Uganda: Goodbye, Godspeed

Today is THE DAY when a team of our brothers and sisters in Christ - men, women and children - depart West Texas for Christian mission in Uganda. Through a wide-ranging ministry, this annual effort has impacted the lives and spirits of so many people in so many ways.

Midland's 2008 Uganda Mission Team - 32 men, women and children, some of whom are making return visits to Uganda to continue the mission and the ministry they began in past years - depart today for the eastern African nation, where they will link up with other Christian missioners from other parts of America.

Please, keep them all in your hearts and on you minds, in your thoughts and in your prayers.
