I am Ejala Julius Ceaser, an agricultural economist serving among the Ik people in Kaabong district. I first learned of GLA through friends at Daniel Uganda project\u2019s Leadership Training and mission gatherings, which stirred my passion for serving God in this way.<\/p>

Working with GLA has transformed how I engage with Scripture. I now study the Bible more deeply, prepare sermons with confidence, and enjoy personal devotion and prayer. I have also been grounded in evangelical doctrines, especially the deity of Christ, and I now clearly see that God\u2019s heart beats for the nations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In the field, I have taken up teaching at Timu Primary School. I never expected to become a teacher, but it has taught me humility and patience as I serve the community.<\/p>

I have also learned the importance of raising support and encouraging the Church to prioritize missions. I believe the Church has the capacity to fund mission work if it truly makes it a priority.<\/p>

Serving among the Ik has been both challenging and rewarding. It has reminded me that my calling is to plant seeds\u2014both physical and spiritual\u2014that God will use to transform lives for His glory.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
