"If every Christian is already considered a missionary, then all can stay put where they are, and nobody needs to get up and go anywhere to preach the  gospel. But if our only concern is to witness where we are, how will people in unevangelized areas ever hear the gospel? The present uneven distribution of Christians and opportunities to hear the gospel of Christ  will continue on unchanged."

Hi brothers and sisters,

we greet you in the name of our lord Jesus, thanks for the great work you are doing both for your family and you God,, am very glad that you responded to the calling that God put upon your life to move into the mission fields every where as you” stop for the one in front of you”,, may God be your light and you salvation your hope and your deliverance,, may he shelter you under the shadow of his wings, all this many more in Jesus name.

Am working with a team of four guys and we moving into southern Tanzania to Visit Orphanage homes and poor villages there,, we will be do doing the house to house evangelism and teaching in seminars, which will Be Organized by Rev Frank Luvanda of Morogoro Church of Tanzania. We intend to spend there 2 two weeks and then move back home,, it may take us three days traveling there by bus,, we intend to use the bus because it is cheaper and we can even carry some donations which we are intending to get from the people here. Donations in form of dressings, food, etc you can support us in way you can. We leave on June 15^th and be back on June 30^th. If Jesus Christ be God and died for me, then no sacrifice can be too great for me to make for Him."

We are now in the campaign of fundraising for funds so as to cove our travel expenses. We are going through all the churches, we have our music recorded and we are singing, dancing and both preaching as we request the churches to contribute to our budget,, this is however a very new venture its not our culture here but am believing God for it and I want to introduce it in here since God is going to rise more missionaries from my country,, even though the situation in our country is not favorable financially I still believe God for the best in the ministry of his hands in our lives,

We hope to minister in churches and the people we shall meet right from our start of the journey to the end of it. The whole journey is estimated to cost us $196 dollars per person on the feeding and transportation to and from, we are planning to move all of us, we are a team five all together with me inclusive.

These are the guys whom I have trained I have been training according to the training I got in Iris Mozambique. I have been training other people since I was  back and now this is their first mission outside Uganda and fist time out of Uganda, "The greatest missionary is the Bible in the mother tongue. It needs no furlough and is never considered a foreigner."

 We have been doing outreaches within Uganda, we have gone to internally displaced peoples camps in war torn districts and we have seen God move mightily, we have touched the orphans kids and widows of war and we believe God is calling us reach them more, surprisingly enough all my team and me inclusive are both Orphans. So we spread the gospel of Fathers love which has turned to become a blessing to the community and the lonely people.

I have but one passion - it is He, it is He alone. The world is the field and the field is the world; and henceforth that country shall be my home where I can be most used in winning souls for Christ."

"I used to think that prayer should have the first place and teaching the second. I now feel it would be truer to give prayer  the first, second and third places and teaching the fourth."

"It is just as proper, maybe even more so, to say Christ's global cause has a Church as to say Christ's Church has a global  cause."

I always ask my self our purpose and have come to find out that it is only to,,

"What are we here for, to have a good time with Christians or to save sinners?" I think to save sinners.

"I have seen, at different times, the smoke of a thousand villages - villages whose people are without Christ, without God, and without hope in the world."

"The command has been to "go," but we have stayed - in body, gifts, prayer and influence. He has asked us to be witnesses unto the uttermost parts of the earth…But 99% of Christians have kept puttering around in the homeland."

Blessings

Missionary Brother
