Concluded supervision of the four students of Archbishop Janani Luwum
assigned to me. Today met Ocen James at Lakwana parish under Rev. Lucy
Auma, and then Ogweng Richard at Awoo Parish under Rev. Komakech Alfred.
They have all contributed positively in many areas. Lakwana had
average church attendance of 75 christians before James went there and
now they have average of 140 Christians, Sunday offertory still remains
very low, the first month at Lakwana the collection was 2
8,
400 (0ctober), 39, 600 (November) and this December the total monthly
Sunday offertory is 46,950, Uganda shillings. on Christmas the
collection was 8,300 and today they collected just 10,800 Uganda
shillings. They gave envelopes to Christians for them to put their
Christmas gifts and they are yet to receive them back. James left their
home in Awere and came to Lakwana together with his wife and three of
their children. Today he was given farewell gifts which included,
simsim, beans, potatoes, .... Honestly we still have a lot of work to
do inorder for the church to be self supporting, self propagating and
self governing. In Awoo, I met Richard who has also camped here for
three months and concluding in three days. The Church in Awoo is now at
roofing stage with mainly local contributions, one of their Christian
based in Kampala, came for the Christmas celebration, today donated 1
million for buying Iron sheets for the Church, while Lakwana is still at
window level. I get puzzle when it come to the welfare of these men and
women who have devoted their lives to serve God, leaving their land,
families, surely they are called by God. Both Awoo and Lakwana are
praying in classrooms and in Lakwana the vestry was in front of the
Head-teacher's office. My Son Michael Akena joined the Adungu Choir at
Lakwana and was eager to learn how to play the adungu.
