Heading back to Uganda - Just the facts, ma'am ; )



In just two short weeks, I will be heading back to Africa. This trip I will be joining and assisting with a short term mission trip to Uganda & Rwanda that is being offered by Olive Branch Ministries.

The team will be visiting Zziba and the students for approximately 1 week. The mission there will be multi-faceted. 
1) Celebrate the opening of the community Medical Clinic and assist in the operations management


2) bring a VBS to the children in the community 
3) Discipleship training for the students to enable them to take the Gospel to their neighbors and friends (to multiply themselves in the Body of Christ) 
4) Baptize as many as want to publicly commit to life in Christ.

We will also be visiting Rwanda where we will be assessing the needs and assets of two communities of approximately 125 people each. We are going to Butare to meet the Kinywa Twa tribes.

This is not a solo endeavor, in Uganda we will be assisted by community members who attend the Zziba Full Gospel Church. They will cook all of the meals for us and the VBS to provide meals for the children who attend. We will stay in the boy’s dormitory at the orphanage and be served by the children who live there.  In Rwanda, our single staff member, Sylvan will be our interpreter and guide as we get an up close and person introduction to these people who are the poorest of the poor in Rwanda.

Please pray for the mission to Africa and the future developments and the people we serve.

Thank you for your love and support of this ministry and our heart’s cry to touch lives for the cause of Christ in Uganda and Rwanda. May God bless you abundantly as you consider our request.
