Cindy Friday June 1

Friday June 1st –From Cindy Pennington I was blessed to be invited to the Church of Uganda Provincial Staff Devotion this morning.  There were about 25-30 folks.   This morning Archbishop Henry Orumbi made a special request to lead the devotion.  Susan said that he is not usually in attendance and when he is he generally lets the assigned leader, lead. So it was a special treat for all of us. He taught for about 30-40 minutes on the John 21 1:19 (Jesus and the miraculous catch of fish and the conversation with Peter where Jesus asks Peter if he loves Him).  This month the Church of Uganda will elect the successor to Archbishop Orumbi, so he specifically selected this day and this teaching.  The Archbishop was talking to his staff about feeding Jesus sheep, serving His people, voting for the man as the new Archbishop who God has chosen, the man that will serve God and God’s people and not himself.  It is an appropriate message for us all.  Please pray for the House of Bishops as they prepare to assemble later this month.

We received a text message from Walt saying the team is ready to leave Addis (Ethiopia).  they will arrive only 15 hours late.

Susan and I are ready to head to the airport.

Greetings from Kampala!!
