Missions Report- November 2013
Part 1
This mission begins in Atlanta Georgia, U.S.A. on
November 19, 2013. The experience at Atlanta International Airport was
uneventful with easy baggage and boarding for a short flight to Newark aboard a
commuter type aircraft------2.5 hours duration. Unfortunately, my camera bag
was lost/stolen aboard that flight. What a disappointment since I had planned
to leave that Sony Camcorder with Pastor Bita [Jimmy] in Uganda to film monthly
reports of missions to be entered into
our developing website and blogspot [www.biblesforuganda.com and WWW.biblesforuganda.blogspot.com]. A brief wait for my next
flight, an eight hour flight to Brussels via United. A four hour wait followed
in Brussels, then a very uncomfortable eight hour flight aboard a Brussels
Airline twin engine Airbus. "Airbus" is notorious for robbing
passenger space to accomodate more passengers. A rather small fellow sat
directly in front of me and whined to the Cabin Host that I would not allow him
to fully recline due to my own stature of six feet four inches, even though he
had an empty seat right next to him. For me, it was like being strapped to an
infant safety seat for over ten hours including a stop in Burundi for one hour
to offload passengers.

Finally arrived in Entebbe with expectations of a joyous
reception--------nobody showed. I was sure that they must have misunderstood
the flight time or date. I waited on the receiving deck for about forty five
minutes and decided this must be the case so I flagged a transport car and went
searching for accommodations. I was finally settled for the night by 2:30 AM
Uganda Time. I fired up my laptop and sent e-mails to everyone telling them how
to find me. I then took the only hot shower that I had during my entire time in
Uganda. In the morning I opened my e-mail and wow, what expressions of remorse
and embarrassment. My friends had been in the Airport lounge the whole time I
had been waiting for them in the receiving area. After a good laugh at the
situation, they arrived to pick me up at the motel. They were embarrassed and
stumbling all over themselves with conflicting accounts to why they had missed
the arrival. Each convinced in his own mind that the other was responsible.
On to the home of my host, Andrew
Otage. He wondered what had happened to me and again, a recital of conflicting
accounts from Robert and Jimmy [my reception group] in good humor. I had to
lean on Jimmy's wife for the accurate account. After a good visit and rest, at
the home of my host, I made my way to Jimmy's home via boda boda [125cc
motorbike and driver]. Jimmy proudly displayed his workshop in the market near
his home. Jimmy builds surge protected power cords and sells them to desperate
customers who have difficulty finding good power cords which will protect their
equipment from unstable City power. Computers are especially vulnerable.

Jimmy also engraves specially ordered wooden signs,
including the ones I requested for some of our donors.
The ability of this young Pastor to support his wife
and two children is directly due to the tools that he has received from donors.
A profoundly changed life because of a few tools that we in the West take for
granted.

We had a relaxing couple of days before picking up our
rented car. I avoided contact during price negotiations for the car because of
the difference that would have to be paid if the owner knew there was an
American involved. The presence of an American drives the price by 100 %. The car arrived but not in the best of
shape-----some issues with the battery, air conditioner malfunction, electric
window malfunction which proved to be unfortunate during our travels down long,
hot, dusty dirt roads------windows down for 35 miles back into the countryside
away from the nearest town. The car would prove to be a predictable problem in
our travels. We were left stranded with a dead battery at night on three
occasions, but managed to get on our way with the help of Jimmy's little
gasoline powered generator [which we dubbed "Jimmyrator"]. We eventually purchased a new battery which
solved our problem.
Our first venue was awaiting our arrival. On to
Nakawa.
November 2013------PART 2
Nakawa Village, Buyende District
0ne hundred miles into the countryside from Jinja
on the shores of Lake Kyoga
We found a motel in that small town
and settled in for five days. Unfortunately, I had some unwelcomed company
there----an active partnership of mosquitoes and bed bugs. It was several
restless nights, slapping at the side of my head every time a mosquito buzzed
my ear canal, and trying to find ways to scratch the bites in the center of my
back from the bed bugs. I kept reminding myself of how trivial my situation was compared to the
tribulations of St. Paul. It reminded me of the old Coasters record
lyric-------"you'll be scratch'n like a hound---the minute you start to
mess around with----poison i-vey-ee-ee-ee-ey" [you probably don't know
that one---1959]. I'm showing my age.

