Excerpts from
Letters from Pastors Attending Conferences |
| "I thank God for our Lord Jesus
Christ, for the Conference because I learnt many new and good things which
has helped me in my ministry which God put on my shoulders and in my
heart...the Conference also helped much between children and their
parents...." |
"I came to learn that we
have been hindering our fellow Christians...I started praying that God may
also teach me to reconcile with my fellow Christians...and these two
...reconciled immediately. Hallelujah. Now they are in
peace." |
| "This was a
wonderful message of making peace with others and of responding to
conflicts Biblically...the whole conference was beneficial to us...." |
"In pastors seminar, I was so much
transformed and God has done the work in me..." |

A note from Pastor Isaac
Wagaba:

"This is my vision for the Pastors
Conferences.
Many pastors in the villages and the small
towns in Uganda were not trained so much. They really need much
help getting more skills. Also many pastors were affected
during Amin's regime. When the church was banned, many people were
killed for the sake of Jesus Christ, so the remnant are spiritually
wounded. They need to be refreshed spiritually.
So I feel that it would be good if I can
mobilize the pastors in one place from the District. They come together
for 3 days, we accommodate them and feed them in the same place.
Here's where you can help--You bring
a team gifted in teaching who can strengthen them and refresh them
spiritually."

TEENAGER
& CHILDREN'S
CONFERENCES |
I got this vision in 1996 to strengthen my fellow
pastors spiritually and also to see that our teenagers can be helped
spiritually. We cannot forget our children. They are known as the
foundation of the church. From 1996 until now I have been mobilizing
pastors in one place for conferences. All of the pastors who have attended
the conferences have been refreshed. I therefore need your prayers to see
that I can continue with such a wonderful ministry to be facilitated with
financial support and that God will continue to send short term
missionaries. In the same way our teenagers from different churches really
need more Bible skills to know what they should do as Christian youth. As
a result the churches of tomorrow will have good marriages, families, and
church ministers. About our children also it is good to grow up if they
know more about Jesus. When they are old they will not forget. What I
would like to do is hold a big conference for all the Christian teenagers
in one district during vacations, especially in January after Christmas.
And maybe a different conference for the children 10 years old and under.
In order to run the conferences, I would need to rent high school
facilities, like dormitories, kitchen, dining hall, and meeting room. I
would also need money for food. I therefore need you prayers and God's
provision. |
