During the shut-down our team welcomed the original sponsored children HEED formed to serve to the mission house in the village for a two-week "reunion camp."
Along with so many others, COVID restrictions helped HEED to discover the benefits of video conferencing for virtual meetings and gatherings. Stay tuned for more chances to visit the village virtually!
Many miles apart, but same shared heart for the work God is doing through HEED Uganda.
