The first time I heard about missions was during my third semester in college when someone sent me a Global Link Afrika video. At the time, I didn\u2019t know anything about GLA, but as I watched, something stirred in my heart. I prayed and told God, \u201cI wish I could be one of those people going out into places where there is no gospel.\u201d<\/p>

Two semesters later, in semester five, the GLA team came to my school for a training. During the session, they played the very same video I had watched earlier. In that moment, I knew this was not a coincidence. I felt that God was calling me to take part in His work, and I signed up for the missionary internship program.<\/p>

Before joining GLA, I believed missions was mainly for Westerners\/Whites. I thought they were the ones who brought the gospel to Africa, so missionary work was for them. But through the internship, I have learned that anyone can be involved in missions if God places a conviction on their heart.<\/p>

These three months in Kaabong, serving among the Karamojong community, have helped me grow deeply in my faith. I have learned that I can hear God through Scripture, through burdens He places on my heart, and through the conviction of the Holy Spirit. I have also experienced Him at work in practical ways.<\/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

One lesson that stands out is that God is looking for willing hearts. When we draw close to Him and fellowship with Him, He reveals Himself more clearly. I have also discovered that people are ready to hear about God. Many are willing to know Him, we just need to go and share the gospel with them.<\/p>

In these few months, I have seen God\u2019s hand in ways I had never experienced before. One testimony came when I was praying and trusting God for financial provision. I asked Him to show me practically how I could trust Him in this area. That Friday, I fasted. Then on Saturday evening at around 6 pm, I received an SMS notification that I had received UGX 21,000 from a sister who is a fellow missionary. This increased my trust in God. I now know that He truly provides for my needs.<\/p>

\" These three months have strengthened\nmy faith and deepened my desire to\ncontinue being part of His mission.\"<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Another testimony happened through our hospitality ministry at Kaabong Referral Hospital, where we provide meals to patients. One Tuesday, a woman in the surgical ward told us she was tired of eating posho and beans and wanted something different. Her words stayed with me.<\/p>

On Friday morning during prayer, I felt a heavy burden in my heart that I could not shake. I tried to keep myself busy, but the burden remained. That afternoon, I bought some bread and went with the school leader to visit her. I shared with her from Jeremiah 30:12\u201318, and we prayed together with others in the ward. After praying, I felt the burden lift.<\/p>

Through this experience, I learned that God cares deeply for His people. He provides not only physical needs but also spiritual nourishment. I continue to pray for those who are hungry and thirsty to come to Christ so that He can fill them. I also pray that God will use me as a vessel to reach those who do not yet know Him. Serving in Kaabong has shown me that when God calls, He also walks with us.<\/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
