The church in Milton, Kentucky gave the</div> <bR> <div> money to construct it.  The cost was $2,000.00.  The Milton church is excited about helping the Christians in that part of the world.</div> <bR> <div> Because of the Lord,</div> <bR> <div> Barry</div> <bR> <div> White Fields Evangelism </div> <bR> <div> (04- 07 - 09)</div> <bR> <div>  </div> <bR> <div> (Posted 06 - 23 - 09)</div> <bR> <div>  Preaching the word in Uganda and Rwanda</div> <bR> <div>          I want to thank each person who prayed for Jeff Chandler and I in May. We had a safe trip to East Africa and back. Jeff was able to teach and preach in Uganda for 8 days. I was there for 5 days. It was great to be able to return to Uganda. My first trip there was 3 years ago. There are alot of Pentecostal people in Africa. If you've been there to evangelize, you realize what some of the challenges are. They need to hear about the church that the Lord promised to build. We were staying in Kampala. It's the capital of Uganda. It's a very busy city. There are alot of Muslims there. Colonel Gaddafi (from Libya) built a huge mosque on a hill in the city that can be seen from quite a distance. There was a smaller mosque about two hundred yards from our hotel room. We slept with our windows open, so it was easy for us to hear the Muslim call to prayer.   Two of the three congregations in Uganda that allowed us to speak to them were Pentecostal. The people seemed to be very hungry for the word of God. There were 26 people immersed into Christ while we were there. We thank God for their decisions! Since we've returned, we've learned that 17 others have obeyed the gospel.  Alot of teaching was done on the subjects of the church, the Lord's Supper, and the Holy Spirit.</div> <div>          </div> <div>                  FUTURE GOALS AND PLANS</div> <div>            Jeff and I are working to raise money to buy land for the church that Jehoshophat Kakooza leads. It is in a village a few miles from Kampala. At this time, the church is renting the building that is on the land. The owner wants to sell the property. It will take $6,000.00 to buy it. We believe that this project needs to be our top physical priority. It's a good location, and Jehoshophat lives nearby. We want to ask you to pray with us about this need. We believe that doing this is crucial for the church of Christ in Uganda. Would the church that you are a part of be interested in helping with this project? If 40 churches are willing to give $150.00 each, we can see that Jehoshophat gets the money to buy the land for the church. If you would like to help with this, checks can be made out to White Fields Overseas Evangelism. You can write on the check that it is for the land in Uganda. </div> <div>              We hope to return to Uganda in 2010. We want to conduct seminars for 3 days for about six or eight of the men. We feel that teaching these men is a very important part of the work that needs to be done there. (2 Timothy 2:2)  </div> <div>                  I was also able to spend three days in Rwanda. I had never been there. Rwanda is a beautiful country with beautiful people. Many of them have seen more suffering than we can even imagine. Many of you probably remember hearing about the genocide that took place there in 1994. Between 800,000 and one million Rwandans were killed. (possibly as much as 20% of the population)  I've wanted to go there since I went to Uganda the first time. The country is just to the south of Uganda. I was able to meet James Mulisa. He is a friend of one of the Ugandan men. He leads a large congregation with Pentecostal beliefs.   I had 5 preaching and teaching opportunities while I was there. I was glad to be able to speak about the Lord's church, and about how a person becomes a part of it. </div> <div>              I want to tell you about one of the highlights of those three days that I spent in Rwanda. I was in Kigali. It is the capital of the country. One of the men in the congregation that James leads works at a big bank downtown. He wanted to know if I would come over to the bank to lead a bible study when the employees stopped for lunch. I've never had that kind of an opportunity at a bank in America! The small room that we were in would not hold everybody. Some of them were sitting in chairs in the hallway. I was impressed because they wanted to spend part of their lunch break listening to the word of God. A couple of the men have told me that I need to stay longer the next time that I'm able to be with them. I'm thankful for the contacts that were made there, and in Uganda. I'm glad that the doors are open  so that we can return to those nations to teach those people again. As you know, many people who believe in the Lord Jesus need to be taught more about His church that began on Pentecost.</div> <div>          </div> <div>          White Fields Overseas Evangelism</div> <div>          P.O.
