I will, now, up date you on everything (regarding my move to Uganda) thus far...
The Plan:
I am about to move to Uganda, Africa. I will be flying out on January 14th (about noon, Guatemalan time) and will be arriving 25 short hours later (on the 15th, shortly before midnight, Ugandan time). I will be living with a missionary family in Jinja, Uganda. I will be staying with them, rent free for about 5 months and will be home schooling a few of their kids. Past that, things are very uncertain, I might be staying there for a little longer or I might head home (that will be determined when the time gets a little closer). While I am there, I will be learning culture, some of the language, and will be looking into things for the future. If you would like to get e-mail updates just send me a quick e-mail at carissa@hopeforhome.org and I will add you to my mailing list.
Long term goals:
Eventually I plan on living in Uganda and helping special needs children. I feel called to educate families who have children with special needs, so they will be able to stay with the family, but get the care needed. I also hope to (one day) open a home to take in some of the girls that are unable to stay with their families.
Prayer requests:
1. Tickets to Uganda are very expensive and I still need most of the money. I am trusting that God will provide, but please join with us in prayer. If you would like to help me out in this area, please send donations to...

2. Please pray for peace of mind through this move. It is going to be a challenging time, not only moving away from home but half way around the world.
