About this Fundraiser

Over the past year, our youth group has decided to take on the challenge of dreaming God sized dreams. A dream so big that we could not accomplish it on our own. A dream that required us to have faith that God would show up and bless.  

We felt called to partner with Bob Goff and Love Does to create an elementary school in Gulu, Uganda. And in less than a year, that dream has come true. Our youth, and the church family at Sandy Hook, has raised approximately $200,000.

Now, the school is being constructed, and we get the chance to go to Uganda to be a part of the building process. I will be leading a team of five youth and one other adult from Sandy Hook and the Columbus area on this journey, but we need your help.

First and foremost, I'm asking for your prayer support. Please be in prayer for the our team, the workers building the school, the students in Gulu and their families, the teachers, and our friends at Love Does. None of this work would have been possible had it not been covered in prayer by a dedicated team of prayer partners, and we would like for you to be part of that team.  

Please be in prayer as we prepare for the trip and while we are traveling in Uganda from June 21st - 30th.

Secondly, I would like to ask you to prayerfully consider becoming a trip sponsor. The cost of the trip is $3,750 per person. By donating, you will be helping send me to Uganda to meet the physical, educational, and spiritual needs of the people of Uganda. A portion of your donation will also be going to support Love Does, which will ensure that the school is meeting both the needs of its students for years after we've left.

I look forward to the trip, and can't wait to share the pictures of the school and the stories of all God is doing in Gulu, Uganda with my ministry &  prayer partners.
