Historical Day in Kubamitwe!
This Sunday, October 11, 2009 we commenced our inaugural church service in our new village of Kubamitwe. Excitement filled the air as the SOS team realized the significance of this historic day! We have started a local church for the village people with a Ugandan pastor. The Luganda service was complete with Luganda hymns and worship songs accompanied with African drums. We are now meeting in the Hurley home, but someday, Lord-willing, will have a church building. Unbelievers (including Muslims!) attended to hear the Truth of God’s Word! We were taught expositionally by Christopher Kezaala from John 1:29-36, reveling in the truth that Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world! It is wonderful to have a local church planted where we can invite those to whom we are evangelizing!
How wonderful to hear how the Lord is working through SOS to serve the people of Uganda. You are indeed a light to the world, a shining city on a hill. Praise God for your faithfulness and may He be glorified even more through your new church!
Heard about this the week after it happened, but haven’t gotten a chance comment here on the website till now. Praise our great God! May His Name alone be proclaimed and glorified in the new church!
