I've been invited to join LOVE DOES in Uganda this summer! It's hard to believe it's been 6 years since I was in Africa. It's time to go back.
LOVE DOES has been fighting for human rights and providing education to children in conflict zones for over 15 years. I'm joining them on a 10-day service trip to their projects in Uganda this July and I'd love to invite you to help support LOVE DOES and the work they are doing in Uganda. You can read all about it here! http://lovedoes.org/uganda
I will personally be covering the cost of my flight and personal expenses for this trip, but I'd love to ask my friends and family - that's YOU - to help raise some extra funds for the LOVE DOES projects: providing safe houses, sending kids to school or university, even training witch doctors looking to transition out of their field. You guys! For only $800 we can send a student to University!

Here is the best part: I'd love to send any one of you who donates $100 or more one of Bob Goff's books, Love Does or Everybody Always. Bob is the founder of the organization and regardless of your religious affiliation, personal background or beliefs, I promise you'll love his books. Love is love. And the concept is simple: "Only Action Becomes Love."
The whole purpose for my trip is to serve others, be present and to give of myself in the moment, however I can. To just love on people who need to feel love in a real and tangible way.
I've made some changes in my personal life recently and I am so grateful to God for opening this new door for me, reminding me who He is and that He is always faithful to fulfill the desires He created us with. I still have unfulfilled desires and quiet longings in my heart, but I know He knows and He is faithful.
Several months ago, my pastor, Steven Furtick, reminded us: "Your confirmation awaits your obedience. It's a decision that leads to destiny." https://youtu.be/kKKPryXCasc I took a step and made the decision to come back to Charlotte and I am certain that this invitation to join LOVE DOES was God's confirmation to me after my obedience to Him. As Pastor Steven said, "When you're walking with God, you don't have to fast 21 days to figure out what He wants you to do. You'll know. You'll know."
For any of you who are waiting for a sign from God, I'd encourage you to remember, often God is waiting for you to take a step and then He'll send the sign!
Maybe you can't hop on a plane to Uganda...but you CAN change a life there. I hope you'll consider donating. (By the way, 100% of every dollar you give will go directly to fund the LOVE DOES international programs.)
I'm also asking you to join me in prayer. I am believing with faith that God orchestrated this opportunity and has something He wants to reveal to me while in Uganda. Please pray with me that I hear His voice and direction clearly.
However you are willing, thank you for joining me on this part of my journey!
With love,
Rebekah
