How can you change the world

What a privilege to work with a great team of people! When we first started talking about this trip, we had no idea who would join in the adventure of coming to Uganda to spread the Lead Like Jesus message.

Rich and Barbara Meiss surfaced as the early team leaders and have done a wonderful job in organization, focus, purpose and spiritual direction.

Tabitha Kyambadde has been the keeper of the dream of Lead Like Jesus in her country - Uganda! Tabitha and her family have gone beyond anything we could have imagined. They have taken care of us in so many ways it's hard to count. They have blessed us immeasurably with the gift of their lives and their commitment to Jesus.

Magala and Musa have served us everyday in transportation needs, advice givers, and great all around "I'll do whatever needs to be done" guys. What a joy to have new brothers in Christ!

Debbie Piper, Fred Waggoner, Erin Menke, Randy Strode, Owen Phelps, Rich Meiss, Mary Tucker joined our happy group as facilitators willing to leave their homes and families, raise their own support, give 2 weeks of their lives and energies to share the Lead Like Jesus message in another land. Each one has contributed significantly to the work and demonstrated the message at all times. It has been a privilege to work alongside them.

Don and Cherry Dewey, Betty Liedtke came along as servant helpers for the cause. Don quickly established himself as the resident videographer and we look forward to seeing the finished product. Cherry and Betty have both served as people ambassadors, loving on and encouraging participants and Cherry had the privilege of helping a young woman come into the family of God.

One of the greatest blessings is to see the the unity that has developed among such a diverse group of people. We have prayed together, cried together, worshiped together and when we leave this place will have forged a bond that time and distance can't alter.
We have made a lifetime of memories in two weeks. We will be forever friends!
