Greetings friends,
Just a quick note to let you prayer supporters know I (Doug) have arrived back home in Indiana from South Sudan & Uganda trip. God was (and is) at work there developing these men and their training program. One leader said they have something even the government has not yet developed,but wants,- training in the local language to serve people in the local, heart languages! They are the leaders in this area and will show others what Christ can do to reach the hearts and minds of Sudanese!
The students are stepping up to the next level of training and are showing to everyone's surprise (including themselves) how much they are learning and growing in the handling and applying of God's Word to their lives. They are so excited about seeing God work in them that they are designing ways to get their local churches directly involved as those Churches comment on the growth and change in preaching and discipling of these Pastors in their midst.
Thanks for praying and will give more details in the next prayer letter from this trip. If you have emailed me with questions or requests in past 3 weeks please be patient as I have narrowed down the 256 "personal" type emails while gone and I am getting closer to seeing some more personal ones in the midst. However if you do not hear from me soon (next few days) feel free to write again to be sure I see it. Thanks.
