Uganda Update

I am amazed at how FAST time is flying by! 

We will actually be boarding a plane for Uganda in 31 days!

Oh my word.... did I actually say 31 days?!?! 

So much to do. 

We are getting SO very excited... and so are our kids!

It is fun to see them share in this experience even though

they will be staying here.

Our prayer is that God does amazing things

in the heart of our kids through this experience.

I am amazed at how God has been working in our lives.

It seems He is teaching us very valuable lessons - DAILY!

"Thankful"...

 is definitely the word that expresses how I am feeling right now.

We are only $1200 away

from reaching our total goal of $6000 for this trip! 

AMAZING!!!

We have truly been AMAZED and HUMBLED as we have TRUSTED Him ...

and watched the funds coming in.

We are also collecting DONATIONS for the different orphanages

and orphan ministries we will be working with.

If you are interested in....

• a mattress for an orphan - $30
• sponsoring an orphan to go to school (fees & materials) - $105 for the year
• donating a laptop - in good working condition for field work for one orphanage 

Please let me know... you can e-mail me:  dianaperkey@gmail.com

I was able to share with all three 6th Grade classes at our school today

about the opportunity they each have to GIVE

some of their clothes to the orphans in Uganda.

They can GIVE out of what they have been so BLESSED with...

not asking their parents for even $1. 

The kids are excited. 

It will be amazing I am sure to watch the donations come in -

their goal is to FILL 3 suitcases with clothes and used sporting equipment!!

I LOVE when KIDS want to GIVE and SERVE. 

That is WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT!!

~We have several PRAYER REQUESTS~

1. Our flight arrangements are still up in the air (no pun intended) right now.  The main airline we were scheduled with has cancelled some of their flights which is effecting our plans.  Please pray that the flight schedules can get straightened out and booked with no additional fees or layovers.

2.  Pray for the remaining funds ($1200) we need to raise by February 25th.

3.  Pray for all the final team preparations before we go.

(learning music, getting lessons and activities ready for hundreds of orphans, collecting donations, etc.)

4.  Pray that God would prepare our hearts for what He has for us to learn in Uganda.  Pray that we will be equipped to be USED by Him for His GLORY! 

Thank YOU for traveling on this journey with us...

we could not do this without the love and support of our family and friends!
