NGU student from Chesnee spent Christmas in Uganda
By Kyra Alexander, Contributing Writer

Over Christmas break, most students go home to spend the holiday with their families.

A group of NGU students sacrificed time at home with their friends and families to spend their break proclaiming Jesus Christ in other parts of our world.

One of these groups traveled to China from December 18 until January 2.

Another group, including  Katie Potter,  of Chesnee,  traveled to Uganda from December 9 through December 22. Along with the students, Jody Jennings, Baptist Student Union (BSU) director, went down to help.

“The major part of the trip was to encourage the church there and help it to be ongoing,” Jennings said, “We are building a partnership with the people and helped with the construction of the church building.”

For the rest of the story, see this week’s Chesnee Tribune.
