Kopango! (that's a greeting in Luo, the language I'm learning of the Ugandan Acholi people)
I just wanted to let you know that on July 6th 2010 I bought my first one-way plane ticket to Uganda, Africa! WOW. God really blessed me because the price of the ticket went DOWN a couple weeks after I was initially going to purchase it. So I only had to pay $960 for it, AND it's Delta all the way (and Delta is my favorite airline to travel with). Praise God:) So you're probably curious as to what date I bought the ticket for... well... I'll be flying out on October 5th and arriving in Entebbe, Uganda the night of October 6th. All in all, it'll be about a 19 hour flight. Talk about leg cramps! lol Anywayz, I decided to push the date back a little bit so my sister could leave her school to see me off. So 3 months and counting... You'll be happy to know that I have approx. $700 in one-time gifts raised and $60 per month so far. Please keep praying that God will lay it on people's hearts to support this work of the kingdom as there is still a chunk of support left to be raised. I am not worried, though because I know God will provide all I need. He equips the called. Hallelujah God Bless you all
Come with me, Naomi Johnson, as the Lord uses us to REACH a broken and needy world with His love. It may be across the ocean, or it may be in our own backyard, but we are called to be Jesus wherever we are. I returned from being a missionary in Uganda in 2012, spent a year in ministry school at the International House of Prayer University, and am now on full-time staff at the House of Prayer Evansville in Indiana, Thanks for reading, praying, and giving... we're partners in the kingdom work!
