Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations… Matt. 28: 19

SCHOOL MINSTR Y OUTREACHES

An exciting opportunity the Lord has given us this year has been to go into two schools

and teach the Word of God. This combines both our heart for children and for discipleship.

The staff teaches in a way that is both systematic while remaining fun and interactive.

The teaching is then reinforced with crafts, games, colouring, and movies

which add extra value to the school while planting the truths of God’s Word.

Priscilla Kobusigye, who attended “The Growing Up Into Him” conference in December,

started Trinidad school this year with 20 students. Several of the students are from Muslim

backgrounds giving us an opportunity to sow the seed of God’s Word into lives we would

not otherwise have access to. We visit Trinidad the first three Fridays of each month for
two hours each time.

Pricilla, recently wrote h ow the Bible teaching has helped the students to know and

learn more about God, and how they have observed a change in their perception

about Him. I t has created a positive behavior cha n ge and has increased their

cognitive understanding. The staff extended their appreciation for the

encouragement, teaching, and skits . Pricilla continued, “ Therefore it’s our

prayer that the services continue in order to raise a God fearing community.”

Pray that these seeds will grow and impact whole families and the community,

that they will know Him, being rooted and grounded in Him.

Irene Mirembe, who also attended the conference, invited us to Jireh (as in Jehovah Jireh)
Preparatory School. It is a much larger school with 120 students where we visit the last
Friday of each month for 3 hours. Between the semesters Irene wrote this to us.

“Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ from the entire school of Jireh Preparatory School.
