Uganda #7: Help Needed

Hello all,

I write you today feeling a bit helpless and sad, but knowing that ultimately God is in control, which I am infinitely grateful for. I don't feel like being wordy today; just to briefly let you know what is happening and then let you act as you wish to. Fred is taking care of things for me in Tororo while I am gone and I just got an email from him. It said that the kids at the orphanage are completely out of firewood and charcoal (the two things they'd use to cook) and also beans, which is one of their two staple foods.

There is a bit of money I am going to try to send them via Western Union. But I am fervently asking you to consider donating something today. Even if it is $1 or $5, it would really be a help. Would you think and pray about it and decide by the close of this weekend? I would ask you to consider this matter urgent. What if your own son or daughter were going hungry? Would you continue to let them do so? These kids are precious and valuable. Please consider helping them out. Donations, as always, can be made through the PayPal link on the right hand side of my page.

thanks so much and God bless.
