    As of this post, we have had 14 chickens, but recently we realized this was not going to further us in raising chickens to help support 150 children. We are selling two hens to buy a rooster. (Yes, male chickens cost more than females here in Uganda.) This will allow us to do not only…

    These are our 2nd year students. They currently are waiting sponsorship to either finish secondary school or go into trade school. Finances here simply have not allowed us to do either though we have tried as we try to get caught up just with food alone. We are praying we become self-sufficient soon as we…

    As of February, we had another baby goat birthed here at the orphanage. It’s a baby boy! This brings our herd up to 9 goats. 7 females and now 2 males. Only four are mature, however, we will be selling a goat to pay for seed for our 1 acre of farm land. A goat…

We still provide shelter, food and education for the orphanged children of Magale which includes many tribal children whose families have been killed by the landslides around Mt. Elgon.

    Magale Orphanage Center was started because of tragedy. Mt. Elgon is notorious for landslides that can wipe out villages in seconds especially during our rainy seasons. This can leave not only people homeless and hurt but it leaves behind many orphans who will struggle to survive unless someone steps in. These children are not scooped…

    The children came to me the other day and asked about if this year they will get a Christmas. They pointed out it’s been 2 years since they have gotten things like new clothes or shoes. My only response to them is that they need to pray and have faith. I don’t know what this…

    The money we have been trying to raise to buy one acre of land for crops has come in. It really was a struggle, but God has proven Himself faithful. The seeds of various vegetables were planted and so now we are just waiting for our harvest. Please be praying for an abundant harvest in…

    Another landslide took out 3 villages and killed men, women, and children. We are in mourning. Some of these men, women, and children are from other local churches and the mourning is great not only for families but for the church families here. II was one of the first ones on the scene and dealt…

    Remember the story of how God provided a ram in the thicket when Abraham was told to sacrifice his son, Isaac? Some of you might remember how we had been seeking to add another goat to our one lonely goat that we had here as well as to provide more income to our orphanage. Well,…

    August the winds and rains came and our church was damaged but it doesn’t stop us from worshipping our God or proclaiming His goodness or faithfulness to us. You see, bad things and hard things will happen but if they didn’t happen we would not learn how much we can trust Him. It’s easy when…
