He's arrived!!

Last week we asked you to pray for Esther Kiyingi, a friend of YWAM Arua and Ugandan missionary to Sudan, who was staying at our base as she waited for the birth of her new baby.

Many thanks to everyone who prayed for Esther...on Saturday evening Esther went into labor, and we are happy to announce that she gave birth to a big, beautiful, baby boy...4.1 kilos (9.04 pounds)!!! It was a difficult delivery, but God saw her through, and both Mommy and baby are healthy. Praise the Lord!


Esther's husband, Martin, and their first born daughter, Joy, arrived from Sudan the day after the delivery to welcome their newest member into the family.






Say 'hello' to Mwesigwa...a Luganda name meaning "God is Faithful". Surely He is!
