Pretty soon we will be here.........
 Loving on these sweet babies
 Visiting with our lady beaders buying jewelry and giving gifts.
 Enjoying common scenes such as this..........
 Taking this sweet boy swimming for the first time.
 This is all pretty cool too, but not as much as this.....
 The people are the true pearl of Uganda
 We will get to go to Tigers home and bring him a bed and mattress.
And be able to buy many beads from these wonderful ladies to help support them.

We invite you to follow our journey.  Drop us a note, Send us a line.  This great adventure is awaiting all of us and we are ready to go!

Board Member Shawn Gillies Leaves for Ugandan Trip

Shawn Gillies will be headed to Northern Uganda tomorrow for a 2 week trip.  He will update the blog so we can see his progress.  He will be staying at St. Jude's Orphanage in Gulu.  While there he will be doing APF work as well as purchasing more beads and styles of jewelry. We had wonderful donations given for the trip.  Several women sewed dresses for Shawn to share.  One of the women who made the dresses is 89 years old and made 22 dresses!  We are also grateful to the Glacier Park LDS church for donating 100 humanitarian kits!  Shawn will update the blog throughout his trip.  Stay tuned!
