Worth It

It’s no small thing, traveling thousands of miles by air and very bumpy road.  Roughly 18 hours of flying time plus 2 hours of layovers and over 5 hours on a bus doesn’t exactly make for an easy trip.  But, as a member of our team and first-timer in Mbale shared:  once you set foot on the ground at Ebenezer Baptist Church you know—it’s worth it.

Following the Lord in obedience to His call always is.  Today was a joyous reunion for some of us and a fantastic beginning for the rest.  The crusade is in full swing (literally, there was so much dancing!), and many people are coming to faith in Jesus.

We set out on a mission, we can’t ever really know what the outcome will be, but God has called us to trust Him fully.  We stepped out in obedience and have witnessed His purpose in every detail of our itinerary so far.  He has also revealed Himself when our plans have changed unexpectedly.  He even used the one and only lost piece of luggage to give our team an opportunity to share Jesus.  Our heads hit the pillow tonight in need of rest but also already excited, anticipating what He has in store for tomorrow.

We want to continue to express our thanks to you for loving us and supporting us on this journey through your prayers and giving.  We hope these pictures will be evidence to you that your faithfulness and sacrifice as been nothing less than absolutely 100% totally worth it.
