Making a difference


One of my work colleagues asked me "How can you make a difference in Africa?". There is a story where a boy came across a beach covered in dying starfish. He started to pick them up, throwing them back in the sea. His mother asked "how can you hope to make a difference here". The boy said "well, I made a difference to that one... and that one..."

"...whatever you did for one of the least of these, you did for me" Matt 25:40


If you want to make a difference consider coming to Uganda, the Dominican Republic or Sierra Leone, follow the link to Mission Direct.
