- Larry and I love our church family at Lake Union. Everyone is working hard for our Siloam friends in Uganda...and having fun at the same time! We played kickball on Sunday, sold some stuff (raising funds), and secured some gifts for the youth of Siloam. Yup...Larry and I kicked the ball and ran bases. We didn't do too bad (okay; for our age)!
- Lake Union Church hit the 50% fundraising mark this week (okay; $15 short of that)! We are fully invested toward this new building for Siloam Junior Academy. Step by step...Pastor Peter secures materials and labor as money is wired to him (as funds are given). The footings were poured and completed this week and the brick walls are going up! Pretty cool. We have faith that the funds will continue to come and we pray for hearts to be open to helping.
- Larry and I bought our travel insurance and submitted our visa applications. We leave in 5 weeks! We can't wait to see Pastor Peter, his family and attend the Siloam church and meet our church family in Uganda!
- Pastor Peter tells us that the families are asking if we can support them financially by buying arts and crafts that they have made. Larry and I will bring back as many as we can and sell them when we return (100% of the funds will go to the family). If you are interested, let me know and we will add you to the email list for more info.
I update the church web page, "Project Scope, Giving and Project Updates," (this is a link) regularly so you can find more detailed information there.
