Dichotomy

By Mike Heaton

Uganda is a living dichotomy.  It is filled with pure joy and humbling shame;  immense love and horrific violence.  Uganda is filled with lies and deceit.  Yet it holds precious truth as well.  It truly pulls back the curtain that I, as a middle class American, have worked hard to keep hanging over the past 35 years of my life.

I want to extend a personal invitation to you to come experience this as well.  The experience changes you.  It betters your faith, enhances your wisdom and unlocks part of your heart that can often be restrained in our own culture in the U.S.  But more importantly, you are needed here. Yes, you.   We need you to share your privilege with the children and staff in our program.   You do have the needed skills, experience and resources to make a difference in the lives of our communities and we need you.
