Our Hope & Prayer

This is our calling. Our hope and prayer is that God will use SOZO to leave northern Uganda better than we found it.

The opportunities are greater than our capacity or resources. We take comfort in knowing we can only do what we can do. But if we do nothing, or don’t overcome the challenges that come with the opportunity, then we have no reason to be here.

Of course, there are plenty of excuses we could use. We are in the middle of our medical training. We are simply too busy. We are people in poverty ourselves, and sometimes don’t have enough money to feed ourselves.

But none of those excuses will be sufficient in eternity. We belong to the Lord. This is His work. We must use our weekends and give away what God has given us, trusting Him to provide what we don’t have. What we do have belongs to Him.

SOZO is a crowd-funded ministry working to improve and change lives in Uganda. We depend on the generosity of people like you. Rebecca has been mentoring 30 of her classmates, and they have volunteered to go with her on outreaches to Kiryandongo, Gulu and beyond. Each of them is willing to pay a small fee for their own transport and food, a huge sacrifice on their part.

The team has been offered the main hall of a school in Gulu, a church building in Kiryandongo, and barracks in Karamoja for sleeping quarters.

And there is always the need for medicine. Rebecca has led medical missions before and knows which medicines serve the most patients. Her prayer is that God will provide enough.
