Support Uganda Missions!

Hey everyone! We are in full swing raising funds for our return trip to Uganda which is just a short 6 months away. Right now we are buckling down trying to raise the portion of our funds which is the largest and most daunting: the plane tickets. Right now the cheapest we can find are about $1,700 per person. Which means for Jonathan and I a total of $2,400 needs to be raised in just the next few weeks. There is no possible way for us to do this ourselves. But thankfully we serve a God who is greater than that. He works in wonderful ways to provide for us. We do our part by doing as much as we can to raise the funds, which is where things like this blogpost comes in: we need your help too. There is a convenient button on the left side of his page that takes you to a PayPal page where you can enter in the amount of your choosing and help out. 100% of that money goes straight to the trip costs. Other ways you can help out is by buying one of the things we are selling for the trip. My Mom, who is going on the trip, is selling homemade scarves, I'm selling my artwork at Wake Forest Coffee Company, and we are all selling "Pray for Uganda" support bracelets (also at WFCC). Anything you can do will help out tremendously! We all thank you for your continued support!

Support Uganda Mission Trip 2014

 Hello friends and family!
I hope all of your holiday seasons were fantastic and that the start of your new year has begun well. The Stout family has begun the process of raising funding for this summer's mission trip to Uganda. We are returning to the same area we were at last summer to continue the teaching and work that we began. We are excited to be able to have this opportunity and look forward to building the relationships we have with our brothers and sisters in Busia.
This summer our desire is to be able to do three things:
1. Hold a Bible conference to teach the church members and teachers about the person and attributes of God.
2. To continue evangelism within the community and continue the relationships begun there.
3. To assist and fund the continuation of the building of Buteba Baptist Church's building.
Jonathan and I have approximately $4,000 to raise total. We need a good portion of this at the beginning of the process in order to pay for the plane tickets. I have created a Paypal link to donate to the trip to try to make the process easier for our friends and family. You are welcome to enter in whatever amount you desire to donate. Please just click the button at the side of the page and help us out in our ministry.
Thank you all for your continued support in both finances and in prayer.
Much love,
The Stouts
