Today was
the first day of the UCVM (Ugandan Christian Veterinary Mission)
Symposium. We spent the morning getting
to know everyone, being oriented to UCVM and finishing details of the flow of
lectures. In the afternoon Liz presented
a lecture, Communicating With Clients, and Dr. Sara Phipps presented on urinary
tract surgery. Both lectures were well
received and the students asked lots of questions. Liz was able to introduce herself and share a
little about why she accepted Jesus while in university. There are no
restrictions on sharing the Gospel here.
She noted there were several Muslim students there among the 40 or so
total students. There were also some
students from Sudan
and Somalia. We closed out our evening after dinner with a
short lesson in Lugandan greetings.
English and Lugandan are the most common languages here in the capitol
city of Kampala.
Prayer Requests:
- continue to pray for Val’s Jeep to get fixed
- continue to pray for the rains and road conditions in Karamoja, that we would be able to get out there when we need to in about 2 weeks.- Pray for the non-Christian students we are lecturing to, that we would have many opportunities to share the Gospel with them. Pray especially that the Muslim students would continue to attend.
- Pray that the Christian students will be strengthened in their faith and be bold to witness for Jesus.
Unfortunately we do not always have internet service so we
post on the Blog when we can!
