Peace and grace to you, mighty prayer warriors,
It is Tuesday and I’m at Phil’s house finishing my packing. I leave Uganda tomorrow, Wed., Aug. 26 and I arrive in San Antonio on Thursday, Aug. 27. Your prayers have enabled us to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to remote villages and islands. People have received the gospel through Bibles, teachings, Jesus film and the Books of Hope. You have defeated the kingdom of darkness and advanced the Kingdom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Here is a summary of the ministry from July 13 to Aug. 23, a total of 42 days.
8 islands received the Gospel
38 village churches received the Gospel
2 orphanages/schools received school supplies
142 Bibles were given to churches (5 to a Bible School)
3200 Books of Hope went to homes given out by the local churches
2095 people were taught the Ten Commandments, Salvation, Holiness, Repentance, etc.
9090 people saw the Jesus film in their native language.
310 people came forward to receive salvations. Hallelujah!
Many more were saved but didn’t indicate so.
Planted a new church and ordained its new pastor on Simwe Island.
We have been sowing the seed of the Word of God. He is in charge of the crop. Sometimes we were plowing up hard ground, sometimes we were planting seeds, sometimes watering (discipling) and sometimes we harvested. Glory to our God and King!
You have been obedient to the call of the Great Commission by faithfully praying and giving of your resources. We are a team and our rewards are in heaven. Your mansion is beautiful and I hope our mansions are close to one another.
Please continue to pray for the new believers, the new pastor, the new church and all those who have received the Word of God. Pray for travel mercies for me.
I love you and I’m blessed to be serving the Lord with you. I’ll email you when I get home.
Your sister in Christ,
In service to our King, Jesus,
Sandy
