January Newsletter

Dear Friends,

A late happy new year! I hope you enjoyed the season's best through out January and now February.

My time has been great, I left Mexico when it was very cold and dry, landed in England chilly and very wet, actually now in Eastbourne south east of England where I am its all white with snow. I had a wonderful traditional English Christmas with a lovely couple. And spent the new year eve with family and friends in Uganda.

Ministry news
Since my previous newsletter in December, a week before I left Mexico we traveled with the youth and the missionary students to Guadalajara and Tepic Southern Mexico. We visited different churches, sharing testimonies,singing and performing dramas.

The next day on the 22nd December after we arrived back to San Pedro, I boarded the flight to London, where I was until the 29th, then left for Uganda to visit family, friends, preach and plant a ministry.

My friend James Kirungi and I have just planted a ministry we have called “Loveisking-Westlink Project Uganda”. I met James in the Spring of 1999 and we lived together while I was in secondary school in 2001. In 2002 James realized that God was calling him into ministry, but he didn't know what exactly he was to do. Three years later in 2005 he enrolled into a full-time bible school which he attended for a year, God raveled to him that He was calling him to mintier to the people in Western Uganda. This is what we have summed up as Loveisking- Westlink project, our vision is based on Mathew 24:14, ensuring that the gospel is preached deep down in the villages of western Uganda, that “every ear hears” the gospel before the return of Christ.

We planted and dedicated the ministry on the 9th of January after a 2 days tour of Western Uganda and meeting up with the regional pastors.

News from Mexico.
I am in touch with Stephanie in Mexico, One of my friends has been looking after the church in Delicias, and he says its going very well. Last week was 1 year birthday, since I started running the Delicias Ministry.

I must say I have already started missing Mexico, and am very much looking forward to getting back into the missions field.

Prayer
Unlike last year when I started off with prayer and fasting in San Pedro Mexico, this year the same thing, but in different parts of the world! As I have been traveling extensively in Uganda, I have had the privilege of being invited to teach in different meetings, and as a result during the first 2 weeks of the year, I have already ministered salvation to 9 people!


This year I estimate to reach out to 3,000 soul. As you join your faith with mine through your prayers and support, we can see this year to be a year of fruitfulness!

Love is king,
Donald
