17 years ago, The Workmans packed up their life, moved to Uganda, and started Okoa Refuge. What started as a home for children in need has turned into many different projects transforming communities and spreading the gospel throughout Uganda and beyond. Their relentless pursuit to just go where God is calling has fueled this ministry beyond their wildest imaginations. In partnership with the government, they are quite literally changing the entire landscape of their community. And it hasn’t been without suffering.
What you’ll hear in this episode is a family and ministry who chooses hard things knowing they serve a good God who has called and appointed them for such a time as this. My hope is that you are encouraged in your own journey to choose the hard knowing how good the God we serve is.
