What was supposed to be a ten-day mission trip, ended up being a 21-day life-changing experience. Zach’s first time traveling to preach the Gospel was during a time when Uganda, Africa was coming off back-to-back lockdowns. He shares his experience ministering to the one in front of him and his spiritual eyes being opened in a way that will impact readers for years to come. With a pregnant wife and two kids back home, Zach was stuck in Africa on the other side of the map with no telling when he would be able to return. God’s plan for not only his journey, but the ministry of Suubi, and the people of Uganda is revealed in a way that will bring hearts closer to Christ. Humanity and their need for a Savior are on full display in 21 Days in Africa.
