Alex and I (Simon) have been doing lots of
phone calls mobilizing for the launch of the new ministry in Proclaim-Africa
called YOUNG MEN OF HONOR, this ministry targets young men aged 18-35. Our
theme was YOUNG MEN AND MORAL PURITY and the speaker was professor Kaahwa head
of Physics department Makerere University.
In his talk he emphasized on purity as
young men in their work places and areas of responsibilities that God has
entrusted them, to be satisfied with what God has given them as a way of
avoiding the temptation of corruption. To live as examples to other fellow
workers and to live as problem solvers depending on God’s providence.
This
year as committee members we felt the need to start a ministry to the young men
so as they can grow along with MEN OF HONOR a ministry that is for adult men.
There was a change of the venue this time
from the one we have been using for the MEN OF HONOUR MEETINGS to the one
downtown Kampala. There were challenges being that this ministry is just kick
starting e.g We had to start from
scratch in getting contacts.
We thank God that the launching of this
ministry went well and the opportunity given to me as the master of the
ceremony and Alex working on the registration table. The response from the
young Men that came as we do follow up is good and most of them are happy about
its launching and already to be part of this ministry.
In this same month also we had the
opportunity to minister to a high school in the neighborhood through the
preaching of the word and two students
gave their lives to Jesus.
Y.G.S fellowship is going on well and soon after this month we are
planning to launch another group in Jinja near the Nile. This will be
accompanied with the new developed material that we intend to use in all our
youth fellowship as an organization.
