A YEAR IN REVIEW... & THANK YOU!
It blows my mind what we have accomplished in 14 months. All I can say is...GOD IS GOOD!!! I'd like to share with you all what we, together, have accomplished in a year and thank those who have been part of it. There are lots of details on the photos and thank yous at https://www.facebook.com/ThatTheWORLDWillKnow/?modal=admin_todo_tour, so I hope you'll look through them and see what God has accomplished through the power of one multiplied. The photos correspond to bullet points. The journey begins, June of 2018. -First foot on Kamiigo soil and confirmation from God that this is where I am to serve. -Started feeding program -More children can attend school -Built state of the art pit toilets with future shower potential -Second trip with my son Matthew -So many firsts on the second trip -New dresses for girls sewn and donated by Destination Dresses -two suitcases of donations taken over -Teachers, cooks and pastor begin receiving small salary -Desire of Mama Sarah to learn to sew washable sanitary pads. We partner with Days for Girls to make this a reality and begin sewing. -Purchase vehicle for Pastor Peter and his family -Purchase land to build a multi-purpose building and construction begins -Third trip: Our first team, Karen, Anna and Alyssa (who has special needs) -Distrubute 200 Restoring Dignity kits in five villages -8 suitcases of donations taken over -Begin teaching sewing of the pads -Purchase sewing machine and Mama Sarah begins learning to sew -Young couple accepts the Lord in church after speaking -Building shell complete (except for paint) -Fence installation begins. Wow!!! and those are just some of the highlights. So many changed lives and little things taking place daily. I cannot even name them all. What a joy this journey has been! I cannot wait to see what is next and continue to be a part of it. Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who is on this journey with us, through financial giving, prayer, support and simply reading the posts and encouraging me through comments.

I think that I have already given up on trying to understand the world. I used to think that the world is a much better place, but it is not. I have not been able to live life to its fullest, and by the time I end this comment, I might have hated it anymore. I am not saying that you should feel the same way though. You still have a future, so try to make the most of it.
