EWT Mission Team Headed to Uganda

God is sending our first "official" mission team to Uganda from May 23 to June 3. The team consists of 16 members from Statesville, Wilmington, and Charlotte. Each member is filled with anticipation and excitement as they are making their preparations to go. What a blessing they have been as well as others who have been involved in the preparation of this ministry. To each of you, we say a big "thanks".

As a result of all the efforts, suitcases are jammed packed with clothes, books, sheets, towels, medical supplies, games, etc. There is a new pair of shoes for every child. Money has been provided for all the additional needs and supplies that will be purchased when the team arrives. Indeed God is good as He so marvelously works through His people.

Part of the team will be working at Mama Mary's Orphanage each day. They will be painting, cleaning, and sprucing up the home. They will also be loving-on and interacting with the children. Other members of the team will be sharing Christ love in prisons, neighborhoods, and high schools. All the team members will be involved in evangelism and food distribution.

Please pray for them! It is only through God's strength that they can be effective in all that they have set out to do. We will be posting specific prayer request for each day of their work and journey beginning on May 23. We are most grateful to all of you who will join us as prayer partners in this ministry. Prayer will be the key to all that is accomplished!

May JESUS name be lifted higher!!!
