Going to Uganda!

We are excited to share that our family is planning a trip to Uganda with our friends at Lahash International in December of this year!  Lahash partners with grassroots organizations in East Africa to care and advocate for vulnerable children.

SEBUR

Six years ago we met Sebur Emmanuel through Lahash sponsorship.  Sebur is our 12-year old friend who fled from his homeland Sudan during his country's horrific civil war.  He joins 29 other orphans cared for by compassionate, godly men and women at Amazing Grace Children's Home in Adjumani, Uganda.

TRAVEL
This winter we plan to send three Mains to live life with our friends in East Africa for a couple of weeks.  It will cost about $3,200 per person and we have saved enough to send one.

HOUSING
We are also eager to help our friends build new housing on land of their own. We are helping to raise $4,000 toward these buildings. The Main kids have been putting their abilities to work and hope to share some of their creative fundraising ideas with you starting in September!  The family has created a picture poetry book, Daniel is training for "Hoops for Homes" and Josiah is brainstorming a Uganda Travel board game. It's gonna be great! 

THANKS!
