Yay! The Lord has provided the necessary funds and WGM has agreed to let me return to Uganda! I will leave the USA January 5, arriving in Uganda the 7th. The very next day, I expect, I will resume teaching at Heritage International School.
Please pray for my safety in travels, and that all my luggage will make it (it contains some personal and many ministry items). We all have heard of airlines losing luggage, and there really are some useful tools I'd rather not lose.
Pray for my family; it has been a wonderful time home with all of them, and I've been so blessed to have a close-knit, Christian family. God has graciously helped them to be on board with me. I know some missionaries whose families don't agree with their choice to be overseas. My family gives in so many ways for me to be in ministry. Yes, it is difficult to not spend tons of time with them when I'm on the field, but we really are content to wait for our eternal time in Heaven. I'm so blessed.
Please do pray for the youth ministries at HIS and in the Africa Gospel Church. There is much to be done and, especially in HIS, there are very few other adults (I don't actually know of ANY others) who can help with the youth ministries program. Pray for my strength, love and wisdom; that Christ will shine through me to the youth and their families. Thanks!
Thank you, thank you so much! Your giving and prayers and encouragement are such an incredible help to me. Please let me know when and how I can pray for you, as well!
