We leave for Uganda tonight! (originally published 12/22/06)

And we're off! We leave tonight to go to Uganda for six months!!! I'm a little freaked out but overall super excited to get there and get to work! We are going to be working for two months in Kampala with Pastor Martin Ssempa. I pulled this information off of www.purposedriven.com: "Martin and Tracey Ssempa are the pioneers of Makerere Community Church, a faith-based organization specifically working in AIDS prevention with university students. Since 1988, the Ssempa's have effectively used community drama, school rallies, radio, and television as means of communicating behavioral change to youth in Uganda. They run a youth drop-in center called 'The White House' and a weekly campus rally – 'PrimeTime @ the Pool' – serving more than 4,000 college students every week." Martin will also be taking us into hospitals as well as rural villages to minister to orphans and others suffering from HIV/AIDS. Please keep our team in your prayers that God would direct our every step and that He would use us mightily to build His kingdom!
