Let the peoples praise you, O God!

THIS SUNDAY, Brett and I (McClain) are heading to Oklahoma City to fly to Uganda!! Candace will be along at the end of June to join us! We are so excited and have been anticipating and preparing for months now. Brett and I will be on this journey for 66 days, returning on August 2nd. The Father has shown us again and again that this is exactly where we should be and what we should be doing. He provided in abundance the funds that we needed for our own expenses AND to purchase bibles to take with us!

In a nutshell we will be doing the following in Uganda: Photography and videography for several Gospel centered organizations, preaching the Gospel to local pastors and leaders, distributing bibles, and implementing CHE Training in the village of Masese. For a bit more detailed description, check out the "Missions" link on our website! Brett and I WILL have access to the internet while we are in Uganda, just not the reliable kind :) We will be updating as often as we are able to let you know what is happening, how Father is moving, and in what areas we need specific prayers. Thank you all for supporting us as we journey into the good works that God created us, in Christ Jesus, to walk in.

We ask now for your prayers to surround us, this journey, and the people we will encounter. May they see Jesus Christ in a new light, or perhaps for the very first time!

This will be our prayer:

Psalm 67

1May God be gracious to us and bless us
and make his face to shine upon us,
Selah

2that your way may be known on earth,
your saving power among all nations.
3 Let the peoples praise you, O God;
let all the peoples praise you!
4Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,
for you judge the peoples with equity
and guide the nations upon earth.
Selah

5 Let the peoples praise you, O God;
let all the peoples praise you!

6The earth has yielded its increase;
God, our God, shall bless us.
7God shall bless us;
let all the ends of the earth fear him!
