A VOICE Africa Friend is Promoted!

Although we deeply appreciate our partnership with Scripture Union Uganda (SUU), our contacts with a number of the staff and especially the Board has been limited.

It seems that God is answering that desire of our hearts. This past Sunday was SUU’s AGM (Annual General Meeting), an all-day event which begins with a Worship Service and proceeds to business and reports and ends with the election of new members of the Board and leadership Board positions. The event is held at nearby Mengo Secondary School, walking distance from the SUU Headquarters. We attended with a volunteer, Olivia, and besides sitting in on some of the meeting, did some promotion of VOICE Africa and the June 6, 2015 planned Training. Scripture Union Uganda's  2014 ministry report states that 620 schools were included in SUU ministry during 2014 with a total of 136,448 students reached and 50,144 professions of faith! Amazing and praise be to our God! Another plus was meeting some of the spouses and children of the SUU staff. But, the greatest highlight was meeting up again with Kedrace, our speaker from the November 2014 VOICE Africa Launch, and to witness her being elected to the Board (as the only female member)…and then made Chairperson of the Board of Scripture Union. We congratulated Kedrace following the meeting and rejoiced in God’s sovereignty and appointments. She and the Board have many heavy matters to deal with, including lagging financial support, but we sense that God has her there also to help integrate VOICE in a deeper way into the SUU ministries! Our God works in amazing ways!
