MISSION: Uganda Blog Update 08-31-2009

Greetings! National Hoops (http://nationalhoops.com) was a great success. Mike Washer and his associates did a fantastic job. They came in, canvassed the area, recruited several teams, and got set up in a nearby parking lot for the Saturday tournament. We had 19 teams, more than we've ever had in previous years. This was the first time in 3 years Anna and I were in town for the tournament. They completed Round Robin competition in the morning, and came over to the church in the afternoon. Mike Washer preached, and most of the 80 or so people responded to the invitation. All told, 36 were saved. Anna got to lead three to the LORD, and I got to lead four. It's a tremendous ministry, and a most effective evangelistic tool.

In a few weeks, we have a missions conference in Landmark Baptist Church, Evansville, Indiana, so be praying. I'm still trying to schedule meetings where possible, so if any of you have any red hot leads, let me know.
