The Mission Continues…





For those who haven’t seen, or heard from, us yet, we just wanted to follow-up and let everyone know that we arrived back safely in the States.  We got back on July 2, and started new jobs on July 7!  Not much time to acclimate to being back in Colorado as we had planned – and no time to go visit family and friends, but it’s all good.  We are continuing our missions work, and doing outreach, in our own way through our flood relief efforts to those here in Colorado.  Our new jobs are temporary positions for 1-year, funded through FEMA – we are employed through Catholic Charities working for the Long Term Flood Recovery Group of Boulder; Kris doing Case Management and Dean doing Construction Management.

It is good to be back home, but we are also missing our second home which is now in Uganda.  The past year went by so fast, and in many ways seems like a blur -- but it was an unforgettable time of ministry and in making new friends (many who are now like family to us).

While back in Colorado, we may now be far from our Ugandan home, but home is where the heart is and distance is short between friends.  Throughout the year, we will continue to use this Blog from time-to-time to keep you updated on fundraising events and other opportunities for you to stay and/or get involved.  Most notably, will be our Nativity High School sponsorship renewals and drive to recruit new sponsors this fall at Nativity of Our Lord Catholic Church in Broomfield as we prepare for the 2015 school year and new students enrolling in the school.

Peace and all good,

Kris & Dean
