Uganda 2010 // promo videos

Here are the three promo videos that Daniel and I put together for the past three Sundays. More cohesive/focused videos will come over the next couple of months, but these were the promos we put together just to throw out all the random snapshots of a trip to Buloba. We’ll be headed back this October [...]

Haiti Nutrition Project // fighting injustice

Haven’t looked in to dropping in a new tab for ‘stories on justice’ yet, but I’m seeing them everywhere. It’s coming. Cornerstone has been in a series on Nehemiah now for the past seven weeks and we have one more to go. I was excited about this series when we started because I though it [...]

sponsorship // Isaac

This is the little guy that Kristen and I are sponsoring from Buloba, Uganda. We connected with him fairly immediately. There’s just something about the look on his face that is saying, “I love life” while at the same time saying, “What dirt on my shirt? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Both of [...]

Second Saturday // Big House

Cornerstone has partnered with a local agency here in the Auburn/Opelika area called the Big House. The Big House supports foster families here in the Lee County area.

Uganda // Another Day

Part the First—Bethany Village Another killer sunrise. Hard to beat watching that come up over Lake Victoria. The team had the opportunity this morning to go and see Bethany Village. Bethany is an orphanage/school that has been around for around 11 years now. Bethany is a true testament to the transformational power of Christ. Even [...]

Uganda // Reunions

I can’t think of many better things than to wake up to the sunrise that we woke up to this morning and then go to bed exhausted like we are tonight. This was a killer day of amazing sites, sounds, and smells, watching a few people hit the “I’m on the verge of being overwhelmed [...]

Uganda // the travel part

This has to be one of the most lively groups I’ve ever been on a trip with. Several of our team have never been overseas, or have not been to Africa and so they are super jacked about the work that is ahead for the next few days. The trip so far is routine…really long [...]
