Connecting with Pastors
The last two weeks I've been partnering with one of our ministry partners, World Vision, at two different pastor's conferences to connect new churches to missions. One was the National Outreach Convention (NOC 2010) "Re-FOCUS On Your Outreach" in San Diego and the other was the RightNow Conference "Lead Beyond Our Walls" in Dallas, Texas.
Journey to Jamaa
We rolled out a transformational worship experience for pastors to take their congregation on a virtual missions trip on a Sunday morning. Journey to Jamaa is a movie based on a true story of two children, Derick and Margaret, who lost everything, then made a harrowing trek across Uganda in search of the one thing that matters most: family. Brian Bird and Michael Landon, Jr. ("Touched By an Angel") wrote/directed this 2010 Heartland Award-winning short film that will take you on an unforgettable journey from poverty to hope.
If you think your church may be interested in this, then be a catalyst to bring this interactive worship experience to your church by getting me connected to your Sr. Pastor. I will provide all your church needs to host The Journey to Jamaa for FREE.
The Children Living in Uganda
(filmed in Uganda)
(filmed in Uganda)
Just three years ago 1.5 million people in Northern Uganda were displaced living in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps as refugee in their own country. Over 30,000 children have been abducted into the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) forced to become soldiers or sex slaves, witness atrocities beyond belief, commit tragic acts of violence against their family members, and bear children of commanders of the LRA. Those children who were not abducted during the war stopped attending school to prevent the possibility of being abducted when walking to school or received little education in the IDP camps.
