Our last full day in Uganda ended with a great night of worship as a team. We have seen a lot this week. A great medical clinic serving over 1000 patients, about 50 people making commitments to Christ, the warmest traditional African welcome in Bukeka Village, a boat trip to the source of the Nile River and a pastor's conference that saw over 180 pastors trained and encouraged. Along with that we experienced immense culture shock & frustration. We sometimes suffered from our own ignorance at other times did not understand our place here. Needless to say we have seen a wide swing of emotions that any trip of this length and uncertainty can bring. With that being said, it is safe to say this team has grown a great deal personally and spiritually and God's kingdom was advanced. For that we are thankful.....
We just concluded our last night of team devotion and we had a sweet time of worship. We sang and prayed and had a team washing of feet to end the week. I think it was meaningful for many.
We will attend church tomorrow in Nakawa and say our goodbyes. Our flight leave tomorrow night about 10 pm and we arrive back to CWA at 4:50. We look forward to seeing our families and friends!
Prayer Requests:
1. Pray for the pastors that attended the pastors conference that they would take what they have learned and apply it to their own ministry effectively to the glory of God.
2. Pray for Nakawa that they would take charge of their community and be able to mobilize to follow up on the spiritual seeds planted by the clinic.
3. Pray for smooth and safe travels home.
Thanks for reading!
