Africa- I want to be Africa bound

Within the last couple weeks, I found out about an opportunity to go to Uganda Africa to minister to orphans and needy children with Caroline's Promise. (www.carolinespromise4u.org) This is a non-profit started by a friend of mine. I have been on a mission trip through them before. CP board members went on a "vision trip" to Uganda to assess ways that CP could help in the future, as well as minister to children in orphanages. They saw so many children with horrific stories, children who need someone to care. Truly, many of these children are starving- for attention, love, hope and food. Look at these blogs to see why we need to care- these are from people who went on this trip in May.

Another blog that I stumbled on that works towards helping people in Uganda is

Due to the quick nature of the trip--- airline money will be due within days....I sure need God to wow me and my best friend, Kirsten because we both feel like we should be doing it together. I definitely know how much this trip means to her.
