LOSTNESS

LOOKING DOWN FROM MULAGO HOSPITAL ONTO THE SLUM OF KATANGA GIVES A GOOD PERSPECTIVE OF THE SIZE OF THE AREA WHERE WE WERE SHARING GOD'S LOVE RECENTLY. THIS IS YET ANOTHER SLUM OF KAMPALA THAT IS OPPRESSED BY ALCOHOL, DRUGS, WITCHCRAFT, AND HOPELESSNESS. HOWEVER, GOD IS USING HIS PEOPLE TO SHARE, LOVE, AND ENCOURAGE THE RESIDENTS OF KATANGA, AND SOME ARE COMING TO KNOW HIM. PLEASE PRAY THAT THE FIERY DARTS OF SATAN WILL BE EXTINGUISHED BY THE LOVE OF GOD THAT WE SHARE WITH THEM.

HUMAN SACRIFICE

THIS PHOTO WAS TAKEN FROM MY TRUCK AS WE WERE LEAVING OUR HOUSE CHURCH MEETING ON FEBRUARY 9TH IN MAYINJA ZONE. WE SAW THIS HUGE CROWD GATHERING, SO WE SLOWED DOWN AND ASKED THIS GUY WHAT WAS GOING ON, AND HE TOLD US "THEY HAVE SACRIFICED". ONE OF THE LOCAL WITCH DOCTORS HAD DISMEMBERED AN ADULT FEMALE DURING A SACRIFICE CEREMONY AND SCATTERED THE PARTS HERE. THIS HAS BECOME A MAJOR PROBLEM IN KAMPALA, AND IT USUALLY INVOLVES CHILDREN.THE POLICE DID RESCUE THE WITCH DOCTOR FROM THE MOB, BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT HE DIED IN POLICE CUSTODY. PLEASE, PLEASE PRAY FOR THE PEOPLE, AND ESPECIALLY THE CHILDREN OF THESE AREAS WHERE WE WORK. ALSO PRAY FOR THE SALVATION OF THESE MEN AND WOMEN THAT ARE USED BY EVIL PEOPLE TO CARRY OUT THESE EVIL AND HATE FILLED RITUALS. PLEASE PRAY THAT THE LIGHT OF THE GOSPEL WOULD SHINE THROUGH THIS DARKNESS.
