MISSION: Uganda Blog Update 04-14-2008

Greetings! Boy, you blink, and next thing you know, four weeks have flown by. We've had a few meetings, and managed to have a Spring Break from school as well. We went to Pastor Garry Way's church in Gainesville, TX (Fair Ave.Baptist Church) on March 30, Pastor David Grice's church in Grand Prairie, TX (Lighthouse Baptist Church) on April 6, and we just had a meeting in Central Baptist Church in Baton Rouge, LA with Pastor Bob Buchanan last night. I'm writing this in haste at the hotel because we need to get going, and I want to send this thing while I still have access to hotel broadband (as opposed to the dismal fixed wireless we have in Bowie, TX which makes things take ten times as long to accomplish). Our meetings have gone very well. God has blessed us. He keeps sending us to great churches, and I am confident that He will raise our support dramatically in the months ahead.

School is nearly done. It seems like we just got here at Baptist Bible Translators Institute, but in a few weeks, we will be graduating. Then, we sprint for the finish line at the end of the year. Be in prayer that we will finish well, with the school, and with deputation, and be prepared to head to Africa in early 2009. Pray for the heavy travelling we will be doing in order to wrap things up this year. It's a blessing to think about being done, and being on the field sooner than it was when we began.
