Marissa Amber McGill had a servant’s heart that wanted to love on and help children on the continent of Africa. Today marks the 17^th year since she went home to be with the Lord. 

Sixteen years ago Marissa’s House Projects was started in honor of Marissa’s desire to love, serve, and provide care and resources to children in Uganda and Ethiopia, by Leslie, Gabriel and I. We couldn’t have done it without the generosity of family and friends through the years!

On July 27, 2025, I’ll be participating in the San Francisco Half-Marathon in honor of Marissa, and I’m asking you to consider sponsoring/donating to Marissa’s House Projects as you support me, but more importantly the children we’ve ministered to for the past 16 years.  If you’d like to make a one-time gift or per-mile gift where 100% of your donation is tax deductible and will go directly toward the support of the ministry, then use the QR code below to access www.marissashouse.com then click the donation button from the pull down menu.

Thank you for supporting me during the race, but more importantly, for your support of the children we’ve loved through these years.  Thank you again and take a few minutes to enjoy the slideshow!
