Dear Mission Supporter,
Thank you for working with me in support of my mission to Uganda with Aglow International on November 1-15, 2008. I took a list of all the names of the people who offered their prayer and/ or financial support with me to Uganda because I believe you were as much part of the mission as I was. I prayed for you always remembering that not only are their challenges on the mission field, but in our homes lives too.
The best way to describe this trip was overwhelming. Please forgive the delayed report from the Mission . I wanted to delay the report at Christmas time so that the report would not blend in with Christmas cards. This is not my first attempt to summarize all the wonders and challenges we faced on this productive Mission Trip. The first summary was too long, as my daughter said. I value her advice. I invite you to look at my blog (on the web) with a full report of the mission at:
www.uganda2008aglow.blogspot.com
I made this blog with you in mind to give you an interactive view of what the mission was like. The blog has pictures from team members, a leader’s summary, letters of thanks from the Pastors in Uganda , summary from each team member, reports from two Uganda Mission leaders and more.
Please consider not only seeing the blog but going to Uganda yourself. I told the Uganda people I would encourage you to visit this beautiful country with its wonderful people.
Our team ministered in Kampala , Kyenjojo, Entebbe and Mbale. 370 people came to know Jesus as their Savior at the Crusade in Kyenjojo. Many people in schools, jails and a hospital prayed to have Jesus Christ to come into their hearts. During meetings the Holy Spirit renewed, baptized, cleansed, set free many people as we shared Christ. At the Kyenjojo radio station million and half people heard testimony of Christ working in our lives and our prayers; some called back with answered prayer. We strengthen Aglow International ministry by promoting new chapters which will encourage people to live a life centered in Christ. Our mission trip gathered the Church leaders of Kyenjojo in a group that will work in the future as a team to see the promotion of Christ in their neighborhoods. These Pastor and Church leaders were encouraged and feed with balanced meals. One Pastor from the conference repented before the Lord, which healed a rift in their church. We prayed for what seemed like countless number of people personally by laying our hands on their shoulder and speaking what ever God put in our heart to say in the name of Jesus Christ. This prayer for many had tremendous impact some received physical healings. We shared gospel stories by puppets in orphanages and schools. We gave away vitamins, Bibles, clothing, shoes, gifts and as many things as our suitcases would hold. We became God’s partner in His work. We were challenged to do many things, some things we had never done before. We became ambassadors of Uganda to tell of the tremendous needs in their country. Every where we traveled we brought hope with us. Christ was lifted up we saw God work powerfully we were glad to be a part of it, so thank you.
I cannot thank you enough for your support and encouragement.
Your Co-labor in Christ,
Holly Lambert
