Parental Care Ministries comes to the UK!

Pastor Emmy Nnyanzi & his daughter Grace make plans:

During the month of November 2008 (a cold time of year for UK residents never mind those from Uganda) is the proposed time for a visit to the UK for Pastor Emmanuel Nnyanzi and his daughter Grace. Pastor Nnyanzi is the founder of Parental Care Ministries in Mbarara Uganda, who were instrumental in setting up and constructing the Henderson School.

Please pray for the success of this trip, from the acquiring of UK visas for the Nnyanzis and for travel safety as well as the raising of the profile and support for the ministry in Uganda. The pair are likely to travel to England, Wales and Scotland during their 3 week stay and already friends are asking for them to visit their place.

Mission Teams preparing to GO!

Summer Teams:
There are two Mission teams heading out this summer, one will go to Burundi, where the team will be involved in Evangelism, church ministry and supporting projects for those with HIV/AIDS, and the other to India. The India team will also support churches in remote villages in Andhra Pradesh as well as work with orphan children and those with leprosy.

Please pray:

• That teams are kept safe as they travel internationally as well as in country.
• That they have favour with the local people and are able to share the Good news with them wherever they go.
• That the team members get on well together and stay healthy whilst they are away and return home with lots of stories of God's goodness and grace.

Carr Family travel to Burundi:

A huge change for this Scottish family:
Charles & Val Carr and three of their boys will be travelling to Burundi next week. Their trip is a challenging one since they not only have to get themselves and their luggage safely there but they are also carrying with them items that they will need for the family and for their work which could not be put in their container since it will take a few weeks to arrive.

Please pray:

• That they have a safe and 'uneventful' journey.
• That they manage to settle in to their temporary home
• That they manage to get the various pieces of 'red tape' organised without too much trouble.
• That they remain safe during their time in Burundi.
• That building work preparations fall into place without unnecessary hitches.
