| THE FRIDAY STORY |
This story comes from George Hage. With amazing support from three others in Boise, Idaho, he has raised funds for six containers of wheelchairs and has lead two mission trips to Uganda. Here is a story from George’s last trip:
On our trip in June of 2007, my wife, Renee, Dr. Wendell and his wife, Donna, had the opportunity to travel to northern Uganda where we were a part of a distribution of 550 wheelchairs. It was in Gulu that we met Pastor Michael King. Pastor King has polio. He is 45 years old and has crawled since the age of three. Every Sunday Pastor King crawls in front of his congregation, climbs up on a bench and begins the service.
He lives in a world of civil war, poverty and many forms of suffering. Pastor King is married and has seven children. During the week he can be found, literally, on the streets of Gulu, repairing shoes to provide for his family. Life is very hard for Pastor King, but that day, we helped put a smile on his face. We gave him his first pulpit, his new wheelchair. Pastor King now preaches from his new wheelchair.

We were happy to be a part of it. |
