Celebrating Wonderful news from Karamoja!!!

Dear TCI friends,

On good Friday we received the following videos and photos from Isaac in Karamoja. When we were there in January one small girl Lomonyang Nachap told us very quietly as she showed us her vegetable garden that she wanted to be a teacher. The photo below shows Lomonyang Nachap clutching her new shoes as she is fitted with her school uniform.

Today she is beginning to realize her dream, along with 16 other children from the five manyattas that we are serving. This is due to our collaboration with Samaritan's Purse. They have given us a grant for children, and we are using a portion of that to educate 3 or 4 Karamojong children from each manyatta. The children were chosen with the help of the leaders of the manyattas.  Not only that but Samaritan's Purse has donated a motorbike to us!

This is one of the transformations that we have been dreaming about for these villages in Karamoja. We are so grateful for everyone involved - to God for his mercy and grace, provision and strength– to each member of our team and supporters in Uganda for using their lives to make this possible and to all those who prayed for us and supported us financially. 

Your funds have kept the people in these villages alive and have given them hope and strength to start making FAITH gardens and now some of them are able to go to school! It has been a very long haul, and yet you have continued to believe that what we are doing is worthwhile. We are overwhelmed with gratitude to our donors and Samaritans Purse for collaborating with us to make this vision a reality.
