A Light Unto the World

Hi, my name is Amy Talley and I would like to share a story with you.

My friend, Alfred, who is the founder of Caring Love Foundation in Uganda, grew up in the Kisoro District along with his family who were extremely poor.. so poor that they were looked down upon. Thanks to sponsors who sponsored him he was able to finish school and even go on to college at a Christian college and has now started an organization in his home town to help with children that are just like he was. He helps get them clothes and food and school supplies and each week holds a church service to share the love of Jesus with the children and families. Some of them are orphaned due to famine, or wars or sicknesses.

I came to know Alfred and some of the people who helped him get CLFUG started a couple of years ago and have witnessed the love for Jesus that Alfred has and his desire to help his community.

Alfred recently asked me to be an ‘ambassador’ in the United States to help get his organization known and grow the support to help in this endeavor. With much counsel we believe that one of the best things that could be done would be for them to purchase their own piece of property where they could have the ability to grow their own vegetation, have livestock and poultry and being able to raise their own, and even eventually having a church/kitchen/even housing to provide protection for orphans and those in need.

This would help them to become self sustainable and not have the threat of the place they lease being taken away by the simple change of mind by the landlord if they decide they no longer want them there and also give them the freedom to have church and do what the Lord leads, with their own property.

I believe that with God all things are possible. There is not one mountain too high for Him…and I also believe the church body are the hands and feet of Jesus and if all of us come together we could help them reach this goal in no time (honestly I believe we could reach far more than the goal).

I for one, when I see these children eating together (most of the time eating with their fingers), singing and praising Jesus, smiling and happy as they are so grateful for the little that they have or the little they receive, am so touched by their eagerness and receptiveness to learn about Jesus…they truly have a hunger and thirst for righteousness.

I would like to ask you to consider being a part in helping us attain this goal. Every little bit will help. Please pray about supporting CLFUG. You can give through GoFundMe or you can contact me for ways to give directly to the bank or by mail.

100% will go to CLFUG. I know there are many organizations out there and sometimes it can be overwhelming trying to figure out who to give to, just please consider becoming a part of this sweet organization. You can check out Caring Love foundation fb page for more information about what goes on and see many pictures and videos of the children and families that are being helped.

I personally thank you for any support: sharing this with others, giving, and/or praying that God will bless this fundraiser.
