#22 - 15 Feb 2006

The church was excited to see Pastor Brian and his family as they returned from the United States. The Sunday they got back, many of the members of CCK cheered and clapped. Some commented on how good Pastor Brian looked. After all—he had become quite fat! The pastor and his family were also extremely glad to be back in Uganda. “I couldn’t wait to get back”, pastor Brian said. “Even though the United States is nice, and it was wonderful seeing our family and friends, I wanted to return, because my heart is here in Uganda.”

When Pastor Brian and his family returned they found the church in wonderful condition. The congregation had grown, and the members of CCK had a fresh excitement for the Lord. This was due in large part to Pastors Joshua Carlson and Craig Linquist who took on the extra responsibilities in Brian’s absence. “We were well cared for while you were gone” one church member commented to Pastor Brian when he returned. “Pastor Josh and Craig did a great job.” We at CCK recognize that this is Jesus’ church. It’s not centered around or built upon one person—it’s built upon Jesus Christ, and we all play our small parts in His master plan.

Urgent prayer request: Next Thursday Uganda will be holding its presidential and parliamentary elections. There have been fears that violence will mar the election process, and that possible riots could occur during and after the elections. Please pray for this time—that peace would prevail, and that the elections would be free and fair.

Matthew Kasujja, one of the worship leaders, and committed members of the church, is moving to Senegal with his family. Please pray for them, that they would find a new church home there. Also, pray for the worship team. That the current members would have the strength and talent they need to lead the worship for CCK.
