New Church for Bungabunga

We appreciate each one of you and your interest in our blog. More than that, we are so thankful for your prayers!!! God has blessed us immensely by the prayers of His people.

We are excited that a new church will soon be built at Calo Me Lare (pronounced Chah’-low Me Laaaah’ree. I always wondered about that before we came). The name of the church is Bungabunga (pronounced Boongaboonga) Bible Fellowship. The groundskeepers have been clearing tree stumps. We think this is James.

Some of the construction workers have been getting the ground ready, which included taking out a sizeable termite hill. The church will be located to the left just inside the entrance gate. This will be a great addition to the orphanage grounds and a wide open welcome to the church for the people in the community.

 

We went for a walk today hoping to find the mowing of the Lira Golf course in action…and we were not disappointed. This is the way it is mowed every afternoon. I hope you enjoy the pictures below.

 

We just don’t know how to get a set of golf clubs here to play on this lovely course. Dennis has heard – word of mouth – that there are actual holes on this course. We cannot verify this, but we did not spend much time there. Another golf course photo...

 

For those of you who planted flowers/shrubbery at the school this summer… the plants are doing well and this is what they look like.

Next Sunday we will begin Adult Bible Study Classes before the Prayer and Worship Services. Dennis is working hard finding materials for two teachers to use for preparation each week. We have found some online resources but hope to find more. We are starting with a New Believers’ Class and a Discipleship Class. Praise God for the opportunities He provides to serve Him.

We now have 8 new children at CML and there are more on the way this week. We hope to fill the two new homes with 8 more children, making a total of 16 children soon. We will try to post some of their pictures on the next blog.

This beautiful red-flowered tree with the banana trees in front of it stands out in splendor. It is on the last part of our drive to CML. Uganda affords many opportunities to see God's creation and to stand in awe of Him who created everything! He is totally worthy of all our praise!!! To Him alone be all the glory He deserves!

We are praying for you as you pray for us.

Blessings,

Dennis & Margie
