SAMAR ISLAND PHILIPPINES LADIES SEMINAR MAY 1, 2008Danny & Cita Montes have a feeding ministry for the street children of Samar and the children that are living in the squatter area. They feed them porridge, noodles, rice and juice once a week. The parents are very happy that they are helping with the children’s physical needs.Families living in the squatter area are generally poor and have many children. They are hungry and some are malnourished. Danny says, “The most important thing to us is that we can share the Gospel of our Lord Jesus with these children.” As a result of this ministry, a church was planted. A man offered his compound to be used for the feeding ministry and he built a church to be used for services every Sunday afternoon. The children are fed and the parents attend the service. Thank you for your generous response in becoming a partner in the Philippine seminar to relieve the load financially. It takes teamwork to get the job done. We are still lacking $2,000 and are believing God that it will come in before we leave. NEWS FROM NORTHERN UGANDA “Uganda President Plans Court for Country’s Rebels” was the headlines recently in our local newspaper. As you know, CMA conducted a ladies seminar last year in Lira, Northern Uganda with 530 women in attendance. They had been in war for 20 years, ending a year before we arrived. The newspaper article stated the government had agreed that members of the Lord’s Resistance Army will be dealt with under domestic law, but he denied that the deal was key to ending the 20-year insurgency in Northern Uganda. Joseph Kony, the rebels’ leading official, and four other top leaders have been indicted by the International Criminal Court in the Hague, Netherlands, on atrocity charges. The rebel army’s fighters are notorious for cutting off the tongues and lips of civilians and abducting thousands of children, turning the girls into sex slaves and the boys into fighters. |
