Thoughts on Dominican

Thoughts on Dominican

I returned Saturday evening after eight days in the Dominican Republic working with Servant’s Heart Ministries. I led a team of six others from our church.  It was an amazing week of ministry, of relationship-building, of warmth! (literally since it is snowy here and sunny there).

Hanging with Condemned Men

Hanging with Condemned Men

On the last day I was in Uganda, I spent some time with several men on death row at the Luzira Maximum Security Prison in Kampala, Uganda. The inmates are referred to as “condemned men”.  As we went through all the security points and the long walks through various hallways and doors, we finally arrived to the waiting room outside the … Read entire article »
