Outreach

Its been a busy week here at UMS.  Sometimes when a lot of things are happening, I forget to make posts.  Alejandro Colindres and Dennis Perdomo are here, and the students have been involved in a lot of outreach.  On Sunday we will hold our "Grand Opening" of Ukunda Mission Church.  Yes, I know that we held the opening of the church a few weeks ago, but we decided to have a bigger event as well  Rose Jeffa, a well known singer from Tanzania will be here, together with Baya's family gospel band.   

We've been doing a lot of outreach this week, with the students and Alejandro.  It has been a good time.  There are hundreds of heroin addicts within a kilometer or so of the school who are desperate to see a change in their lives.  Tomorrow some will be coming for a day of teaching here in the school, it should be interesting.  

There have been a lot of testimonies from the past week, here is one:

This is Eric, one of the drug addicts we have been ministering to.  When we met Eric two days ago, he could hardly walk because of a severe foot infection.  When Alejandro prayed for him, he was immediately healed.  

Can't really see it well in this photo, but after receiving healing Monday evening, Eric had one of his friend carve a cross into the hair on the back of his head.  His way of honoring God, I guess.

 Here is Eric preaching to some other addicts yesterday, telling them about his healing, and asking them to come to the meetings tomorrow and Sunday.
