January 2020

Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that. ”As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.” 
James 4:13-17

Here we are in 2020!
Since the time of Denny coming to America in 2013, we have had the desire to be back in Uganda serving in full-time ministry. And it has always been our desire and plan to return to Uganda in 2020. So, here we are in 2020 and Lord willingly, by the fall of this year, we will be back in Uganda for 2 years. Pray for us as we prepare to return. There are a few things that we need to get done before we go, but we have put this before the Lord and we trust that by His grace, He will be bring it to completion.
We were encouraged recently by a sermon by Dr. Tony Evans. At his church’s New Year’s Eve service, Dr. Evans encouraged his church members to make plans for the year, but not to do so foolishly. He talked about the man in James 4- who said that he would go to such and such city and make such and such amount of money – instead he should of said – we will go, if the Lord wills. We can make plans, but we should make plans wisely – always leaving room for the Lord to do as He pleases, as often times our plans and God’s will do not match up. “If we are willing to say yes to God, even when He says no to us – this year won’t be a problem free year, but it will be a God filled year.”
So, as we make our plans to return to Uganda in the fall, we lay them before the Lord and we say “our plans to your will, O Lord.”

We are ever so close to reaching our goal of raising the $500/month match gift. In the last few months, we have been able to raise $425/month of it. As we have had a couple commit $25/month and we had a new church join our sending team. We are remaining with $75 to raise to meet this challenge! We are praying and seeking for 3 new partners @ $25/month!

As a reminder, we have been given a GENEROUS offer from a partner, who is willing to invest $500/month for 3 years, if we raise $500/month first. Think of it as a double investment – for every dollar given – they will give a dollar! Each dollar given goes to reaching communities in Uganda with the Gospel and Plant Churches.

What does that look like broken down:

1 partners @ $100/month
3 partners @ $50/month
4 partners @ $25/month

But, ANY amount given will be appreciated!

Our goal is to have the $500 raised by February. After the $500 is raised, we will be down to needing $825/month by November! We will be updating weekly, as we see the LORD bring in the support needed!

Thank you for keeping us in your prayers and for standing with us in support. The Gospel ministry is indeed the work of the Body of Christ. Thank you for helping us to be the feet!

Striving Together,
Denny & Cassie
