Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Joliet has partnered to build wells in Uganda with a Ugandan Priest, Emmanuel Katongole, who is also a theology professor at the University of Notre Dame. When some church parishioners visited Uganda in 2010 to see the wells, they soon discovered that their gifts provided far more than just water for these communities. On this week's Global Activism, we’ll talk with Father Emmanuel about his work, along with Deacon Ralph Bias of Sacred Heart Church.
