Details of this are still scanty as the Church of Uganda works out what role they would like YEA to play in this particular conference. One of the board members, Mike Chibita is keen on being part of this. We pray that the details come in soon to make planning easier |
| 13-20 Dec | Youth Conference | Masindi | Prosper | Prosper will lead a team of three people to represent YEA. This is a result of the partnership with the Anglican Church in this region.

Welcome to the advance program for YEA until August. Some dates and details are not yet set so please see this as a prayer guide and we will try and get more info to you as we confirm plans at this end.
Please note that Uganda is going through a pretty turbulent period both politically and financially. This makes forward planning tricky and also leads to some last minute changes that we may not have time to communicate to you. Please be patient and feel free to email us for clarity if you want more details.

Have a great time with Steve – it is great to know that he will meet Florent, Giscard and Edgar as well as the Ugandan board while he is there. Hopefully he will also be able to sample a great cup of coffee in AMIGOS.
I am excited for Steve to spend time with you & the YEA volunteers. For the Burundi and Kenya partners to come and meet. For the relationship with KBC. For all what is going to happen…May you have all a great time together. I can’t wait for all what Steve is going to share on his return. And hopefully he will witness the start and running of Amigos!
This is a considerable progress – since 2006, the last time I served at Youthworx. A little more of the content of discipleship would suffice.
Ok read the programme for September, will take note and pray for the different missions, work and events to happen. God bless Ingrid
Hi there you all
Busy programme with lots of travelling! I’m amazed at for what you are going to accomplish in different parts of the country and even more to come over the borders of Uganda! The weddings and VOW….Well lots to be prayed for.
May God keep you all safe and well in His work for Him
Love and blessings to you all
Ingrid
