Uganda Update
I am going to Uganda. We had our 100% deadline last Friday and my team has reached it. Many thanks to our leadership, Matt Vogal and Becca Ham; and of course to all who have supported us both spiritually and financially (that’s you). The preparation for this trip has been such a growing experience so I am anticipating huge things when we get there.
Last Sunday we met with the doctors who we will be helping to administering aid. We took all sorts of supplies from medicine, clothes, to soccer balls and candy, and packed them into duffle bags to take on the airplanes. At that point it became very real to me. We were bringing basic things that I take for granted every day…because they don’t have it. We were going to give clothes to kids who didn’t have any. We would help give medical aid to orphans who only get it when people from other countries fly over and give it to them. For every object we put in a piece of luggage we are going to get give to a kid who may have never received such a gift. We circled around the pile of luggage we made and prayed over it. I didn’t say a thing. I didn’t even close my eyes. I just looked at it, finally realizing what kind of an impact we were going to make over there.
I am honored to be able to this. And I would just like to thank everyone who has sent me money, prayed or given me a word of encouragement. You are a very real participant in the very realrelief we are going to give in Uganda. Thank you.

Hi Jed,
We are exited for you and can't wait to see and hear more. Undoubtedly God will use you to bless many in Uganda just as He does here in the States. Miss singing with you too.... JJK
