Housers 4 Uganda: Settled In
http://housers4uganda.blogspot.com/2012/07/wednesday-july-4-it-was-strange-to.html
Thursday, July 5, 2012. Wednesday, July 4. At around 10, the kids have a break from their lessons. If you remember my little neighbor, Michal, who was afraid of me back in January, I can tell you that she is no longer afraid! In fact, she was the one organizing all the other 3 and 4 year olds to run up to the house and attack us! And attack us they did. They started off with some nice greetings. “Hello. How are you? 8221; I started walking towards the school with about 15 kids attached to my arms. YOU ca...

Housers 4 Uganda: The Parable of Cinderella
http://housers4uganda.blogspot.com/2012/07/cinderella.html
Monday, July 23, 2012. The Parable of Cinderella. Two years ago we met a little girl. She’s friends with the girls I sponsor and she just cracked us up. Her spunky little attitude stood out to us. Her smile was big and her laugh contagious. She was too young at the time to be in the sponsorship program, but we always remembered her. We looked for her last year, but couldn’t find her. 8221; They knew right away who I was talking about. So what happened next? She danced with my dad. He saw us in our filth,...

Housers 4 Uganda: November 2011
http://housers4uganda.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 28, 2011. Voice of the Voiceless. As I wrote on Saturday, I have been beginning to really look into what God's word says about poverty. Today I read a passage from Deuteronomy. But God calls us to take a stand, to care for those who some consider sitting ducks. God is commanding. Notice I'm not talking about wants. I'm saying do we make more money than we need to cover our basic needs? We may not have olive trees, but do we something else to share, some talent or time to care for others?

Housers 4 Uganda: January 2012
http://housers4uganda.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 24, 2012. I'm Back to the States. I'm back to the States, and it's just a little weird. It's weird to be so cold, and it's weird to just walk over and flip on a light switch. It's weird to pull food out of my refridgerator or load my dishwasher. It's weird how fast my clothes are clean. And because life here went on without me it's even weird to be with my family. It's weird to watch tv and not have to walk up a hill to get internet. I'm back to the States, and it's just a little weird.

http://housers4uganda.blogspot.com/2012/07/our-vd.html
Wednesday, July 11, 2012. Upendo has a mixture of kids who come to school just for the day and kids who stay in the boarding section and are there 24/7. Last year, the boarding section was only for kids who were part of the orphanage, but not it’s been opened to the public so that the school can make money to keep it running. She can study hard and there’s always food. My throat caught on that last one. If you’re not familiar with Ameri’s story, a few years ago we found her living alone w...Dean is a ret...
