The world came to me this weekend

My Ugandan nephew Moses came to visit for Thanksgiving weekend and met many of those in Colorado who sent him books for the African Christian Children's Library. He's interning at Urban Promise in New Jersey for 10 more months. God is opening doors for his mission to grow!
We had a fabulous Thanksgiving with Chris, Andrea and Emma.
spent a day at Rocky Mountain National Park

showed him the Loveland Library children's section and observed storytime.

met the Berthoud girl scouts who are making hundreds of dresses for Dress A Girl Around the World.
They talked about how DAG has impacted them and a desire to visit Africa some day.

Email me at carolyngriebe@yahoo.com to find out how you can provide books for the library in Uganda.
