Urgent PRAYER Request
We have an urgent prayer request for our team that went to Uganda. The situation in Iran is impacting our travel home. Ron, Margaret and Lauren Kong are currently in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates where all incoming and outgoing flights have been halted. Will Nicklas and Joe & Barbara Jackson are scheduled to leave Monday connecting through Dubai. Thankfully Brian Kong is safely on his way back to New York. Please pray that those of us who are still overseas are able to return safely as expeditiously as possible.

Celebrating in Uganda
Ron, Margaret, Lauren, Brian, Will, Joe and Barbara have had an AMAZING time in Uganda! We spent Tuesday visiting the Donela Primary School in Kakooge, as well as meeting families in the community. Wednesday we were in Bombo where we connected with staff and children at the Donela Primary School, the Life Home Village and in the community. Thursday was our BIG day in Wobulenzi. We visited the Donela Primary School in the morning and in the afternoon we celebrated the opening of the recently completed Donela High School.
