It is great to be here. Doug and Deanna and the girls are doing well, and have been great hosts. They have a vital, multi-faceted ministry going here, and it is great to be a part of it- even if for such a short time.
We have hit the ground running. On the 4th, our first day here, we had a service at the church that Doug and Deanna have attended. The team lead in worship, and speaking. We were encouraged to see how God calls His people together. On the second day, we organized the materials for distribution, while some of the team practiced for a worship service that will take place on Friday.
The team is healthy, and excited to be here. Today, Tuesday the 6th, we head up-country. Danielle and Cheryl will be speaking at a women’s service, while the guys help to build a church. God is at work in the community of Ijenda. He has used Harvest for Christ to bring reconciliation to this community. The churches are meeting together and working together.
Continue to pray for health and safety, as we are traveling the next couple of days, and for God’s provision as we serve the people in a variety of settings.
