The Tuininga Family Adventures: Our Container is packed!

Our Container is packed!

I can't believe it is done!

We spent the day

holding babies...

Sitting in bookshelves...

Lifting bed frames out of windows...

Writing down items as they were loaded...

Pushing and shoving and then pushing some more...

And what to do with left over furniture wrap??

Wrap the kids of course!!

Lots of them!!

(And then organize races for them, watch them jump around the yard, and laugh hysterically as you make them lie down, then wriggle around like inch worms trying unsuccessfully to get up...cruel...I know! :)

Praising the Lord for an amazing day!!

Prayer Requests

::That we will be so filled with the Spirit so that we become "unstoppable" in the building of Christ's kingdom here in Uganda.

::Good health for all of us and particularly for Dianna's struggles with Primary Adrenal Insufficiency (Addison's disease), Rheumatoid Arthritis and the fatigue/daily struggles that come with chronic illness.

::For KTC: Pray for Eric's teaching to be effective and to be a blessing to the local churches. Pray that God will provide financially for the students of KTC, so that even while they forgo work in order to attend, they will still be able to provide for their families.

::Pray for our church in Mbale. Pray that God will continue to bless her with strong spiritual growth. Pray for the ladies' Bible study on Friday afternoons and the men's Bible study on Saturday morning.

::Pray for our outreach to the youth. Pray that our church's youth would grow in wisdom and be filled with the Holy Spirit so that they would resist the temptations of the world and be lights in the darkness. Pray for the weekly programs for the youth: Friday morning breakfast club for primary students, Wednesday evening supper and Bible study for secondary students, Thursday open compound and Sunday open compound & circle time.

::Pray that our team's diaconal projects in Mbale would be blessed and be used to show great mercy to the people here. Currently, that includes medical treatment at a local clinic (pray for continuing funds and good accountability), and a monthly stipend to the deacons at each of our village churches so they can learn to meet their own diaconal needs (pray that God would continue to provide the resources for this and that the deacons would have wisdom in distributing the funds).

::Pray for education for the youth. Some of our village churches are operating primary schools--pray that the students will receive a solid Christian education. Pray also for the students that attend our church in Mbale to have the school fees they need to be able to attend school and that the students would be diligent to study hard.

::Pray for the pastors of the 10 churches in our presbytery that we work with. Pray that God will bless them with much Holy Spirit power to do their work to the glory of God.
