The Most Enriching Journey of My Life: Candice’s Story from Uganda

From the moment she arrived in Uganda, Candice felt something different about her journey. “It was the most intentional and enriching experience I’ve ever had,” she said.

From daily devotions and meaningful conversations to hands-on service and warm hospitality, every moment made a deep impression. Candice served alongside OneWorld Health’s local team—“professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly welcoming”—and saw firsthand how sustainable healthcare is transforming lives.

But what struck her most? The gratitude. “The joy and gratitude of the people we served will forever be etched in my memory,” she shared.

She returned home changed. And she’s not alone.