Opening day teaching on the Christian identity---- "you are
God's House and God's Temple, and the Holy Spirit lives in you. Let no man
defile your Temple with false teaching or doctrine". A stern warning to
those who would corrupt God's Temple.
1 Cor 3:16-18
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that
the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God
destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

Village music is lovelier than anything the West can produce!
Pastor Jimmy leading praise and
worship with the accompaniment of African instruments. Village Churches sing in
harmony. It is a gift from God. We do not allow western sound systems or
instruments in our meetings. We encourage God's people to preserve their unique
form of worship.
|
We strive to maintain the dignity of
village life. We portray the village Church as uniquely special to God. We
constantly point out their strengths. We persistently stress the power of God in the local Church, and
discourage receiving scoundrels claiming to have a special
"anointing" to heal the sick and pronounce "prosperity"
and-----always for a fee.
"Foot washing" has become
just another money making scheme in some of the large "churches" in
Kampala [the capital of Uganda]. Pastors will advertise "foot
washing" and encourage attendees to bring a "significant gift"
to the well advertized event. Nothing is sacred to these well known preachers.
A yearly event called "passover" is a "money making
machine". Christians from all over Uganda gather at Namboli Sports Arena
on New Year's evening [called "passover"]. Attendees bring the greatest
"gift" they can to purchase God's favor into the New Year. The
stadium is filled with gullible Christians every year. Emissaries from the
largest Churches in Uganda are dispatched into the villages to coerce even the
most modest village Churches to participate. Promises of "increase"
are lauded across the country. Large Churches in the other cities have entered
into competition with the Churches of Kampala and established their own
"passover". Competition, between the Churches of Kampala and the new
comers of the other notable cities, is fierce with each claiming THE unique
"anointing". We teach the village Church that "Christ our
Passover is sacrificed for us" and that Namboli [and the new comers] are
just a place you go to "pass-over" your wallet. Nothing is too
despicable for the Church money grubbers of Uganda. There is no shame and it is
all an exaggeration of the "health, wealth and prosperity" doctrine
imported by American evangelical preachers of great reputation. No need to
mention their names.

John 13:
12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken
his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have
done to you?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so
I am.
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your
feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do
as I have done to you.
16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not
greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do
them.

the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be
forgiven him.

On to Busia to visit Pastor David Cheni
November 2013---PART 3
Busia, on the eastern border with Kenya
home of Pastor David Cheni
Busia is reminiscent of a town right out of the American old west.
Roads lined with buckboards [eighteen wheelers] and prostitutes to accommodate
them all. Music and loud talk fill the streets till morning. Pastor Cheni
escorted us to safe and quiet quarters away from the festivities. That
following day he guided me to a local pharmacy where I purchased the medication
that caused my afore mentioned "company" to feel unwanted.

Kenya

in Uganda]
We spent the
first day teaching at the fellowship of Pastor Cheni. Our message----"the
Temple of God, which temple you are", dispelling the notion that the
building where we worship is "God's House".
The second day we spent at the fellowship of a friend of
Pastor Cheni. We were served a great dinner at that venue. Pastor Cheni spent
time with us explaining his efforts at evangelizing Muslims in his area. A
formidable task indeed given that 80% of that community are Muslim. He
approaches them with grace and sensitivity. Then a view of Pastor Cheni's
current effort at building a home for self and family------a few bricks at a
time, and steady progress.

it in a reservoir. I will look for a donor when I return to the U.S
An added note in closing this part of our report. Pastor Cheni's dear wife
provided all our meals while we worked in Busia, even to the point of
delivering meals to the guesthouse where we stayed. She, with the help of
another woman, carried our food on foot for about a quarter mile. What a
gracious gesture.
On to our next venue----Bukimbi
Village.
NOVEMBER 2013-----PART 4
On to Bukimbi Village, Namayingo District, near the border with Kenya
Three days of teaching in sound
doctrine. The village Church has been corrupted with many traditions not
supported in the New Testament. A strong mixture of Old Testament
"law" with "grace" has left the village Church in confusion
and vulnerable to local Pastors and "Bishops" who coerce God's people
into practices gainful only to those leaders, ie----promises of bumper crops
and prosperity if you give to the "anointed man of God", and threats
of crop and livestock failure if you fail to meet the demands of those
"anointed men of God". Many Christians are pressed to give land,
livestock and things vital to survival. We teach a powerful message on the
provision and love of a deeply caring God who gave his own son that we might
experience that love and daily provision and most importantly----eternal life.
The message is received with great relief and joy.

