We have recently started teaching the kid’s cultural song and dance at ACV. We have hired a young man who has much experience in this area. It is coming along quite nicely. In preparing for the Christmas Cantata we realized that we were a bit crippled without the local drums. Thanks to a generous donor who gave specifically towards the kids choir and musical instruments, we were able to purchase the full and complete set of local drums.
We (Tom and Sandi) heard from the Lord that we were to go and be apart of the work going on at Agape Children’s Village (ACV). After praying and seeking counsel, the Lord confirmed that we were suppose to go for a few months. So we have arrived today and we are beginning a very interesting journey. We have obeyed the Lord, sold our home, and embraced the call. As we arrive on the ground at ACV, we were received with song and dance, joy, and lots of love. We are so excited to begin living life with the people of Uganda. We want to embrace all that these next few months has for us. We want to learn and grow and be challenged in our walk with the Lord. Please be praying that we will be open-hearted to the people and God’s will in our lives. We have included a few pictures of our leaving as well as our being welcomed by the children. Please watch and enjoy the video of the children dancing – and please forgive the poor dance moves of the muzungu’s,. (white people).
