Gedeon

Some of you may think that we have only two children; however, six more were added to our "quiver" ten years ago through Compassion International (see Ministry Links). Over the years we have grown to love these children as our own through the exchange of letters, pictures, and prayers. Two years ago while on a mission trip to Honduras, I got to meet our sponsor son Jean Carlos; it was life-changing!!

Now, as we travel to Uganda on a mission we are finalizing plans for Jessica and I to fly into Rwanda for one day and meet our sponsor son Gedeon; we are so excited! He will be17 years old this December. Below is a recent picture alongside our first picture of him. Meeting him face to face will be a dream come true!
