My Favorite Non-Profits

So through the years, I've come across some of my favorite non-profits. I am very cautious about who I speak out for because unfortunately not everyone is honest.  But here are the ones that I follow besides Refuge:

This is my friends Vicki and Klint's ministry that they are currently living out in Jinja, Uganda. Their mission is to teach and empower the people of Uganda. Klint teaches Farming God's way to the villagers and ministers to the men of the villages, among other things.  This two little listings include soooo much more than meerly teaching farming and ministering.  Check out their website to see what the principles of farming God's way does for the local community.  Farming by this methods yields a HUGE crop.  Also, when you visit Uganda, you see hundreds if not thousands of men on the streets just hanging out. You also see many ministries for women, but none for men.  Klint wants to change this.  He pours his life into the men of the city and is doing a great job.  
Subscribe to the newsletters and support them. I can tell you I've seen first hand what they are doing and your money WILL go to the right place.



Oh my goodness this place has a special part of my heart.  We visited this ministry in Jan and I 100% back up what they do.  A jigger is a sand flea that reaks havoc on the villages. It stigmatizes people and causes excruciating pain.  This organization provides jigger removal, housing for patients, education, shoes and unconditional love. (Most people with jiggers are considered cursed and shunned by their villages).  They are needing a new outreach house and are in the process of raising funds.  Subscribe to their newsletter and support them!  

Vera and I will be hosting a shoe cutting party very soon!! So start collecting your old blue jeans.








If you are looking for a non-profit to support, please consider Refuge127, SoleHope, or Heart4Uganda.

What are we listening to?

I recently purchased this book called Women of the Word which was recommended to me by a friend.  It's a year long devotional of 52 women in the Bible.  I'm on week one and God is already using it to teach me.  EVE WHAT GOD SAID:  You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die. WHAT EVE TOLD THE ENEMY GOD SAID:  We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, "You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and  you must not touch it,  or you will die." WHAT THE ENEMY TOLD EVE:  You will not certainly die,  for God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil. First -  Eve added to God's word. Second - so did the enemy. Seeing this leads me to ask two questions: 1. How of...

DO NOT LEAVE ME ALONE!!!

Lord, use me.  A prayer I've prayed a million times.  But lately I've been doing some soul searching, or rather God has been telling me about myself. (Don't you love when he does that.)  I've always wanted to be used by God greatly.  I've said that I've surrendered all, sang the song a million times, and just turn around to pick up all the junk I've laid on the alter for the 15th time that month and try to figure out this "surrendered" life I'm supposed to lead.  I've tried to map out how he can use me, where he can use me, and what he will have me doing.  Well let me just tell you folks, my head has been stuck in the sand for many years.  Now don't get me wrong, I've always wanted what God wanted for me and although I've put up a fight for a few things, I usually give in, hang my head like a little girl, and say "You were right all along and I should have listened the first time."  Why do us girls always try to figu...

More than the Hem

"And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,  Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.  And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?  And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.  And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.  And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace." Luke 8:43:48 We hear it preached about her incredible faith and devotion that led her to touch the hem of his robe.  The story of seeking, finding, and being healed....
