Corona Virus has been devastating the world as a whole and families are suffering to make ends meet, find job stability, keep healthy and stay positive... In one way or another, this will impact every human on this planet. This is the time when we should see how closely connected we all are - we are all human and we all need connection and community. This is when we as Christ-followers can show our love and compassion, by reaching out to your local food banks to help with food donations, by donating to causes that are important to you closer to home, by being a source of joy to someone who is isolated, or by reaching out to people in a third world country who will be impacted even harder than those of us in the first world. 

The Stevenson's, along with their amazing teams in Uganda, are setting up donations for the families who are struggling to feed their families due to self isolation, government enforced curfew and / or due to the disease itself. So many have reached out and given towards this cause already - making an impact in lives across the country of Uganda... If you want to help too, if you feel called to donate towards food and support to isolated families in need - there are many ways to help!

See the information below for the information on this - and please reach out to the Stevensons after you have donated to let them know you have donated and the amount - this way they can ensure the funds get used accordingly and celebrate your generosity!

As always, the Bible is full of comfort- and Psalms 91 is a safe place. For those of us who may need that strength or shelter and a reminder that He is bigger than all this, stand on the promises in this chapter.
