One of our VOICE workers, Chris, took the
initiative to present the VOICE program to a number of churches in the area
where he lives. Below is an excerpt from his email to us following his initial
day. The highlighting in the second paragraph is mine.
“My remarkable visit was
St. Luke Kanyanya Church of Uganda where I met with Rev Kasule Kawooya. She
welcomed the VOICE program as a good tool for reaching out to schools. She was
willing to invite us for a Scripture Union Sunday to speak to the congregation
about the VOICE program. [That church has founded two primary schools. One of
the schools,] St. Luke Nursery & Primary School has over 800 pupils. Rev
Kasule thinks this program will be tested first in these schools.
She also noted that they
recently held an executive meeting and one
of the points raised was how the church would reach out to the community.
St Luke Church of Uganda is located in the slummy suburbs of Kanyanya off Gayaza
road. “
For obvious reasons, Chris has very excited…and
so are we! No doubt there are other churches out there who are asking God how
they reach their community…pray that God will lead us to them.
Pray you Have a refreshing and inspirational time at the conference!
