reviewed Kisses From Katie: A Story of Relentless Love and Redemption on
This is an awesome story of how one woman would give up everything in her normal life in Brentwood, Tennessee to go and live in Uganda, adopt 14 girls, and establish a non-profit organization that collected funds to provide food, medical attention, and schooling for 400 more children. It is a very empowering book that just makes you want to help.
Summary from the back cover:
Sometimes I want to spend hours talking with my best friends about boys and fashion and school and life. I want to go to the gym; I want my hair to look nice; I want to be allowed to wear jeans. I want to be a normal young woman living in America, sometimes.
But I want other things more. All the time. I want to be spiritually and emotionally filled every day. I want to be loved and cuddled by a hundred children and never go a day without laughing. I want to wake up to a rooster's crow and open my eyes to see lush green trees that seem to pulse with life against a piercing blue sky and the rusty red soil of Uganda. I want to be challenged endlessly. I want to be taught by those I teach, and I want to share God's love with people who otherwise might not know it. I want to work so hard that I end every day filthy and too tired to move. I want to make some kind of difference, no matter how small, and I want to follow the calling god has place on my heart. I want to give my life away, to serve the Lord with each breath. At the end of the day, no matter how hard, I want to be right here in Uganda. -Katie Davis
