Pure Thankfulness~

As we come to the end of a month of Thanks I want to express a huge THANK YOU to all of our sponsors, old and new. As of this month we have 8 kids sponsored to go to school and one child at Home of Hope with a personal sponsor! God has brought in new sponsors who have a heart for these children and that has been a huge encouragement to Edith and myself. I love getting to send her emails of all the good things happening here, that has to be one of the best parts of running Our Hope!
We are still looking for a sponsor for Edith's son Francis to attend school again in January. If you are interested please email me and I can give you more information on the costs. 
I also want to say thank you to everyone at work who helped donate, pack boxes and write up customs slips so we could get the Christmas boxes shipped!! Needless to say Kayla and I learned a lot about international shipping and how complicated that process can be. Please pray all 12 of the boxes arrive in Uganda and no one decides to help themselves to some toys along the way. In talking to Edith tonight she mentioned she was worried about getting the kids new clothes and I was able to tell her God took care of it, they are on the way! I am ultimately thankful to my gracious heavenly father who meets all our needs as we faithfully follow His lead. Lord give me strength to continue to follow......

This picture includes sweet Francis in the yellow shirt next to Kayla. He is so willing to help with the children at Home of Hope!
