“I give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus, 5 that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge— 6 even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you— 7 so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 8 who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” — 1 Corinthians 1:4-9
So many times, Paul would extoll and thank God for the ministry that was being done by other believers. In 1 Corinthians 1, he wrote that it was fulfilling for him to see the evidence of their ministry being enriched in Him.
In a similar way, day two saw the Africa team driving out to the Missionary Aviation Fellowship airfield near Entebbe and seeing firsthand the way God’s Spirit is clearly guiding and sustaining their ministry.
Visiting Mission Ministries in Uganda
The team was able to meet the MAF-Uganda leadership, hear their passion, tour their beautiful operations building and maintenance hangar, as well as their newly remodeled airfield, and even climb into a Cessna Grand Caravan used to bring hope and supplies to far-reaching locations.
Following meeting with MAF, they next learned about Engineering Ministries International, which has partnered with MAF to build and share the operations building here in Uganda. The team learned about some of the 150 building projects planned and executed in the last year alone by EMI. Many of the team were impressed by their vision of restoration of people by God and the world restored by design.
Finally, over dinner, a local pastor, Jon Baptiste, shared how God is moving among the Ugandans and where the international church body can be praying.
All in all, the team is thankful to God for these ministries because of His grace that was so evident through them!
Thank you for your prayers. They are needed and appreciated!
Christ Uhles
