School Construction Continues...

We continue to be amazed at the progress being made on the school. We cannot wait for the day when it is ready and we can welcome children from the surrounding village to be part of the vision for Christian Life Ministries.

We can already imagine the children lined up excited about their first day of school in the new building. Dreaming of a future as doctors, nurses, accountants, teachers and the list goes on. To think, before they came to the village they did not even have a chance at such a bright future; an education was a luxury. Now they are excited about their futures knowing they will be successful.

“I was not even schooling like my neighbors and friends. I told my aunt I wanted to study, she kept promising but never honored her word.” Esther Birungi reflecting on her past.

It has taken some time to get us to this point where we can again start construction back up. The work that has already gone into the school building is a lot, but we know that the Lord will provide steady hands and determined workers to get this project finished.

When we are able to finish it, the children will be able to experience going to a brand new school. A school that has been equipped and built with them in mind. They will continue to learn more and we are praying that this new building will help other children in the future as well. Although the completion of this project will take some time, we know that the Lord has the perfect timing for the finishing of the school.

We trust that the Lord will continue to provide and enable us to keep this construction going. No matter what we know that this school will be a place of hope, a place where dreams will begin, and a place where the Lord can continue to do his work in these kids lives.

I just wanted to tell you how encouraging it is to see these pictures and hear your heart! I was with the School of Worship group that came in early June. We really enjoyed our time with you all and I loved seeing all that God is doing in Uganda! Thank you for your obedience to Him and your compassionate heart for all those precious children!
