GSF UGANDA
The Journey Begins....
Team Members: Dianne Gibson, Sherman, Rhonda and Morgan Thurmond, Bethany Rouse, Jennifer and Ed Craver
God is at work...
...at a place called Good Shepherd’s Fold. Westover Church has been asked to join alongside the missionaries at GSF and I have been selected as a member of the team. GSF’s mission is to provide a Christian home to the orphans and destitute children of Uganda. They seek to meet their physical, spiritual, social, emotional, and educational needs so that as they mature they may be fully equipped to impact Ugandan culture for Christ.
PURPOSE OF THE TRIP
The purpose of this trip is to join with the missionaries showing the love of Jesus in a tangible way to the children. We will join with them in caring for the children at the orphanage, assisting in the school
and on the farm. We are honored that they have asked us to join them in their life work.
“Good Shepherd's Fold
was established in 1994
with the purpose and
primary vision of
evangelizing the orphan
and destitute children of
Uganda with the good
news of Jesus Christ,
while also providing for
their physical, spiritual,
educational and medical needs.”
GOERS AND SENDERS
Every team is made up of the Goers (the people who physically travel) and the Senders
(the people whose prayer and financial support make it possible). We would be blessed if
you would partner with us especially in prayer. We believe the success of this trip will
only be as great as the prayer that goes before it. The needs are many so we seek your
prayers that we may be a blessing to those in need and to the workers and missionaries
at GSF. Also please pray for our preparation, team unity, travel mercies, safety, health
and for our families we leave behind. Please pray especially that we may bring glory
and honor to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
