As leaders of the
Wheels for the World-Uganda 2012 team, we would like to thank all those who were instrumental in making our outreach a success for the glory of God, especially those who were praying for us and supported team members financially. In addition, our in-country partners were invaluable and gave us a real-life demonstration of serving the Lord in practical ways with whole-hearted devotion. You can learn more about each of their ministries (Sports Outreach and Father's Heart Disability Ministry) by clicking on the links to their websites on the sidebar. We would particularly recommend the video "Hope Reborn-Part 1" where Pastor Aloysius shares about the ministry of Sports Outreach Farm to the displaced peoples of Northern Uganda where our distribution was held. You can also enjoy some photos of our time in Uganda by clicking on the Picasa link on the side bar.

We would like to give God all the glory for bringing many into His kingdom. With your prayers and God's help we were able to serve 248 families affected by disability, train 35 National volunteers, distribute 185 wheelchairs and fit 31 walkers, 68 crutches and 23 canes. Over 331 people heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ and 174 accepted Him as their personal Savior. Please continue to pray that they will be rooted and grounded in God's Word. Also pray that the seeds we planted will be watered and even more lives will be saved in the days to come.
Thanks to each one taking the time to read our team blog and Praise be to God who "gives His undeserved favor to the low in rank, the humble, and the afflicted" Proverbs 3:34 (AMP)
Jill and Richard Neuenschwander
