• 13 UB women readers made their “I will statement” that we will follow after one month on  phone

Challenges:

• Long distances that was under estimated according to the budget.

      Departure from Ibanda to fortportal- western Uganda

• Women expected to be given  transport refund which was not budgeted for.
• Language barrier that hindered many women from reading and understanding the new revelations.
• Resistance from religious leaders.
• Many other areas demanded for the Urantia books and were not enough.
• Some women from some areas where we last reached didn’t have lunch due to under budgeting like fort portal [tourism city]

Way forward/ Recommendations:

• Follow up will be made after one week and after two months we need to go and make training.

• We need to provide lunch and transport for the UB women readers whenever they come for the training.
• The Urantia book needs to be translated in different local languages for many women to be able to read it and understand it properly.
• The Urantia book needs to be printed from Uganda so as to have them in big numbers to meet the demand.
• We still need to go and organize meetings with the religious leaders that they may know more about the urantia book so that the book will be widely accepted.
• Volunteers [ women disciple makers] who compile weekly and monthly reports needs to be paid some allowance in order to motivate them.
• Low attendance due to lack of transport
• In future we will also need a monthly pay for the coordinators who go on monitoring the UB women readers in their groups weekly.

Romans 10:15, And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As its written: “How beautiful are feet of those who bring good news!”

I hereby bring to your notice that we had a colorful session on Wednesday,the 15th of September of this year as we had a golden opportunity to interact with Pastor Moses and his beloved wife Calorine who shared with us the real meaningful hidden truth in the Urantia book. Everyone was really happy and excited to get the Urantia book, knowing about the detailed information that is not found in the Bible. We were really blessed for that and different groups have already been put in place,youth and children sharing with their fellows about the Urantia book.

I recently joined an organization named Spiritual Family.  I only heard of it a few months ago.  Paul Kemp, and his wife, Monica, started the organization about four years ago to set up Campaigns to request funds for orphanages in Uganda.  He told them he was inspired to do this, and they asked what inspired him to do this.  He told them that his inspiration came from the spiritual book, the Urantia Book.  He began getting requests from Uganda for the book, and before long, there were many readers and discussion groups started.  And soon others were asking Paul to set up funds for them.

NEWSLETTERS OF ACTIVITIES ARE HERE AND HERE

There are only two other countries in the world poorer than Uganda, and the Covid virus has hit them very hard as it has hit other poor countries, and so there are now many funds set up in the Spiritual Family website, https://SpiritualFamily.net. There are other programs associated with Spiritual Family, but the funds portion is the one with which I am most familiar.

Recently, I was asked to set up a fund asking for donations to help someone complete her education.  I did.

I was asked by Mukama Tayebwa Allan to open a Campaign to help his little sister complete her schooling in Uganda.

This is an example of one of the needs expressed in the funds. There are many different needs expressed in the various funds.

The ICT Center is greatly helping in the spread of the Urantia

 Book in Uganda and also being utilized for our Children's ministry materials.

On 04-09-2021 I was able to deliver 60 Urantia Books to our office that was secured from the Second Miler Fund at our ICT Center project.

OUR DAUGHTER ANGELA HELPING WITH THE LOAD

The books are set to be distributed to our committed and genuine readers.

My staff Nansamba Rose, Naigaga Regina, Basalaine John Patrick and Waiswa Joseph   are helping to run the office and are grateful about the delivery of the 60 Urantia Books.
