Our first stop was at Kamuzinda, a bush village between Masaka
and Lake Victoria.
Please continue to pray for:
- Kamuzinda Victory Church and its pastor, Daniel and his
wife Jane.
- Pray for all those who came to faith at the
seminars, crusades and house visits.
- Please especially pray for Noreen, who gave her life
to Christ. She is very sick with AIDS and her 14 year old
daughter,
Mariam,
will have to leave school
when Noreen dies, to care for her younger sister, aged about 6.
- Pray too for Tony, whose family are staunch Catholics
and will oppose his desire to learn more of Christ at the
Victory
Church
- Pray that we may be able to find a wheelchair for a
lady who CRAWLED 2 ½ miles
to attend the seminars, such was her desire to grow in her faith
| Pray for funds to pay for the food run to about 150 of
the most destitute families in the area and for funds to buy
bedding where families have none. |

The church also raises money to replace mud houses with
longer lasting brick constructions when funds permit. |

|
Pray for money to replace the handle on a local borehole,
At
present the local people have had to return to taking
water from the pond nearby. |

Pray for the orphanage where we stayed and for the
school. Praise God that there are now sufficient benches
for all
the pupils to sit down in class but books are still needed.
There are about 300 secondary school pupils.
What you see
in this library is all the books they have, including their
textbooks. The cupboard behind the headmaster contains
all their science
equipment – a laboratory is being built to house it.
There are more photos of this school on the website www.africawithlove.org.uk The
charity AFRICA, whose website this is, organise The Pearl of
Africa Choir from this school and its sister schools, to visit
the UK each year. |

Thank God that the registration document for the clinic
that Christ Church supported financially last year came
while we were there – at last!
This will enable local
children to be immunised for the first time. Pray for
Sylvia, the nurse
in the photo, who is expecting
her first child in June. |

Continue to pray for the development of this clinic and
for funds so that the general ward can be upgraded as has
the childrens’ ward where the school’s orphans
with AIDS spend considerable time when they are sick. Despite
what we have been told in the UK, AIDS is still rising in the
villages. Some medication is available, but they must pay for
the more effective drugs. |

Pray for Pastor Vincent Bwanika and Kyannanjula Mountain
of the Lord Church nearby, where Judy has preached 2 years
running. Last year they had over 100 children attending the
primary school attached to the church.
They are part way through building a new school but have
run out of money before putting on the roof. |
