Today was a very great day of service to God’s people of Uganda. Many success stories were shared tonight during our sharing time. One of which I’d like to mention. Melodi, Natalie and myself have been teaching the women in the different villages about hygiene, taking care of their bodies both physically and spiritually, the story of Ruth and living Godly single and married lives. Today was a wonderful day of teaching and discussion from the women. They had many questions and concerns. We were able to address them all from the Word of God.
During our teaching time, there is an interpreter to translate from English to Ugandan. This particular interpreter was 16 years old and we discovered later that she was of the muslim faith. She repeated everything that was said to her from the Bible to the women. She read directly from the scriptures and I even asked her to interpret my altar call for salvation. Amazing, she really taught the gospel as we spoke it in English. She was such a sweet spirited young lady. We gave her gifts and a bible afterwards for doing such a great job. I truly believe in my spirit that either a seed was planted or watered today and God will allow someone to reap that harvest.
Matthew 5:16 says Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven. Praise God that we loved on that young girl, we did not offend her religious belief, but we embraced her and showed her the love of Jesus Christ.
We ask that all of you back home pray that God will send laborers into His vineyard for truly there is a great harvest to reach.
God bless you all.
