Uganda



Our church, and Anne's school has been working hard to build a school in Uganda. It started out as a 'dream' last year and through the children at CCLS, offerings, service projects, the school in Uganda has been built.

For the past week a group of people from church, and the other churches associated with CCLS have gone to check out the new school and watch its dedication.
Weeks prior, the students here collected things to be sent to Uganda. (silly bands, finger nail polish, hygiene supplies, Bibles, money for vaccines etc.) Each week we walked in with our bag full of things to donate. It was amazing the amount that the children collected to be sent to the school.

Adam provided 'uniform' shirts for the students and staff in Uganda and sent other apparel items that weren't needed here. He has been faithfully following the mission team blogs during their journey and has been visibly touched by their work. We have mentioned we wish we were braver/in a different time in our life, to be able to do work like that.



Here are some of the links to the blogs and pictures of the mission team. Feel free to peruse them. It is quite inspirational.
