“Watch to see where God is working and join Him in His work”.
Henry Blackaby, author of ”Experiencing God” reminds us that God is at work building His kingdom in the world and as people of His kingdom we are invited to take part.
11 years ago, God introduced us to what He is doing among the rural villages in Uganda, and we have been part of the ministry of Fro ntier Force Christian Ministries ever since then. We listened to Cyprian Masembe tell of his vision of:
- Reaching out to a lost world with the good news of Jesus Christ by planting churches in unreached communities.
- Strengthening existing church plants in order to realize spiritual and numerical growth.
- Making disciples who will make disciples.
- Showing the heart of God the Father to orphans, widows, the elderly, and the needy
- Setting up income-generating projects to sustain the ministry.
God has used our partnership with Cyprian Masembe and the FFCM team to: Plant 9 churches in rural villages in Uganda, Develop leaders from within the original churches who are now planting new churches, Conduct yearly Bible Conferences and Pastor Training conferences, Plant 2 schools, Build a training farm, help villagers with income producing work, and have begun building a medical/dental clinic.
God is truly at work in Uganda and we invite you to join with us as we continue our involvement in God’s work in Uganda.
In January of 2016, we will once again lead a team to Uganda to work alongside our FFCM partners as we experience what God is doing. This will be Andy’s 10th trip to Uganda and Kathy’s 5th. We will be conducting a Bible Conference, conducting a Pastor’s conference, planning for future ministries of FFCM and shoulder to shoulder encouraging our African brothers and sisters, experience what God is doing in Uganda.
Andy will be teaching at the Pastors Conference and Bible Conference, and coordinating the trip with Cyprian. Kathy will be teaching women at the Bible conference and teaching and encouraging Pastor’s wives at the Pastor’s conference.
The cost for the trip is $2,500 per person. This will cover the costs of airfare, food and lodging, and ground transportation for our team. It will also cover the costs of conducting the Bible Conference and the Pastor’s conference. These yearly conferences are a highlight of the year not only for us, but our African friends as well.
On Sunday I was talking to a Ugandan man living in Santa Rosa who has been to many of these conferences and He was a great encouragement as he said ;
When you come and teach the Word of God, it changes things. It makes a difference. Please don’t stop coming to Africa!
We invite you to join with us in what God is accomplishing in Uganda. You can be part of the team by:
- Praying for our teams Health, safety, effectiveness and our continued friendship and partnership with FFCM
- Contributing to the costs of our trip to Uganda.
- Begin to ask God if He would have you to visit Uganda and experience firsthand what God is doing. Half of our 2016 team will be experiencing this ministry for the first time.
