Spa Day at Peoria UMC

Spa Day finally arrived, and it was great to see so many people enjoying the services provided.  And the free will offering will continue to support needed items in Uganda.  Thank you Peoria UMC!

Funds for a home are on the way to to Father's Divine Love Ministries

Wow!  Our first project goal was to raise $2,500 to send to Father's Divine Love Ministries for materials for a home for a widowed grandmother taking care of her orphaned grandchildren.  Together, we fulfilled that goal with the wiring of the funds today to FDLM.  God is amazing!  The Peoria United Methodist Church continues fund raising efforts for various needs through FDLM and Nyaka.  Further donations will continue to meet urgent needs, and we will update you on this blog and the Peoria United Methodist Church Facebook page.

“Many small people, in many small places, do many small things, that can alter the face of the world.” (Anonymous)

Today, we achieved our collective goal of supporting three homes for orphaned children - two through Nyaka and one through Father's Divine Love Ministries, both in Uganda.  There are so many more needs that we will continue fund raising with 100% supporting orphaned children in Uganda.  As projects (goats, latrines, kitchens, homes, etc) are identified and funds sent, information will be posted to the blog.

Thank you to the Peoria United Methodist Church, friends, family, and friends of family who made this happen.  Your generosity and unfailing support for those in deep need touches Tara and me, and we are excited to meet people in September whose lives will be impacted.

"Do all the good you can, 
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can."
