Pre-trip- CDB

Watoto is a holistic care programme that was initiated as a response to the overwhelming number of orphaned children and vulnerable women in Uganda. It is positioned to rescue an individual, raise each one as a leader in their chosen sphere of life so that they in turn will rebuild their nation. The Watoto model involves physical care, medical intervention including HIV/ AIDS treatment, education- formal and technical, trauma counselling and spiritual discipleship. We exist to raise the next generation of African leaders, by pursuing excellence in academic and practical skills, in conduct and moral values, so that each on becomes a responsible Christian and a productive citizen.
1 month!! In exactly Amie and I will be on our way on what will probably be one of the greatest experiences in our lives thus far. I can't believe how fast its coming up. So for all of you who don't know, Amie and I are going to Uganda, Africa to work in a baby orphanage for 5 months. We leave Vancouver airport on the 30th of October and head to London, and from London we head straight to Uganda. This is a very exciting and busy time for us as there is lots to get ready for it. Last weekend we had to go to PG to get caught up on all our shots and there is still so much to get done. We will try to keep you guys all updated on whats happening, here and there and would love it if you would keep us in prayer.
God Bless- Christina Dawn
