In June of 2015 I will be going to Jinja, Uganda to teach banjo at a music school! The purpose of this blog is to raise support and to keep everyone updated.

So Close!
We are so close to reaching our goal of $3,000! We just need $264 and we will have the money needed to buy the banjos and cases!
I'm so excited to be done with the fundraising phase of this project. It is definitely my least favorite thing. I HATE asking for money. I hate it... a lot. Even though I'm not asking for money for myself, I feel bad asking for other people's money.
Recently I was talking with someone about this. He said "people want to be generous and we need to give them the opportunity to be generous". I never thought about it that way. Other people want to be a part of something and I'm giving them the chance to do that. They might not be able to go on a mission trip or maybe they don't even want to, but they are able to help make that happen for someone else. Your contributions are impacting the lives of these students in the music school. I can't wait to go and be a part of this ministry next summer! Thank you to all who have supported me financially and through prayer!
As for that other $264 that I hate to ask for... you can go to the paypal button on here or make a donation in the offering at Grace Community! :)
