For My Dad

Before I left for Uganda, my dad bought two new soccer balls and an air pump for me to give away at my liking. It turns out that about quarter-of-a-mile down the road from our Mary's Milk store sits Luzira Secondary School. For the first week or so I passed by the school and noticed the soccer team playing with balls that looked like they were the first soccer balls ever invented and shooting on goals without nets. It also looked as if their was a competition between the soccer team and the local goat population for control of the field. 

In an effort to support the community that has been gracious in welcoming Light of the Lord Global Missions, Uganda to their neighborhood, I decided that Luzira SS was very much deserving of the new soccer balls. I approached the Athletic Director, Kavuma George, and presented him with the balls. Kavuma was ecstatic and thankful for the surprise. He then demanded that I take a picture with him and some of his players as you see above.  All smiles now, but they may not be so happy to see me when I come back and put the team through some CrossFit work outs!

Dad - your new mission is to find some soccer nets for me to bring back for the next go-around!
