Friends and Family,
I am
thankful and excited to share with you how I will be spending the rest of 2013!
For the past few years, I have been privileged to go on Christian mission trips
to Nicaragua and Guatemala. Because of my experiences there, I have been
looking into and praying about working with overseas missions.
Recently,
God opened doors for me to work with a Christian organization in Uganda called
Know.Think.Act. This organization connects the world to the needs of local
non-governmental organizations (NGOs) around the world that seek to end the
cycle of poverty in their communities. I have been offered and accepted a
seven-month position as the Know.Think.Act. Program Coordinator in Kaihura,Uganda.
From
June 2013 to January 2014, I will be working in western Uganda with
Know.Think.Act. and its local affiliate organization, Bringing Hope to the
Family. While there, I will coordinate international volunteer service teams
and keep the social media updated about Bringing Hope to the Family.
While
in Uganda, I'll be keeping everyone updated on my life via my personal blog,
(katieaukerman.blogspot.com). You can also check out Know.Think.Act. at knowthinkact.com. To read more about Bringing Hope to
the Family, visit bringinghope.org.
What
can you do to help? Most importantly, pray. Please pray for me, for the ministries I work
with, and for the people I meet.
