A Village In My Heart

What happens when you leave everything familiar behind… and step into a place that changes your heart forever?

In A Village in My Heart, author Jason Himes shares a powerful, true story of traveling to Uganda on a mission trip that would challenge his perspective, deepen his faith, and redefine what it means to love others.

From the moment he arrives, Jason is immersed in a world far different from his own—where children walk miles to school, resources are scarce, and yet joy, gratitude, and faith shine brighter than anything he has ever experienced.

Through unforgettable moments with the children, meaningful connections with local leaders, and hands-on service projects that leave a lasting impact, this journey becomes more than a trip—it becomes a calling.

Inside this faith-filled true story, you’ll experience:

• A firsthand look at life in a Ugandan village

• The emotional highs and challenges of a mission trip

• Powerful encounters with children whose joy will stay with you

• Stories of service, compassion, and human connection

• A deeper understanding of faith in action

More than a travel story, A Village in My Heart is a reminder that sometimes the people you go to help… end up changing you the most.

Through moments of laughter, tears, and reflection, Jason shares a message that will stay with you long after the final page:

Love is universal. Faith is powerful. And even a short journey can leave a lifelong impact.
