On my last medical mission trip in 2010, God changed my heart and my families life forever. Four short months after retuning home from Uganda, Courtney and I left our beautiful daughter with Courtneys parents and went back to Africa. This time it was a different type of mission. It was to bring our son, Owen Mukisa Willis, home where he belonged. Where God had always intended him to be. He has been such a blessing to our family. It's not by chance that Mukisa in "Luganda" means "blessings". Over the past two years we have had our share of ups and downs but we are so blessed to have him in our lives. He is growing stronger everyday. He is such a sweetheart. He gets that from Courtney. On a personal note. My wife is the strongest woman I know. God knew that she could handle what was about to happen when we came home with a two year old with a troubled past and a daughter that was diagnosed with juvenile arthritis just weeks before we left to get Owen. Through everything she has NEVER lost her faith in God. I am so blessed to have her as my wife, mother of my kids and my best friend. I have no idea what God has planned for me or this team during our upcoming medical trip to Lifesong Primary School in Kitwe Zambia, but I know it will be great.
ALL FOR THE GLORY OF GOD
