The road to Uganda

So, I think I mentioned in a post before, Travis and I will be traveling to Uganda next March. We have begun really preparing for our trip. We are so excited and looking forward to meeting and loving on the sweet children in the orphanages we are visiting.  We know that we have been called to bring hope to a lost world and to share Christ with these incredible kids.

We are also requesting support. If you are interested in supporting our trip financially, there are several ways you can help us. Here are three ways you can help:

1. visit www.groundtocupcoffee.com and buy some coffee. This coffee is AWESOME! It is freshly roasted, fair trade, and organic. You can click on the partner page and find Uganda, March 2012 and 40% of the profit of the sale will go towards our team's trip.

2. Support us via mailing a check. This is the most direct way to help our trip. Inbox us to find out more about this option. All donations are tax deductible.

3. Go to www.visitingorphans.org  and purchase some of their merchandise (T-shirts, necklaces, etc.). Part of the proceeds will go towards our trip if you designate it to Uganda, March 2012.

We will be doing so many things during our time in Africa. I know the Lord is preparing our way and is working in the hearts of the people we will meet. Financial support is important, but we hope more than anything that you will pray for us. Pray for our safety, for the children we will meet, and that the Lord would use us in an incredible way. These children have already changed our lives- we just hope to change theirs.

We are so thrilled to talk about this opportunity- if you see us, ask us about it!

Peace and Love- Kristen
