Pastor Peter's Prayer for Uganda Mission Team

Although Pastor Peter and Jasmine are currently out of the country, and were not able to wish the Kumi Mission Team travel mercies in person, Pastor Peter has sent prayers to the team:

Dear Aeri, Becky, Ben, Burt, Donna, Dustin, Peter, and Valene,

When I learned that you decided to go on a mission trip to Kumi, Uganda, Africa, I praised God for your courage! This is no small decision! You are stepping out of your comfort zone and even out of your safe space to bear witness to the love of God. You are opening up yourselves to be transformed by our Triune God. I am very proud of being your pastor.

Your Home Team and I pray that God's love in your hearts increases each and every day as you prepare yourselves to meet and live with God's people in Kumi. We pray for travel mercies on your journey to Kumi and back home. We pray that God is with you all the time and all the way, giving you "authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you" (Luke 10:19). We pray that when you come home, you will "rejoice that your names are written in heaven" (Luke 10:20b) and "take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world" (Matthew 25:34).

Grace and Peace,
Pastor Peter
