Wednesday was a great day in The Lord as we open God's Garden in Jinja, Uganda. This has been the visionary brain child of Rev. Bob Reese (the missionary) for many years. God's Garden is a place that will bring glory to God through continual prayer from now until the Lord's return. It will also serve as a training center for pastors all over Uganda and other countries. For the training center to be realized we need to raise about $3000. The corner post are in place and ready for the structure to go up. If you know me, you know how dear this is to my heart because I love to train pastors around the world and this would be a great place to accomplish that task. I'm praying that God would use his people to provide these funds so we can get the training center built. And last but not least, Bob's vision is to expand the ministry to other places in Africa that need the gospel through God's Garden.
The opening kicked off with a Church from a little town called Wabulenja praising God in their customary dress. It was an exciting time as I, Krystal, and Hanna, got out there with them and danced until we could dance any longer. Needless to say Africans know who to praise The Lord. There were many speakers at the dedication and I was chosen as one of them. There were about 50 pastors in attendance. After the sermons and speeches, all the pastor's gathered in a circle and began to pray that God would make his presence known in this place and that prayers would be answered here. Since that time there have been many people praying at God's Garden. I believe this place will help to unite the pastor of this area.
Begin now to pray about your part in building the training center. $3000 is a small amount for the pastors of Uganda to be trained and sent out to preach the gospel. If we had 30 people give $100.00 we could begin the construction immediately and the next time I return we could see the fruit of our labors. I will be the first one to give $100 which means we only need 29 more. Let see how fast The Lord will raise these funds.
