Today we will spend time in prayer for Pastor Julius Okanya. Pastor Julius is the executive pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church. He is a devoted follower of Jesus and is very involved with the ministries of the church. He is an excellent administrator for the ‘business’ and planning for Ebenezer, and he is a trusted friend of the Mission Mbale board members. He is also a loving husband and father to his beautiful family, wife Esther and precious girls, Elisha and Gertrude. To read more about Julius and his personal testimony, check out the blog post from last month: https://missionmbale.org/profiles-in-courage-meet-julius-okanya-the-executive-pastor-of-ebenezer-baptist-church/
Precious and Holy Father, we praise Your matchless name. We thank You for blessing Ebenezer Church with Your wonderful servant, Okanya Julius. We are so grateful for the way that he serves You faithfully every day. We ask that You pour out Your blessings on Julius, giving him strength and courage to lead and wisdom and discernment in every task. We pray that You will deepen his relationships with Pastor Fred and other church leadership as they disciple and counsel one another. We ask that You would bless his family, so that together, he, Esther, and the children would serve as a shining light for You. Help Julius to trust in You and to remember that we love him dearly and we are so grateful for him. Amen
PS. Pastor Julius must be camera shy--from all the thousands of photos we've taken in Uganda, I did not have many to choose from!
