UPDATE ON UGANGA, AFRICA MISSION TRIP

We continue to plan and prepare for our mission journey to be in and participate in the Uganda, Africa COGOP National Convention.*  Karen is also continuing to bake items for sale to help with our trip and for an offering for the ministry in Uganda.  She is also making crochet scarfs to keep warm for $10-12 each.  Now is a good time to order scarfs for the cold days ahead.  You can order other baked items as well (send FB message).  We have now received $1622.00 (part given for Karen and I and part given for Sarah) in donations and have raised about $465.00 in profits from bake and craft sales.  We are thankful for any donations and are keeping a close record.  The first $1000.00 is ready to be given as an offering to the ministry of the Church of God of Prophecy in Uganda.  

The date for departure is planned for January 18th.  The National Convention is scheduled for January 22-26.  We will be in flight 2.3 days total for the round trip.  We will arrive late night January 19th.  Overseer, Ntezimana James has advised that we arrive a day or two early to rest before the convention and to rest a day or two after the convention before we board on January 28th to return on January 29th. 

We are continuing to get the needed items together for the flight and stay in Uganda.  Here is a brief list of items we have completed or need to complete for the journey to Uganda....

Most of all, your prayer support and covering is needed above all else.
