Dear Friends and Family,
I am writing you this letter to inform you that I am going to be traveling to Bukerere, Uganda from April 29th until May 15th 2013. I will be joining a team from Portland as well as others from Klamath Falls and one individual from Hawaii. In all there will be fifteen of us going.
There are many reasons why I have decided to go on this trip. One of which is to serve the children and staff of Agape Children’s Village through various work projects. They have very limited resources there and are in need of so much. Simple things such as clean water tanks, sidewalks to keep them from having to travel from class to class in the dirt and mud, and cubbies and closets to keep their belongings stored off the floor are just a couple of the things we plan on accomplishing while we are there.
Previous work teams have been able to accomplish so much there over the past year. They have poured concrete floors, ran electricity in the houses and built a fence around the perimeter to help protect the village. All of this work has been done through the grace of God and the financial help of men and women with a heart for children… I am hoping for you to partner with me as I travel.
Here is my hope and request. I am trying to help raise nearly ten thousand dollars to help with this project. The more resources we are able to raise the more we are able to accomplish while we are there. At the date of this writing we are up to almost $4000 in donations toward work projects. In addition to the work projects I will have invested nearly $2800 of my own resources to pay for travel and other expenses.
I am asking that you consider helping me by contributing to this much needed work project. A small amount from many can go a long ways in funding a project such as this. Your prayers and financial support is greatly appreciated and needed to accomplish great things for those with so little. In addition to the work project, we will be ministering to the people in various ways such as discipleship, prayer, and teaching.
Please make checks payable to CCSE and in the memo section of the check write UGANDA-CAREY.
We need to have all proceeds for this project to us before April 24th 2013. If you are unable to help please keep us in your prayers as we move forward to Uganda.
You can send them to me at:
CCSE
13520 SE Pheasant Court
Milwaukie, OR 97222
Blessings,
Keith Carey
