A New School Year

The Ugandan school year begins at the end of January and finishes at the end of November.  Our year is now in full swing and Kasana Children’s Centre has welcomed 80+ new children to the New Hope family.

A Celebration of God’s Goodness: A New Hope Wedding

Kobwin Sponsorship – A Different Plan

By Constance Dobbs, Staff since 2003

When we planned to bring children to Kobwin we also had to think of how we would structure our sponsorship program.  This was a very different group of children from very different experiences – at least half had been abducted by Kony’s rebels and forced to become child soldiers.  The others had experienced tremendous traumas of their own due to the rebels ‘activities’ in their home area of Amuria,…Learn More

During the visit, I was informed that we were able to sponsor a child and become part of their life by writing letters back and forth, financially and most importantly by prayer.  As a male, I was not accustomed to writing letters and…Learn More

Truly New Hope

It’s been several months since our team returned from our time at New Hope, and we have needed all this time and more to accurately reflect on our time there. In short, our experience was nothing short of amazing, and the stories and relationships forged during the few short weeks that we shared with our New Hope friends and the Worcester Family is something that I know each of our team’s members will cherish…Learn More
