The Many Faces of Jinja
The Ugandan children love to beg the "mzungu" (white) missionaries for biscuits, cookies in a plastic package.

Off to Uganda
Ready or not, here we go!
Fighting the sniffles as we toss in last minute items into our luggage. The missionaries request chocolate, guitar pics, and Sunday School materials. We appreciate the donations people and businesses have made! It means alot to American missionaries to have small touches of home. Most countries just don't produce the chocolate that the good ole' US of A does, unless you're talking about Europe.
In spite of not feeling 100%, we're ready to get the show on the road. On Tuesday of next week, we will travel to the Kingfisher Resort on Lake Victoria to lead a five-day marriage retreat. PRAY for God to do a work in each of us as we create relationships that honor the Lord and magnify Him to the world. PRAY for the nationals as they reach out to their villages with the gospel. PRAY for the missionary team as they seek the Lord's direction in ministry. PRAY that we will all have health and strength to do what He has asked us to do.
And when you get a chance, don't forget to check out www.christianbook.com for the best prices on JOURNEY TO JUDAH and RESTORED HEARTS. Join with us in prayer for God to use these two novels to touch folks' hearts and help them get involved in sharing His Word with others.
