Most Fridays I spend the day catching up on other stuff in life…paying bills, running errands, playing with the kids while Leslie gets a break, working in the yard and such. But last Friday I had all three by myself all day. Leslie had to go to some technology training deal for her new part [...]

I went to Chick-Fil-A early this morning to meet one of my good friends, Jay Walters. When I walked in the door I saw Jay talking talking to a few guys over in a booth. I went over to say hello and noticed that one had his Bible out on the table. Jay later told [...]

“Call to Me”

I’m sitting here in my office this morning just getting ready for church today. Thinking of all the people that will walk through our doors this morning to worship God. Some will come from the peak of a mountain and some will come from the lowest valley. Some will think they are all alone…living in [...]

Picture of a Servant…Timothy

Meet Timothy, a Ugandan in his mid 20′s who served as one of our translators while on our trip this month. Although we were from two very different worlds we somehow just hit it off instantly. We spent a lot of time cutting up and joking on each other but we’d often fall into a [...]

This is Mariam, a 76 year old woman who lives just across from Buloba Community Church in Uganda. After arriving in Buloba our first day she came out onto her front porch and insisted that all 10 of us come into her home for a visit. Once we were all in she made her way [...]

TIA…The Other Life in Uganda

Today we took a break from our usual work and spent a day as tourists. We headed over to Jinja to check out the Nile. Yes, the Nile…the longest river in the world which flows north into the Mediterranean Sea. We rode in a boat to see the source of the river…a spring that flowed [...]

TIA…The Lone Voice
Posted on 17. Jun, 2008 by Josh Agerton.
It’s 6:13 AM Tuesday morning. I’m lying in my bed right now typing in the dark. I was just awakened by a single voice from across the road. It’s a man singing to Allah. I’ve woken up to this voice most mornings since I have been here in Uganda. Across the road from where our [...]
