Please Pray

Margaret, Jay and Carrie

Please pray... my other "brother and sister" are in Uganda spreading the word of the God, and things are not good. Today during the final game of the World Cup a group of adults/students from my church were watching the game at a restaurant in the capital city Kampala. During the middle of the game a bomb was detonated across from their table. They were able to leave the restaurant with minor scrapes and bruises, and they all have hearing loss in one ear at the moment, but they walked out, alive. Praise be to God they were not at their "normal" table, the one they usually occupied while at the restaurant or they would not be alive. We are overjoyed that the Lord spared their lives, however, two more bombs in the same area have gone off and there are lots of people who have lost their lives.

Please join me in praying for Uganda, and those who lost their lives today. Please pray that we can get Jay and Carrie and their team out safely tomorrow. Jay and Allen (the long termers) are supposed to be there until December and Carrie and the others were to return next week. Due to safety concerns and the hearing situations that are requiring medical attention, they will hopefully be heading home this week. They do leave behind lots of sweet babies at the Sozo International Orphanage that was started there by our mission team. The boys (Jay and Allen) may wait until later to come home, to help with the babies, so things are a little unsure.

God is so good. Just yesterday, the third Clark child, Margaret, arrived home with a small group that had gone over to visit. The Jackson's are very glad our other siblings are safe and are praying for their safe return this week. Please join us in praying for their return and those in Uganda! Here is an article about the devastation.
