.....about the work of the Lord.....

We have been so busy about the work of the Lord ambushing the villages with the gospel, going door-to-door, playing music, doing crusades and engaging folks in matters spiritual and eternal. I personally have had the opportunity to share with Catholics, Muslims and those with traditional beliefs. We have been collecting names and contact information in order to pray for those we have spoken with and contact those who are willing to hear from us again. This week we had great harvest from our evening crusades and Jesus Film. I have been so honored to be a part of this trip, this team, the encouragement we’ve to the leaders and people of Kumi and the impact we’ve been able to make upon the community and surround communities around us here. We have received different response to the gospel as some of those we have shared with have been moved to tears in our presence when pointed to truth, while others have responded in anger but none asked us to leave, but whatever the case we’ve given the gospel – the truth in love, with gentleness and humility, leaving them in the Sovereign, saving hand of God. Thank you so much for all of your prayers and continued prayer
Each year ACF works together with native doctors and Nurses on short-term assignments to help meet the physical and spiritual needs of people living in impoverished villages. Get Involved You can help us succeed right from where you’re sitting. We succeed when passionate people care about what we do and connect with a community of supporters to help us grow. Love what we do? Here’s how you can help: *Share *Donate *Fundraise *Go with us As we seek to accomplish the work laid out before us, we are mindful that the work of intercession is the most critical work. Not all can go, but we all can pray. We are sincerely grateful for your continued prayerful support of our endeavors to glorify Christ on mission with our hearts set on loving Ugandans in word and deed. Here are some specific ways you can pray for our team: -Pray that our team members would be gracious in our conduct and industrious in our labors -Pray that our team members would be flexible in our attitude and determined to give the devil no opportunity to distract us from the mission -Pray for good weather for the Medical Missions work (especially no rain!) -Pray for Brother Festus and Brother Emmanuel Ezeonu that they will communicate truths of God’s Word simply, clearly, and humbly to Kumi pastors. -Pray for the Kumi and Fort portal pastors attending the two Pastors’ conference, that they would be renewed in their faith, refreshed in their body, and revived in their spirit. -Pray for the witness this project will have in the Kumi, Fort portal and surrounding communities, namely that Christ’s name, not our own, would go forth and people would discover hope in our risen Savior -Pray for our leadership team as they contemplate ways of ministering in the future and launching of our medical centre in Kigarama [Fort portal] -Pray for the orphans who will be receiving Bibles, clothing, and school supplies, that they would see these as a provision from God Almighty and see these blessings as a reason to trust all the more in His gracious hand -Pray for our team as we take in all our experiences that the Spirit of God will help us interpret and retell them in ways that would be good for God’s purposes in Uganda, including the call for more of us to go in the future. May God bless you all.
