“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.”
Isaiah 43:2
It’s incredible to look back at where we started and in such a short amount of time be able to see how far we have come. There have been days of struggle where all things have felt at a complete stand still and then there have been days of conquer and hope that have allowed us to extend our dreams beyond what we ever imagined.
Did you know that we have in the works our very own start of a school right here on the far end of our land at HOOL? (thank you Lea for being such a dedicated friend and supporter!!)
In our time doing God’s work we have stumbled upon so many good people who also share our same love and hearts for the children and community in need here. Each and every one of our helpers are as if another set of hands from God are reaching down to put together another piece of our puzzle. It couldn’t be more clear that THIS is what we are meant to be doing, thank you so much for helping us make our dreams become a reality!!
With that being said we want to share with you yet another vision we have set forth to accomplish for the future of HOOL and the people of Luuka. We have recently heard of land available nearby and with your help hope to purchase more land next to the orphanage to make future arrangements to lay down plans for a place of worship. Christians near and far are having to walk miles to find a place to worship on Sundays and it is of great importance to the children at HOOL as well. If you would like to help with this cause or have any questions please reach out to one of our directors.
We have EGGS!! Baby goats AND baby pigs!! We are so thankful that lockdown times have been mostly event free (other than these exciting new additions) for HOOL. Our country has not experienced deaths due to the illness itself and by the grace of God our children have not fallen terribly ill from other ailments during this time. We have also been blessed to take our chicken project that was once just a dream as well and put it to work feeding our children and fellow villagers during this current crisis. With your help we have been able to use your funds for chicken feed thus being able to share the great nourishment of these eggs. Thank you!
We would like to extend another special thank you to Katrina for pioneering the pig project at HOOL. It has taken time, dedication and love and we appreciate it so much!!
Ian and Gift enjoying a good laugh together. These kids are a constant reminder of how important it is to enjoy the little things in life and to always remember to find a reason to be happy!
“God is not waiting for the conditions to be favorable. He’s going to make rivers in the desert. He’s going to bless you out of season. He’s going to rewrite your story.”
“Hope begins with you, and we want to thank each of you for continually being a vessel to light up a candle of hope in the lives of our children.”
Please continue to keep the children of HOOL in your thoughts and hearts. Share their stories with your friends ..your family ..and together we can make a difference in the life of a child and mold their present and their future into that of one with love AND hope!!
