Harley, our Minister, visited Kalasa (a village about an hour's drive north
of Kampala) Reformed Presbyterian Church in October 1997, April 2002 and
November 2006 during
team ministry trips from the UK to encourage the various new congregations
of this new and growing church in Uganda. The building in the pictures
below was roofed with the help of gifts from Shanklin and was subsequently
named 'The Shanklin Block'.

The Shanklin Block at Kalasa - classrooms at
the church school which were begun in May 2002 during the visit by our
minister who took with him gifts for this work.
 The building, which they
also use as a school for orphans and five classrooms, has now been built
alongside. Meetings end when it gets dark around 6.00pm as there is no
electricity. Pastor Rev Martin Sebbugo and his wife Gertrude visited
Shanklin in 1996, which led us to start sending regular gifts to help with
their work and mission.
Information about
supporting the work in Uganda, and also in Malawi, Ghana and Zambia, can be
obtained through
Rev John Hall, a URC Minister who runs
The Romans One Eleven Trust
to facilitate such on going contacts. |
