FPC Uganda Mission: Update #1


After months odf preparation, a team of our brothers and sisters in Christ - men, women and children from West Texas - are bound for the east Africa nation of Uganda for Christian mission. The 2010 Uganda Mission Team from First Presbyterian Church of Midland will be sending back regular reports from Uganda, along with photos.

Update #1

Dear Prayer Supporters,

Our trip leaves June 17 and we will be updating you regularly as we experience all God has planned for our trip to Uganda this year. Our long journey to Uganda begins tomorrow at about 11:00 am and, Lord willing, we'll arrive in Uganda Friday evening, local time. Please remember us in your prayers. Please pray that God would:

Give our team safe travel and guide us through all the details of getting around the world.

Continue preparing the soil of the people's hearts where we'll be working in Uganda.

Bless all those Ugandans who will be helping out with our team.

Keep all 27 of us on our team healthy and full of energy.

Please pray however else the Spirit might lead you, too. We'll check in with you again once we're settled in Uganda. Thank you all very much for your prayers. This is indeed how the body of Christ is supposed to work! God's blessings to each of you!

Peace,
Walter Thompson (on behalf of our whole team)
Associate Pastor of Mission and Evangelism
First Presbyterian Church, Midland, TX
