Most of you reading here know of the work that Cornerstone Church has been doing in Uganda in the last few years. It’s an amazing story that God is unfolding and it has been such a blessing for him to invite us into his work there. We have a several trips coming up later this [...]

Fried Grasshopper Snack
Posted on 08. Dec, 2009 by Josh Agerton.
What happens in Africa doesn’t always stay in Africa. Here’s a quick shot of Brian Johnson, our Worship Pastor, putting down a fried grasshopper. We picked these up from a dude selling them out of a bucket while waiting in traffic. Seems that they are the “pork skins” of Uganda. Notice how David-translator and [...]

The Story of Buloba Community Church
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 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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
