The Eyes Have It! Rukungiri AWANA

Sunday, Nov. 5 Rukungiri Community Church began AWANA with 100 children sponsored by U.S. donors. But 147 extra children showed up wanting to participate.

Pastor Elisha Kakwerere along with his wife Rebecca and David Echau the AWANA missionary for Uganda challenged the congregation to partner and sponsor the rest of the children. Before the kickoff meeting was over the 147 children were sponsored by church members. It began a "Mzungu" (the African term for caucasians) ministry from the U.S. but ended a UGANDAN AWANA ministry to children. Praise God the church leadership responded and the congregation responded. Enjoy the pictures of the precious children participating in AWANA for the first time in Western Uganda.

Saturday was spent training the AWANA leaders and learning the games.
