Come visit us: see for yourself!

Come, visit us and see for yourself -- good things are happening with the deaf here in Arua.


Today as Adam drove off with 24 deaf or hard of hearing and one hearing person on technical support I was praying not only for his and their protection in the laden truck but also for God to continue to inspire, guide and provide for all our partners and our work with the isolated deaf.


Over the past few months we have been encouraged as the numbers at St Philips Deaf church have increased. Pastor Alan (partially deaf and blind) has repeatedly encouraged us and thanked us in our ministry under him. Indeed Alan was on the back of the truck as they left for the village earlier.


What particularly delighted me was the increased sense of purpose amongst the deaf, especially the young deaf at church. They were and are all so keen to get involved.


God is transforming lives and we want to support this. Today an additional 2 Muslims, with whom we have become good friends, were wanting to join the group. Happy Easter!



This Easter Saturday, we are showing ‘The Passion of the Christ’ here at the YWAM base. My concern is that there will be too many for us to accomm-odate. God knows and he will show us what to do. Jesus’ passion continues to brings us new life & fresh hope. A & H
