I met Pam and her family when I was in Dubai, UAE in June 2010. I have gotten to know them well and am thankful that now I am joining them on the field. Pam does multiple ministries in Kampala, the biggest being the Bible studies she plans, writes, and teaches. I'll be with Pam for two weeks before going with Luan to the village where she lives. Luan works with the women teaching them cooking, farming, and sewing skills to provide for their families while teaching them Scripture.
I am excited to see what God is doing in these families' lives as well as in their ministries!! I also am excited to learn beside fellow brothers and sisters and share the Word of God with them. As I have never been to Uganda or Africa before, I don't know what to expect in many ways. I am excited to learn about this country, people, culture, and make connections with the people. While I know some of what I will be doing in Uganda, I won't know the whole picture until I get there. This summer will be eye opening and I pray that God will change and move in my heart. Yes, I am excited for the destination of my summer!!!!
I will get back on July 31st and be home for two weeks before going back to school on August 15th.
My prayer and desire is to be used and open to God's leading and will and to be helpful to the missionaries. Please pray for me as I go this summer. Pray for my family and friends that are worried about me that God might give them peace. Pray for flexibility and willingness as God opens my eyes to the needs of the Ugandan people. Pray for the Simon and Pam and George and Luan's ministries and passion for spreading God's truth while meeting physical needs. Please pray that more people will come to know the true, sovereign Lord.
