It was a joyful moment as I (Tumwesigye) and Mr. Allan left for
pastor checkout on the morning on 16th/09/2015. We are so thankful
to the Lord for Jovia who had made phone calls to about 8 pastors so that we
could meet them on the due date. We took a Boda-Boda each to Kakiri tax Park.
We then got a taxi which took an hour approximately to our destination. We had
thought of using of private car but the finances cut us down: that is why we
resorted to public transport.
Our meeting took place at Redeem
Church. Out of 8 pastors, we meet two who had finished all the procedures
except memorization. One pastor kept having breaks to make enough recitation
after memorization. And finally he made it!
They received each an MP3 as an appreciation for participating in
the challenge. This MP3 has a variety of sermons from trusted theologian
pastors whose heart is for Christ; whose sermons are profound and invoke the
listener to preach in a similar manner.
As I have always done in my reports, the is always observations;
I think one of the reasons we did not have a good turn up, the
project had taken long in the hands on the recipients without being followed
up. These pastors signed for the project in 2012, thus some had lost morale. We
need always to follow up people when they are still warm, so that they don’t
give up.
These pastors were so grateful and they promised to spur on their
fellow brethren to join the project. We praise the Lord for that.
After a minimal time of waiting for any late comer turn up, we got
tired and left for Kampala. Nevertheless we thank God for the two who showed
up. To Him be the glory forever. Amen (Romans 11:36).
