A Message of Hope Lindianne Sarno
To our faithful Ugandan correspondents, Youth in Act Uganda Director Waiswa John Billy, Youth in Act - Uganda Agriculturist Joseph Mulopi, World Gospel Ministries Uganda Gumisiriza Julius, Happy Hours Ministry/Orphanage Mbabazi Kevin, student of constitution and government Agaba Josephat:
(Copies to: Paul Kemp, Arthur Sappington, Steve Stutman, Felicity Joy Solomon and 100 Families supporters of Youth in Act - Uganda)
Arthur and I are grateful to you for faithfully reporting your real life conditions as Uganda's people labor to raise more than a million AIDS orphans while hosting millions of refugees from hunger and drought. The people of Uganda are engaged in a great and good labor, to care for the poorest of the poor. The Ugandan population is determined to educate the young. Because many Ugandans grew up as orphans, you take nothing for granted, you are productive from an early age, and circumstances have taught you patience, diligence, sharing, love, respect and prayer.
We all are grateful to Paul Kemp, father of our beloved website spiritualfamily.net where we all found each other. Paul Kemp, a masterful reader of the Urantia Book, serves us all by providing spiritualfamily.net's communications. He connects us to each other, and mentors us--when we ask--into a spiritual renaissance of revealed religion through the teachings of the Urantia Book and the website spiritualfamily.net.
Arthur and I are grateful for this evening's food, local boiled eggs and local onion on a bed of greens we grew in Snake River Music Gardens’ Teaching Garden in Baker County. Our mission is for every family who has a passion for agriculture to have a garden, keep chickens and rabbits, and be able to eat simple healthy meals of plants and animal protein.
Together, Snake River Music Gardens and Youth in Act - Uganda have a mission to administer food forests to green the deserts and avert famine. Our common endeavors have grown, and now this one-woman office in rural eastern Oregon is expanding to co-administer with our Ugandan brothers the Food Forest Certification Program and Food Forest Land Fund.
Snake River Music Gardens and Youth in Act - Uganda already co-administer co-equally with each other. Waiswa John Billy, Joseph Mulopi, Arthur Sappington and I experience each other as co-directors.
I invite you to co-administer until every landowner and land purchaser has completed paperwork and had a site visit for the Food Forest Certification Program. Then funds can flow for land purchases, seeds, tools, tree seedlings and gardening and beekeeping supplies.
My dear sons of Uganda, you have faithfully answered questions, provided essential information (photos and accounts) and kept your word. We have built a circle of trust and reliability. Job well done! As you complete your paperwork and site visit, we invite you to foster food forests in your neighborhood and district, as Food Forest Networkers. I propose that Food Forest Networkers receive $50 for each qualified food forester they bring into Youth in Act - Uganda’s Food Forest Certification Program.
Within a few months, you as food foresters with a passion for agriculture will be producing tree and plant seedlings, vegetables, fruits, honey, and other crops and products. You will have initiated a self-reliant economy.
For now, I understand that you require good nutrition for yourselves and your families, seed money to purchase land, seedlings, seeds, animals, and tools so you shall not fail.
I pray to father God that we together become a trustworthy, reliable administration, communicating as a group through spiritualfamily.net, worthy of funding from a growing circle of supporters. I pray our supporters experience our ethics, view our excellent documentation, and witness our effectiveness in averting famine. I pray our supporters tell friends and colleagues about our Food Forest Certification Program and Food Forest Land Fund. Thus shall our circle of supporters grow, seed money shall flow, and famine shall be averted.
Although food prices in Uganda are dire, and vulnerable Ugandans are losing hope, many Ugandans are experiencing a spiritual renaissance. You, my dear brothers and sons, are bright lights in that renaissance.
Blessings,
Lindianna
