Micah
This was a different trip for Micah than years previous. He was less in day to day ministry with the teams since we were project directors, as he had to be more focused on making sure the missionaries were taken care of. One of my favorite pictures though is when we did go door to door in a village in Masaka. We were invited into a young man's home and Micah was able to pray with him to recieve Jesus in his life for the first time. This was one of many personal ministry opportunities Micah and I had, even though it was fewer for him directly than years previous. That seemed disheartening at times, but God spoke to Micah abot this. Most evenings, we would have a service with just the missionaries or our contacts and us. We would often open up the floor for anyone that wanted to share a story or experience of theirs from the trip. It was frustrating at times as we didn't always feel we had these incredible stories to share as we weren't as involved with all the Ugandan people at every moment as some of the other missionaries. Then, during our final evening meeting while people were sharing their testimonies, God spoke to Micah and told him that all the stories the missionaries had told us as a group, Micah had a part in all of those moments. So, in a way, Micah was able to accomplish alot more this trip than he had in any of the years previous.

What a great trip for you both! We are proud of your willingness to serve God. And, Micah, it is true that if you had not fulfilled the role that you did a lot of ministry would not have been done. Good job!!
