Today ministry looked a little different.

We visited Nadin and while we were there, we prayed over his grandmother who suffers from chronic back pain.

When you care for a child with special needs, you quickly realize you are not just treating the patient—you are often ministering to the caregiver as well.

This grandmother carries more than the weight of chronic back pain. She carries the daily responsibility of loving and caring for Nadin. Years of lifting, comforting, and sacrificing have taken a toll on her body. She currently sleeps on a mattress that no longer provides the support she needs, and a better mattress could make a tremendous difference in helping relieve her pain and improve her rest.

We prayed not that her faith would be in us, but that her hope would be firmly placed in God—the One who sees every tear, knows every burden, and carries what we cannot.

At Labor of Love, we believe healing is more than medicine. Sometimes healing begins with prayer, encouragement, and reminding someone that God has not forgotten them.

Please join us in prayer as she needs a better mattress for her back.

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28

✨ Meet Ibra John ✨

Today we visited one of our precious children in the Bethany’s Bees program, Ibra.

His mother asked us something incredibly special — she asked us to give him a Christian name.

As I prayed about it, I felt so strongly that this young man has God’s favor on his life. I chose the name John, which means “God is gracious.”

And today was filled with grace.

🚐 John rode in a car for the very first time.
✝️ He received a new name that reminds him of God’s love.
❤️ We were reminded once again that ministry is not just about meeting needs — it’s about sharing hope and speaking life into the next generation.

Please join us in praying for John, that he would grow in wisdom, strength, and in the knowledge that God has a beautiful plan for his life.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” — Jeremiah 29:11

Did you know? Some of the children we serve in Uganda are being raised by grandparents or single mothers, while others are blessed to have fathers who work tirelessly to care for their families despite incredible challenges.

This Father’s Day, we celebrate every man who chooses love, sacrifice, and hope.

To the dads in Uganda and around the world: Thank you for being a steady presence in the lives of your children. Your impact reaches farther than you know. 💙

“Today I boarded a plane with a suitcase full of supplies and a heart full of hope. Labor of Love began with one simple yes to God. Eight years later, we’re still saying yes.
Follow along as we serve women and children in Uganda and watch what God does.”

❤️ Labor of Love – Serving with Hope. Serving with Love.

When Jesus sent His disciples out, He didn’t say,

“Go and change the world.”

He said,

“Freely you have received, freely give.”
— Matthew 10:8

❤️ From Kentucky to Uganda… Hope Is Being Built! ❤️🚽

Just a few days ago, this project was a dream.

Today, bricks are being laid, walls are rising, and a family is one step closer to having something many of us take for granted—a safe and sanitary latrine.

This project is for Abubakar and Sulaiman’s family, and we are incredibly grateful to Ballard Plumbing for partnering with Labor of Love to make it possible.

Because of their generosity:

🧱 The pit was dug nearly 20 feet deep.
🧱 Bricks are being laid by hand.
🧱 A family will soon have improved sanitation, better health, and renewed dignity.

At Labor of Love, we believe hope isn’t just spoken—it is built.

Thank you, Ballard Plumbing, for proving that a local business can make a global impact. Your partnership is reaching across continents and changing lives.

As I look at these pictures, I am reminded that sometimes the greatest gifts are not the things we build, but the hope we leave behind.

❤️ One family.
❤️ One partnership.
❤️ One life-changing project.

Serving with Impact.

🍋💛 Little Hands. Big Hearts. 💛🍋

Today these sweet kids are serving up homemade fresh-squeezed lemonade on Tunnel Hill Blacktop, and they have chosen to bless others while they do it!

10% of every donation will go to Labor of Love Uganda to help provide hope and support to women and children in Uganda.

We are so grateful that the next generation is learning that even small acts of kindness can make a big impact.

Thank you, Lana and friends, for showing us that you are never too young to make a difference! 💛

🚽❤️ 20 Feet Down. A Lifetime of Impact. ❤️🚽

Today, work began on a new latrine for Abubakar, Sulaiman, and their family in Uganda.

These photos show the pit being hand-dug nearly 20 feet deep—a tremendous amount of labor that will result in something many of us use every day without a second thought: a safe and sanitary place for a family to use the restroom.

For Abubakar and Sulaiman, this project means improved health, dignity, and protection from diseases that can spread through poor sanitation.

We are incredibly grateful to Ballard Plumbing for partnering with Labor of Love to make this project possible. As a company dedicated to serving families through plumbing and sanitation, their generosity is now reaching all the way to Uganda and changing lives.

What may seem like a simple structure is truly a gift of hope.

Thank you, Ballard Plumbing, for helping us dig deeper than a hole in the ground—you are helping build a healthier future for a family in need.

❤️ Together, we are making an impact one family at a time.
