About Us

My photo
We make intentional lifestyle choices to use the abundance God has given us here in the U.S., so that we can give to those less fortunate than us in 3rd world countries. We want others to see the difference as Jesus, not us. We are all sinners in need of a savior. We are NOTHING without Jesus! Everything we have comes from Him and it is such a blessing to share it!

Pacific Family

New Hope Uganda is comprised of 7 family groups with approximately 15 children each. Since NHU's mission is to bring the fatherhood of Christ to the fatherless, there is a "father" who oversees each family group. Since our sponsored son, Isa, is in the Pacific Family, we spent our evenings with them for devotions & games.

Life of a family group....
Cleaning cassava for dinner (a root vegetable) that they just dug up that morning.
All the kids help with the chores to sustain the family. Each family group has a garden to grow their own food. They have to "dig" everyday (weeding with hoes).
It was Isa's turn to cook the porridge. All the kids have a rotating schedule for cooking.
