A18 Watoto House Short Film

Ginny and Amy went on a trip with NCC back in '07 to help build a house for 8 children and a mother through Watoto. Love Watoto's mission statement: "Rescue a child. Raise a Leader. Rebuild a nation." Because of war and disease, Uganda is in the midst of raising a fatherless generation. Watoto builds villages that places 8 orphans and a widow into a brand new home. The village contains a school and medical facility as well.

This past August, I led a team back to Uganda to build a classroom in the same village. I had a chance to see firsthand what is taking place. 26 letters in the english alphabet cannot define the perimeters of what was felt.

This is a short video of Ginny and Amy returning to the home they helped build back in '07.

Great quote: "I still don't know the extent of what God is going to do with it. But I got a glimpse. And that glimpse was huge!"
