Uganda Update: ONE
Hello All:
We are the St. Teresa Mission Group from St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross Parish in Bright, Indiana. In just a few short weeks, we will be traveling to Uganda, Africa. It is in Uganda that we will work with the St. Jerome COVE Alliance school, orhpanage, and clinic in our effort to start what will hopefully be a lasting and beneficial relationship for both our community and our friends' in Uganda.
This group has been hard at work in making this mission possible for well over a year and a half. There have been a number of exciting twists and turns along the way that have led us to where we are now. While many of those events are now simply stories, we hope that you will join us on the actual trip itself by following our documentation in this blog. We hope to update regularly and include video so that you too may experience this life-changing journey as we do.
Every member of the St. Teresa Mission Group is extremely excited and grateful to all of those that helped make this mission possible and have supported us along the way. From each of us; Thank you.
