Call for Support

Trust. For some individuals it might be easy to trust. For some trust is hard, it is something that has never been there. Some people on this earth have broken or used that trust in hurtful ways. I want to share with you someone who you can trust with EVERYTHING. He is loving, caring, a provider, compassionate, giving, healing, a creator, in control and worthy to be praised. He knows everything about us. He LOVES us unconditionally. He is God. 

After listening to a sermon by David Platt this morning I was challenged to write down different attributes of God. I wanted to share some awesome things about our great Lord! 

HE is:
1. God is faithful- Matthew 6:34
2. Jesus is worthy of praise- Matthew 8:1-4
3. Jesus is trustworthy- Matthew 8:23-27 and Genesis 6:9-9:29
4. God is our Father- Matthew 6:9
5. God is our provider- Matthew 6:11 and 32
6. Jesus is a disciple caller- Matthew 4:18
7. God is a creator- Genesis 9:6
8. God loves all nations- Genesis 12:1
9. God is compassionate- Matthew 10:36
10. God is in control- Genesis 11
11. Jesus is a healer- Matthew 9:35

I am writing to you all because I trust that God will provide. That he will provide prayer warriors. That he will provide love. That he will provide guidance. That he will provide.

After being here for four months the Lord has placed certain individuals on my heart. I have so much love for people here and the ways that the Lord is moving in this place. Recently it was brought to my attention that one of my dear friends, Isaac, wanted to go to Senior 5 and Senior 6, and then on to school to be an engineer, but does not have enough money to attended school. Here in Uganda schools are not free like in America and every term the family has to pay school fees. As the child moves up in school the school fees increase and become harder for families to provide. With this being said a lot of students do not finish out High School. I want this to be different for him. He has dreams and aspirations to help others. In my first conversation with him, he told me, "I want to become an engineer and then after I work for a couple of years and get on my feet I want to use the money that I make to help others go to school." Knowing that he has such a loving heart and he wants to help others, makes me want to help him more. He lost his mother years ago and his father has not been seen in years because he could not provide school fees for his three sons. So currently they are staying with his grandmother along with four other children. His grandmother has such a huge heart to help others that even though she struggles to provide for herself and her grandsons she also has taken in other orphans. Hearing their situation, praying and trusting I am wanting to help pay for his school fees. Now I cannot pay this all by myself, but I am trusting and praying that God will provide, because He is loving, caring, a provider, compassionate, giving, healing, a creator, in control and worthy to be praised. Isaac will be attending St. Joseph of Nazareth High School starting March 16th. The first term costs 917,000 Uganda shillings which is equivalent to $367. This is for his tuition fees and for his school uniforms. Every term (there are three terms in a year) after is 700,000 Uganda Shillings, which about $280. Knowing some awesome people in my life his first term and dorm items have been paid for, but as for his second and third term  for this year we still need to raise almost $600.

Please prayerfully consider helping this awesome, God loving man and my dear friend finish out his schooling. Please feel free to contact me with ANY questions.
