Bob Gould and his wife Abby (formerly Abby Epley) head to Uganda on June 4 to help build a school and share The Gospel as part of their mission work with their local church, Crossroads Church of God located on State Route 309 west of Ada.
The team will also include Ada residents Christian and Kayla Breedlove and Anna Yoakam among the seven people going this year.
Bob says most of the people on the islands of Lake Victoria live in mud huts without electricity or running water.
He has gone to the African nation six times to help build churches and schools. The nation is roughly 85% Christian and 12% Muslim.
