Surgical Theater -- The Construction Has Begun!!Posted 5.25.2012
Believe it or not, but the work toward the construction of a surgical theater in Bombo, Uganda has begun. We were able to use the funds donated through last December's Advent Conspiracy and the funds donated in memory of Marcia Rogers, Julia Kazarian, and Dr. John Eugene to complete the funding needed for this phase of the construction. Join us prayer as we follow the progress of the construction process and as we follow leads for the equipment necessary to do surgeries during the clinic in August. God is at work! In June, everyone will have the opportunity to join TEAM BOMBO 2012 -- through donating some specific supplies, finances, and prayer. All three legs will be needed to see a success...
Kabugo Visit a Sunday HighlightPosted 4.24.2012
Last Sunday morning, Patrick and Agnes Kabugo visited our Sunday worship celebration and brought a sense of purpose and vision to the work we are doing in Bombo, Uganda, and the entire Luwero Valley. What a refreshing couple filled with the Spirit and the Word. Pray for them as they travel back and readjust to life with back home. May God grow their church and increase their ministry in an area of Uganda dominated by witchcraft. We showed the medical clinic video crafted by Roy Medawar last year as a report of the 2011 clinic. If you'd like to see it (again) here is a link. It is a moving account of what God ...

The Work BeginsPosted 4.10.2012
The work has begun. It's a great day. Check out all the pictures here. Two days after Resurrection Sunday and a truck pulled into the parking lot and unloaded studs and drywall. That has signaled the start of construction down in The Pit. The inspector from The City was here today to check out the work in the restrooms -- we just have a couple of minor adjustments to make and then we'll be good for a signature. But the exciting news is that the supplies have arrived and the work in The Pit (the visible part at least) can begin. We've been doing some electrical work, but that's hard to notice. &n...
Resurrection Sunday!Posted 4.07.2012
Join for a celebration of the most important event in human history, the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Coupled with the death of Jesus on Good Friday, this weekend marks a victory over sin and death which changes everything. Join us on Easter Sunday to celebrate a new creation -- right in the middle of the old creation. We have two services for you to choose from -- 9 am features the choir and more traditional flavor; 10:30 am features a praise band and a more contemporary flavor. Pick you preference -- but make sure to worship the risen Lord from your heart! He is risen. He is risen, indeed!...
Good Friday Worship -- 7 pmPosted 4.04.2012
The events of Passion week are heading toward those six hours on Friday. Hours where the Son of God hung on the cross outside the city gates of Jerusalem. There in the shadow of the temple, God's sacrificial lamb was slain. He died for us. Come and remember the events of that day as we gather "in the round" in the Worship Center to worship and contemplate the death of Jesus on our behalf. The lights will be dimmed. The Lord's Table set in the middle of the space. The choir will sing. Paul Duncan will lead worship. And we will remember the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Come and worship with us. 7 pm. Friday, April 6.&nb...

Sunday evening capped a "red letter" day at Peninsula! We enjoyed Pedone's pizza and salad and then celebrated the goodness and faithfulness of God. We remembered His grace with a picture review of 2011 (not "Roy Medawar" quality). As you watch it, be sure to give thanks to God for His kindness and mercy throughout 2011. ... 
A job well donePosted 1.19.2012
The construction of the well has officially been completed! We put the finishing touches on this morning including adding the pump itself to the well opening. At 10:30 AM we had a well dedication ceremony where the members of the community were invited out for a special time together. While I'm sure I'll not be able to capture all the elements, it was a very special moment. The ladies of the community were dressed in their "Sunday best" for the event, signfying it's importance to the community. New pictures are here. The "presidente" of the community shared his t...
