Uganda Update # 8

We got a more detailed update from Awe Star today. See it below. Sounds like a tremendous time for Missy and her team. Wow! Praise the Lord!


Team Uganda got to move into huts prepared for them by the Tepez people. Hut living brings with it, interesting challenges…like how to hang the mosquito nets to prevent the maximum number of mosquitos (and friends) from participating in their experience.

Training has given way to real life in the mountains of Karamoja. The teams head out each day to visit neighboring villages, and are working hard at building relationships with them. They are seeing first hand the difficulties of tribal living, where malnourishment (not the team themselves) is prevalent due to famine. This is all the more reason that they would love to see the rain come whenever possible.

The team is broken over the lack of basic provisions the Karamojong people have. Their way of life is very hard.

God is doing and incredible work!

Please continue to pray over the ongoing need to remain healthy, the significant spiritual needs of the tribes, the ministry opportunities, for the team to continue to thrive amid a difficult way of life, and for many opportunities to Story with the people.

We praise God for keeping this group and watching over them!

Thank you for lifting this team up with your earnest prayer support.
