“Till the whole world hears till the whole world knows, Lord send us where You would have us go, Till the lost world hears till the last one knows, The grace of God, the love that You have shown, Till the whole world hears” –Scott Cunningham
Dear Friends and Family,
Brian and Jill Kanyike
Two of Brian and I’s deepest desires are to see the lost won to Christ and for believers to grow in their relationship with Him. This month we celebrated the one year anniversary of Calvary Chapel Bwera. This church was planted by Joachim, a Calvary Chapel Bible College graduate.
On that note we just had a mission trip to Northwestern Uganda to help plant a church in Nebbi/Arua. Two of our Bible College graduates, David and Vincent are originally from that area and have been ministering there since graduating last June. A team of 7 from Calvary Chapel Kampala went to encourage them and help them to begin the church. The team did much outreach and evangelizing during the day and showed the Jesus film during the evening. Over 500 people clearly heard the gospel and 68 gave their lives to Christ. The team greatly encouraged them to come to church and to receive ongoing discipleship from the leaders there.

Besides the church plant itself and those who gave their lives to Christ my favorite part of this mission was the testimonies of those who had went. Neither Brian nor I can even begin to describe the joy we have from hearing how God used and blessed others through men and women of Calvary Chapel Kampala. For us to see those we have poured into catching our vision for missions is beyond exciting!
Back at Calvary Chapel Kampala ministry has been just as eventful. The leadership has had a conference on Effective Ministry. This conference was designed to help us to renew our vision as a church and to pray about how we as a team can help it come to pass with the individual gifts God has given to us.
As you already know Brian and I’s deepest desires for ministry it won’t be surprising that both of us felt called to fulfilling the churches vision by being more involved in discipleship and teaching. We want to spend more time first of all with the ministry

leaders and then with the volunteers. We have seen what God can do when men and women are grounded in the Word and receive discipleship. We believe this investment into those already desiring to be in ministry will result in a stronger church and in more ministries and churches being established. Along with this vision we both feel called to help more in teaching new believers and in continuing to teach at the Bible College.
2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
Brian and Joachim
Thank you for sharing with us in this vision through your faithful prayers and support.
In Him,
Brian and Jill Kanyike
