To try and explain what life here in Uganda is like would be totally impossible. In the last week we have………………..

  • Finished the upgrade of the classrooms in Kigazi (fitting bigger, glass windows and laying floors) so that we can teach Primary and Nursery levels in the village from next month – and recruited a new teacher to do so

It is still very hard and we are still living by faith and not by sight. An exciting, encouraging and nerve-wracking place to be. I couldn’t be here if Jesus Christ wasn’t here with me.

Please pray for our orchards, the recovery of our harvests, for us and especially for the 250 children that we provide education for – at the start of this new academic year. Thank you.
