As most of you may know, I am leaving July 28th to go to Virginia for a 2 month orientation and then will be leaving to serve as a missionary in Arua, Uganda for the next 2 years. The team I am joining have a very dynamic purpose already. I will be working alongside the Wafler family (Stan, Pam, Jacob, Jack and Joanna) as well as 4 other journeymen (Evan, Trevor, Kelli and Alissa).

Stan is working with Evan and Trevor doing story groups. They are teaching Bible stories to groups and bringing them up with the skills and knowledge to go start their own groups teaching these stories to friends and family, therefore spreading the gospel further since they usually take them back to villages.

Pam is already working some with Kelli and Alissa teaching True Love Waits in the local schools, then going back and doing small group Bible studies to help disciple the kids. My job is going to be homeschooling the 3 kids so that Pam can work more closely with Kelli and Alissa. When I am not homeschooling, I will be helping in other ministry areas.

I am so glad to be joining this team who are so devoted to spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ. Please pray for the team who is already out in the field that God would continue to use them in incredible ways. Pray for the Lugbara people whom we are serving amongst that their hearts and minds would be open to learn about Jesus. Also, please pray for me as I am making my final preparations for leaving. I will be using this blog to post updates. Please pray for us and also, let me know if there is anything I can be praying for you about.
