the photo above, we were able to bring Bibles to the children and I had the joy of leading a Bible study with them. The Thursday Night Men's Bible Study group at Cornerstone Church generously donated the funds to purchase one Bible for each child. Something they will treasure forever!
The children's physical needs were addressed as we were able to provide medications to treat many of the common diseases identified during our previous visit last August (see story below). The children have many emotional needs which were discussed in individual and group sessions. The older children struggle with issues related to entering the work force and fear of leaving the relatively secure environment provided by Ugandan Lambs. The younger children have issues related to finding their identity in the "new normal" situation they have been forced to accept. Please pray that God will give us wisdom as we strive to meet these needs. This month, we're happy to present a short story about 4 year-old Emmanuel Nsuguga, UL 64. At this point, he is not sponsored, so if you're interested in sponsoring Emmanuel or any other children, you can click on the link below to sponsor a child. Just let us know in the payment comments which child you would like to sponsor by ID # and child name. If you would just like to help our general fund, let us know that as well. Some sponsors have been creative and co-sponsored a child together. Any amount of participation, we're truly grateful for. We would like committed prayer partners since we hold strong to our belief in God's providence.
Serving the Lord Joyfully In His Service,
Ruth and Sam Sebabi Original Founders and Directors

THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROUS MEDICAL DONATIONS!
|

Each child received a general health evaluation and medication for common disorders such as intestinal worms, fungal skin infections, allergic conjunctivitis, ear wax removal, and vitamins. Medications were generously donated by Cornerstone Church, Dr Sharam S. Yashar, Truth of God Missionary Baptist Church, and Kush Pharmaceuticals (an Australian pharmaceutical company).

Above photo shows the children enthusiastically painting the sign at the Kayunga house. It was a great project that got many of the children involved in beautifying their environment. We are seeking funds to allow the children to participate in building a secure chicken coop, maintaining fencing around the compound, installing rain gutters, and planting crops.

Emmanuel UL # 064
Emmanuel is only 4 years old. Emmanuel's father died before he was born and his mother died shortly after giving birth to Emmanuel alongside the road while she was on her way to the Kayunga Hospital.
Nothing is known about either parent. He has been cared for since birth by an elderly woman that served on the town council and volunteered to take him in. Emmanuel
likes to play soccer.
Education is is the key to unlocking the door to a successful future and breaking the cycle of poverty!
