Today’s guest on Off the Grid Radio, Dr. Jessica Ankney, has gone from the lifestyle we’ve grown accustomed to in the United States to true off-the-grid living in the mission fields of Uganda through World Harvest Mission. Dr. Ankney is part of a team of doctors who, with extremely limited means, provide medical care (primarily to children) to the people of the Bundibugyo district of Uganda where she lives.
