P&P
– Prayer and Praise
As we press on in the production of the Biblical Values Modules, we are
also taking as many opportunities as possible to promote the curriculum and
program to Christian leaders and workers. During each visit, we pray that God
will open eyes to the urgent need to teach godly values to the next generation…and
to the strategic and fruitful opportunity available to churches/organizations
here—to teach in the schools during school time.
This past week I had the privilege of meeting some of the Gaba Community
Church staff at their beautiful location on the shore of Lake Victoria. Susie, our VOICE intern and I made the
presentation to four attentive staff. Some
weeks previously, Beth and I had met lead Pastor Peter, and he endorsed
VOICE to his staff. Before I finished
explaining the values program, senior staff Sarah was asking questions about how
they could be equipped to train others in their network. Although they were disappointed that we could
only offer them 5 seats in the upcoming 6 June training, they eagerly accepted
that opportunity. That same week I also met with a City Counselor,
introduced to through our Precious Jewels friends. What a joy for Martha and me to hear a passionate
believer assure us of open doors for teaching Biblical values in the government
schools. She shared a heart breaking story of a near tragedy regarding child
sacrifice. Lives were saved thanks to an
alert neighbour “More than ever we must promote Christian values in our
communities.” We parted ways with the
promise that some, possibly even herself, will join us for the VEC Training
this Saturday.
Please join us in praying that this training will be a great day during
which God’s people will be equipped and burdened for service and that all that
we do and say will bring glory to God. Praise God with us for such seemingly
great interest among those we have talked to about the training.
I pray that as I write this you are both having a restful sleep in preparation for the big day tomorrow. Look forward to hearing about the evidence of God at work.
