On Sunday, we were getting ready to go to church at the Soroti Town Baptist Church. The area churches were having a assembly with all the local churches. As we were getting ready to leave, Oscar showed up at our gate with his siblings and they were all ready to go to church. They were all smiles. Since the door to our church was locked they didn't know where to go, so that is how they ended up at our gate.
We had a van load, but we decided we would love the kids to come to church with us so they all piled in the boot(back) of the van and we were off. We had driven a little way down our dirt road and I hear Oscar saying "Toto", which in Teso mean Mom. I looked out the back window and there was their mom. I invited her to come to church with us also, and she accepted. I was so thrilled!
We spent the whole day together. We left our home at 9:30 and arrived home at 5:30. It was so wonderful to be able to share that time with her and her children.
Please continue to pray for this young family! Pray that God will reveal himself to this young mother and her children! Pray also for my friend Catherine and I that God will give us the right words to say to her.
