Africa Adventure

Two weeks. Two countries. Two compounds. Too amazing to describe.

This November I will have the amazing privilege to go on an African Adventure. I will be going to Ethiopia and Uganda with a leader, Laurie Doden, and two other girls, MK friends I’ve had since moving to Slovenia. We’ll visit the compound Project Mercy in Ethiopia and the compound New Hope in Uganda. The compounds consist of orphanages, hospitals, schools for all ages, dairy farms, irrigated farming and a lot more.
While there we will be helping out wherever needed. I am very excited to play with the kids and also see how the people live.

The main goals for this trip are:
1. to learn about God
2. to learn how people live in Ethiopia and Uganda and how the missionaries are helping them
3. to learn about me and what God wants to do in my life

I am also going to be learning and doing a lot before going, like memorizing verses, writing reports on the countries, writing book reports on missionary biographies and (unfortunately everything costs money) earning money.

If you would like to learn more about the places I’m going to, you can look on these websites:
