To all,
Soon school here in America will be out for the summer! For most of our kids in Uganda they will continue as some of them just returned to school. Some may get only a 2-week break and then start right back. As I mentioned last month, most of our sponsored children are back in school. Our sponsored children are actually very excited to be back at school.
We realize that most of you who read our newsletter already sponsor children. For that we are very grateful!! We have about 130 children now being helped by you through Two Roads in Kabale, Uganda. But right now, we have 11 children on our website (only2roads.org) who really need a sponsor. I was wondering if you would be willing to mention this to a friend or family member who might be willing to sponsor? Please don’t think someone else will ask someone – take the lead and share the passion you have to help the children of Kabale! These aren’t nameless faces; these are real children that we know and love who just happened to be born into poverty instead of wealth like so many of us. Here are the ones who need a sponsor right now:
Please ask a friend to help sponsor one of these!
Upcoming Mission:
We have a team of 11 who will be heading to Uganda on June 16. Please pray for this mission (see the prayer list at the bottom of this newsletter.) We are excited to be able to return! We are working with our Ugandan staff to make plans which will further the work that they are doing each and every day. We will be doing some sports camp, football (soccer) camps, sewing instruction, small group discipleship, singing (& dancing!), staff training and fellowship, and lots more!
April PARENTS MEETING
Here is information from concerning parent’s meetings being held at the Junction…
Amos:
Having had consistent engagements with the kids, we believe that some progress has been made. But these kids go back to their families which are sometimes not functional due to neglect from some parents. After making this observation, we realized the need to come along side these parents as well. Some of these parents became fathers and mothers at a very tender age with no proper up bringing either! It has become a circle that has crippled the growth of this community. It is against this background that we have agreed to hold these meetings twice a month so that some parenting knowledge could be passed unto them. We even hope to host parenting counselors to share with them so that they can truly realize the true essence of parenting. This very idea constituted our meeting.
Thank you for your continued Support and prayers.
YOURS IN CHRIST JESUS,
Amos.
Two Roads Foundation changing lives in Kabale Uganda through the transforming work of Jesus Christ – one child at a time.
Thank you for your support,
