The land search is over!

On the eve of Cindy’s first chemotherapy treatment we got some joyous news from Uganda. The sellers of the land we hoped to purchase came down from their original price to meet our offer. If all goes well with the survey, lawyer, and payment, our Ugandan corporate body, Tara Maleng Ministries, will be the proud new owner of 7.9 acres only a 5-minute drive south of our current apartment. This means we can live where we are while we build.

One of the benefits of this parcel is that it is situated next to an existing community well, eliminating the need for the water sharing program. Furthermore, the sellers are leaving behind their vacated traditional huts complete with pit latrine, so staff and construction workers will have a lodging resources while we build. There are no healthcare outlets nearby, so we will be filling a very real need as soon as we begin to offer clinics and, eventually open our hospital and respite center.

What’s more is that our friend, Stephen, owns a guest lodge across the highway, complete with a conference center, full kitchen, and nine guest huts with western conveniences like indoor plumbing and solar electricity. So if you are ready to visit us we will have a place for you when we return.

See all those little road branches? Those represent hundreds of families, many of whom cannot afford to get to the big city health centers. We hope to bring the healing love of their Creator to their village. 

We hope you will celebrate with us and praise the Lord for the good things He is doing in our mission and with our team in Uganda. 

While you’re celebrating at the Throne don’t forget to say a prayer for Cindy. She will have four treatments three weeks apart each starting tomorrow, Monday, February 12th.
