Ethiopia and Uganda have
stable governments. Both are landlocked. Both are surrounded by countries that
are suffering from or recovering from recent conflict. Watch this video to
learn about the recent influx of refugees into western Uganda fleeing from civil
war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. How does it feel to be
powerless in providing for the immediate needs of your children?
Pray for our UN aid workers
as they serve as our ambassadors to provide immediate relief for the Congolese
refugees.
We live in a broken
world. In Kampala, Uganda, through our Cooperative Baptist Fellowship
mission partners, Christ is working to reconcile the broken lives of refugees
that make their way to that big city. Pray for Missy Ward Angalla and Jade
and Shelah Acker, our CBF partners in Uganda, as they serve as Christ's
ambassadors in this ministry of reconciliation.
Pray for our First Austin in
East Africa team to prepare, strengthen and tenderize their hearts for this
trip.
