In late September and October 2007, 41 members and friends of Northside Community Church flew to Kampala, Uganda from our homes in Sydney, Australia.

Our hosts were the amazing people at Kampala Pentecostal Church, the home of Watoto. We were one of 85 teams expected to visit Watoto this year, but our story was unique.

We’d raised $100,000 as a church to build homes for Uganda’s orphans and widows, an expression of our belief in what I call the social gospel. As it turned out, Watoto was able to use that money to fund a large kitchen to feed the children, teachers and staff at Watoto’s Suubi Village, where some of Watoto’s 1,600+ kids live and go to school.

This is our story, as distilled in video by yours truly, my wife, and photos from team members. Enjoy!
