Dry Bones brings life to dry places

In the last two weeks of March, staff at the Dry Bones Trust will head to Uganda to teach the Gospel to thousands of people.

Dry Bones exists to bring life to dry places by proclaiming the Gospel worldwide, seeing lives changed, and encouraging, equipping, and motivating Christians in evangelism.

From 19 to 22 March, the Dry Bones team will be in Kiboga where forty churches are preparing the programme of day seminars to encourage and equip pastors and evening mission sessions focused on teaching the Gospel.

Around 9,000 people are expected to take part in the four days of training and mission.

The team will then head to Busia where they expect 15,000 people to take part in a similar programme of events from 24 to 28 March. The outreach is being facilitated there by 50 local churches. Being so close to the border with Kenya, they anticipate a number of Kenyans to also take part.

Steve Mullins of the Dry Bones Trust will be sharing the Gospel during the evening sessions.

He says that both areas are facing the challenges of witchcraft, alcohol abuse, disunity, poverty and high rates of HIV and Aids.

“We’re trusting God to do what we know He can do,” he says. “We are just trusting God and for the Spirit to move, and for lots of people to turn to Jesus.”
