From a ‘Street Kid’ in Uganda to Foster ...

About this episode

Peter Mutabazi spent his childhood feeling alone and forgotten in the streets of Kampala, Uganda, until the generosity of one family changed his life forever.

That family taught Peter about the love of Jesus Christ and what it meant to be loved and affirmed. Now, as a foster and adoptive parent, Peter shares that same love and generosity with children in America.
