Friend Jonathon with Andrew, Geoffrey, and John in front of their new church |
The boda driven by Carpenter John pulled into the beautiful
church yard where we found Geoffrey and Andrew anxiously awaiting our arrival.
You may remember
Geoffrey from Bugembe Prison. He was the tailoring teacher who, when
released, began attending Bible school to become a pastor. Andrew was at
Bugembe at the same time but for a much shorter stay. I easily remembered that
bright smile, though.
A few of you invested in Geoffrey’s Bible school education
and I want you to know that the teachers at that school had so much faith in
his abilities as a pastor that they established this church for him. It may
only be four sticks and a few iron sheets, but we all know a church is its
people.
Carpenter John and I had a wonderful time in prayer and fellowship
with these men and are so thankful for what the Lord has done in their lives.
As always, John’s influence is long lasting…and so is yours. Our prayers do not
go unheard. Please continue praying that they would stay close to the Lord and
that they continue to be strong against all temptation.
