Posted on 10. Nov, 2009 by Josh Agerton.
Two days from now I’m going to be in the middle of about 24 hours of travel to Uganda. I’m headed back to Buloba with a small team from Cornerstone to spend some time with our partner, Buloba Community Church. As we go into year 4 of this partnership we will be praying and visioning [...]

Posted on 21. Jun, 2009 by Josh Agerton.
Just wanted to drop in a rough video from a few weeks back in Uganda. It’s just a short telling of the story of Buloba Community Church, who we are partnering with. Hope this helps some of you get a little feel for the lay of the land over there in Buloba. It’s about 7 [...]

TIA: This is Africa…and God is here.
I’ve just gotten settled into a 8 ½ hour flight from Entebbe to Amsterdam and I’m flooded with thoughts about the last 10 days. So here goes a few snapshots from my memory:
The family whose home I visited that had very little to eat. The 6 year old [...]

TIA (This is Afica)…Again
Posted on 14. May, 2009 by Josh Agerton.
Something I learned on my last trip to Uganda was a little phrase…”TIA”. It means “This is Africa”. It’s what you say when you are driving through town and a goat runs in front of you or when you get into a crusty old fishing boat to go across the lake and there [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Posted on 16. Jun, 2008 by Josh Agerton.
We had a big day today. I saw Jesus do something I have never seen before. Tonight we are praising him… I celebrated with a snicker’s bar. To share this with you I want to talk about two things.
PEOPLE NEED TO SEE JESUS
Today was the third time our team has gone out to visit people [...]
