India/Uganda Prayer Update 4

Kevin Preaching Yesterday we went to the church in Potherlaka.  The service was to celebrate the anniversary of the dedication of the church.  The whole village came to the church for a meal.  Not everyone came into the church for the worship service.  There were many there who had worn Bibles and the Sunday school had a special program.  Just as there were many encouraging things, we noticed many ways that they needed clear teaching in the Word.  Pray that a missionary could come and minister to them and live as an example before them.

Drunkenness is a real problem here.  Pray that they would turn to the Lord and that He would deliver them from this.

After the service in Potherlanka we returned and went to a one year memorial of a death.  The man had been distraught and committed suicide.  The family is still very upset about it.  Kevin Olson spoke at the service.
