we're going to uganda!

I am very excited about our summer plans!

In June we are going to Uganda with Parental Care Ministries.
I get to love on some African kids. Is there anything better????

PCM obviously does more than just love on kids, but that is a big part of their ministry. They work with some schools and pastors to help with schools and education to grow new crops. There will probably be a lot a manual labor involved while we're there. (maybe more for Chris!)

Chris has been overseas many times for missions and I've been to Kenya for the summer, but this is the first time we will get to serve together. I am so looking forward to going along side him and seeing the Lord work.

As exciting as all of this is, the only way we'll get there is if we raise a bunch of money! We are trusting the Lord to provide. We have to raise $7500 for both of us to go.
We would love for you to get involved! But the most important thing we would love from you are your prayers. IF you feel led to give, shoot me an email at leishashepperd@gmail.com and I can give you more info about that.



I am also excited because we get to meet Abia, a girl that we sponsor!!
Isn't she beautiful?!
She wants to be a nurse when she grows up. :)
You can sponsor a child too. Check out PCM's website. There are lots of children waiting to be sponsored.

Hi, Leisha! I'm so excited about what God is going to do on this trip, and I'm looking forward to meeting both you and Chris in person. I'm praying that God will meet every single need for us all as we prepare and raise funds!
