New Life at the Ridge

God continues to build His Kingdom at the Ridge.  I wanted to share one special story.  Clint Meyer, one of this year's A.B.I.D.E. guys was recently privileged to introduce a 15 year old girl name Shelby to King Jesus!  Shelby has had a very hard life, but now she knows Christ as her healer, Savior and Lord.  Her newfound joy and freedom is so evident. We all watch in wonder as she grows in her love for the Lord and others.  A couple of weeks ago Shelby proclaimed her faith in Christ through baptism.  In the photos below you can see the love, encouragement, and prayer of her faith family.  Her mom, dad, sisters, and aunt were amazed at the love they witnessed. I trust it won't be long to we welcome them to faith as well.  The Ridge is been transformed by the Gospel one life at a time.

Church at the Ridge: Phase #2

God continues to do amazing things at the Ridge.  A wonderful partnership between multiple churches and the ABIDE program serve each week to demonstrate the Kingdom to this broken community.  Phase #2 of the building has been completed.  Check out the video below.  The boy in the video has recently opened his heart to King Jesus.  This is what it is all about. God is good! Our hope is to finish off the building by the end of the year.  Please pray for the resources needed to complete this project.

A.B.I.D.E. Uganda 2017

In Uganda, A.B.I.D.E. stands for Amagara Bible Institute for Discipleship and Evangelism. Every year since 2008, students between high school and University have been living together for an intense 6 month time of discipleship. During these months, students are equipped with the skills and character they will need to be missionaries in their communities and universities.  I was asked to be the "guest of honor" at the graduation of the 24 A.B.I.D.E. students this year.  When I asked what was involved, I was told you will need to wear a robe, a funny hat, preach for 30 minutes, cut a cake, and commission the students. It indeed was an honor to be part of this special event.
