"Okwagala Kwe" has become the theme of our mission. It means "His Love" in Lugandan. We are going to Uganda to tell as many as we can about His love. We are going to share His love in many ways, even without words. We have embroidered the words Okwagala Kwe on the 300 prayer blankets we are bringing and will explain that the blankets are a gift from Jesus. We pray they will to serve as a reminder of His love whenever the recipient needs comfort. We have memorized the Chris Tomlin song, "Love" over the past few months so we can actually sing it in church and anywhere else we have opportunity! Tonya had the lyrics printed on beautiful Team T shirts she gave us. We will wear these on the flights over to serve as a witness to everyone we meet on the long journey to Uganda.
Click on the YouTube link (on the right sidebar) to the song performed by Chris Tomlin and the Ugandan Children's Choir in Kampala, the capital city of Uganda last year. The quality of the video is amateur but you can still hear the song and imagine us in the place of the performers! Imagine Smith Leggett leading us with his guitar and the rest of our group singing the African lyrics led by Sarah Hurst. They make us sound really good! Maybe after we perform it in church we can upload our version!!
