Hello again, everyone.

So here goes my attempt at reviving this much neglected missions blog of mine.  Strangely, this is the first time that I’ve found myself the sole individual in charge of my PR over here.  So I’ll give you all fair warning right now that the updates and news may be slightly sporadic until I get used to this whole blogging thing.  We appreciate your understanding.  😉

What has happened here in Uganda since we last put words on this page?  Well Andrew and I wrapped up the Ambassador Institute class in Jinja town.  Some of those students are already beginning their own classes as teachers and bringing the word of God to others in this area.

Right now I’m helping teach in a few of those classes and meeting with others to help prepare them for their classes each week.

Since our class finished Andrew has returned home and the Jores are about to return here.

Also in the works are some translation projects for the Ambassador Institute curriculum.  I’ve heard that Uganda has about 50 different languages, although many of them share similarities to others.  Right now we’re in various stages of work with the languages of Luganda, Lusoga, Luo, and Karamojong.  This is a big area of need for your prayers as we desire to see these translations completed in a timely yet accurate way.  Some of them are going faster than others but ideally we would like to see some finished work before the Ambassador Institute graduation ceremony at the end of January.

Another prayer request/praise is that in recent days we’ve had a surge of interest in our training as multiple churches from various places have requested us to begin new classes with them.  It’s wonderful to see such eagerness for God’s word here although we’re not yet sure how to supply teachers to all of them.  Please pray for wisdom for us in that.  The fields are indeed white and so we find that we need to request more workers from the Lord of the harvest.  That means workers from our own churches in the states of course, but perhaps even more so from right here in Uganda.

Also, please remember the Jores in prayer as they return to Uganda.  We’re all hoping to see them arrive safe and sound at the end of this month. 

I’m extremely grateful to all of you who have been keeping us and this ministry in your thoughts and prayers.

That’s all for now, I guess.  Lord willing I’ll have some pictures to post next time.

God bless
