Hello Friends,

I hope everyone is having a great week so far! Granted it's not the most beautiful 4th day of March on record, but hopefully it still provides alittle encouragement...spring will come...

Anyway, as I was sitting around at my stressful job...kidding...my mind began to wander to the New Hope theme verse:

5 "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. 6 God sets the lonely in families, he leads forth the prisoners with singing; but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land." Psalm 68:5-6

...after finding the full verse and letting it sink in I gained even more appreciation for their mission. I can't begin to imagine what my life would be like without my father here on earth and my eternal Father, to think many of these children have no concept of either! God has given us an amazing opportunity to help give the children of Uganda something I personally couldn't live without. My hope is that you would all maybe take alittle time to think about what a Father is and what an impact that has had on who you are and will be. That is what I hope I can give the children we will be interacting with, a Father who will never fail them.

Once again I hope you're all having an amazing day and week! And thank you Hannah for setting up this sweet blog!

God Bless,

Andrew
