​The people in the photo: are the teachers and the head!!!!

Hey dear friends, this is Rachel Mary!:) I am very excited to share some news with you all!

Our board members! Every person on this board really does care about the people at the school and I asked each person if they wanted a particular role as a member and most did not so that is why you see only 1 person with a particular role.

Board

Rachel Mary- founder

Suzanne- co founder

Jessica Sauther
(Loves the school, she has always been our Technology/monthly donor/911 person)

Will and Eve Rumbaugh
(They love the school, Monthly donors, they work in school district)

Leasa Jones
( Loves the school, we sought her counsel and her husband’s about starting the ministry after Shelly mentioned and they encouraged us to go forth)

Kris Eldridge
(Loves the school, He promoted His Love and SONshine to my prior church last year and he was the missions pastor!)

Ken and Cindy O’Leary
(Loves the school, Monthly donors, they went to Uganda with us and Cindy prayed over our( unknown prayer requisition which was deciding with we start His Love and sunshine in Uganda when it was first brought to us)

Alicia Mazzura (15 years old)
(She loves the ministry so I thought why not give her the official title of being on the board and her ‘duties’ are to help plan fundraisers, make baked goods, create promotional videos, and create any posters/graphic design-like things that you need because I just got Photoshop, so I can do a lot more with photographs and stuff.)


We have had some HUGE donations coming our way!!!!!

We have had Sunday school families present and past give to the ministry!!

WE HAD A MEGA CHURCH GIVE A HUGE DONATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS SO HUMBLED!!!! THANK YOU NEIL AND TODD AND CHARITY WHO WORK AT FIRST WOODSTOCK BAPTIST CHURCH!  THEY ARE ALSO GOING TO PROMOTE IN EVERY WAY THEY CAN!!!!!

THANK YOU SHELLY OWENS! I am SO unqualified yet I thank YOU as it is a gift to be able to rally the troops to love on the teachers!

Calendar HUGE HUGE NEWS!

We have a FUNDRAISER March 10th which is a Friday in the starting at 11-2:) 

Random question, would you all be interested in maybe sharing with your church about His Love and SONshine and maybe I could come talk to your church about the ministry and I could promote the fundraiser! Maybe if any of you are in particular ministries could you share with them???? Our goal is to SPREAD the WORD! So here is my thought! I would LOVE to have to be able to have the Glory Haus Bus again AND I have SO MANY Ugandan goodies but like you I have SO many that I think having some varitty is great too;) You know us Africa ministry people who have 15 beaded necklaces;);)

Scott Weeks is going to Uganda soon and he is going to tag on visiting the school while there!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

We have a trip to Uganda in July 2-12!!! (I may even go to the baby cottage!!!! I will DIE WITH JOY when I see them!)

I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE KIDS!!!!!!

God bless,

Rachel G.

    Rachel Guy

    When Rachel Guy was in elementary school, she was fascinated by children in African countries; her heart was particularly drawn to children who had been orphaned.  At the age of twelve, the country of Uganda became the focus of Rachel’s interest and concern when a close family friend, Nancy Wellham, invited her to join her on a mission’s trip there.  It was on this trip that Rachel visited Gateway Nursery and Primary school and fell in love with the people there.  Four years ago, Rachel was shocked when she was invited to start a ministry for the school.  With humility and gratitude, she said, “Yes” to this unlikely adventure with God.