This dear saint was responsible for preparing
meals for all these people for three days. She never stopped smiling.
This woman had attended a previous
conference held in September. She walked many miles to receive a new Bible but
was bitterly disappointed that she did not receive a Bible at that conference.
This time she would not be dissuaded. She shook her finger into Pastor Jimmy's
face and said she was not leaving without her new Bible. What'a ya gonna do?

Fifty Bibles were distributed to Pastors and Elders whose own Bibles had
become dilapidated to the point that
they have become useless for teaching God's Word. This is the central purpose
of "Bibles for Uganda". Now we begin our closing ceremony at this
village and much prayer for "Bibles for Uganda".
On to Osia in the district of Tororo, The village home
of ------------------
Bita James
Oloo – Pastor Jimmy
Bita James Oloo – East Africa Coordinator – Bible’s for
Uganda
I am the son of the late Balam Owino
and Yakoba Anyango. Badama/Japadhola from Osia Village in the Rubongi
sub-county of the District of Tororo in Eastern Uganda
My late Father was a victim of
chronic asthma. He was sustained by medication all his life, but my mother was
a very strong village woman. Life was very difficult for them because of the
harshness of life in extreme poverty. I was born a healthy boy and named Bita
James Oloo but because of the difficult and perilous life in our village, I was
nick-named Lifuli, which means “misfortune” due to the extreme conditions
under which I was born. My mother birthed seven children. Birth control was not
available to our village women in those days. All they could afford was
local herbal remedies. The Birthing area for the women of our village was
in a banana patch behind our house, in an area where banana leaves were spread
upon the ground. This is where they took birthing women to deliver their
children. The Elder midwives delivered the babies. That is where Bita James
Oloo came into this world.
Both of my parents were peasant
farmers. They had a small piece of land which was passed down to my Father from
my Grandfather. They used the land to cultivate the food that we ate for
survival. We had meat and rice during the Christmas and Easter seasons. When I
became five years old I contracted Polio which caused paralysis to my left leg.
There was no medical assistance available to me. Over time, my left leg became
atrophied and about four inches shorter than the other. This added much sadness
to my parents.
After the initial distress of
surviving Polio, I was able to begin Primary School at a school about two
kilometers from my home. This was a school that my parents could afford. I was
always at the very top of my class. When I became ten years old, I learned how
to mold and fire earth-made bricks. I made bricks during weekends and holidays.
I was then able to sell bricks for enough money to pay for my school fees and
personal needs.
During this time in the late 80s, my
Father gave his life to the Lord Jesus Christ. My Mom soon followed, so we
began to attend and fellowship with other Christians. I vividly remember my
Mother singing and praising the Lord in song and in the traditional African
trill. This was the early formative years of my life.
Part II
My dad and mom
both became committed, born again Christians. I, and all my sisters and
brothers, gave our lives to Christ as well. Our entire family became followers
of Christ. My dad, who used to be a traditional witch healer, abandoned all
witchcraft practices and our family became one of the few Pentecostal Christian
families in our community with our father serving as a church elder. I
always considered this a great blessing, my family having Christ as lord and
master.
Although we lived in total poverty, our encouragement, hope, and trust
was in the lord always, and our family was very different from that time
forward. Dad always taught us about God.
I
lived in my small village hut which i built by myself. I also learned how to
repair watches, small radios, leaking vessels, storage containers for cooking
oil, and making traditional drums. This enabled me to support my family even
when dad lost his sight in 1991. He also fell and sustained a thigh fracture
when he was making his way from the house.
I managed to study up to
Secondary 3, but when I reached Secondary 4, I needed more concentration in
books, yet I also had to work hard to earn money, so I dropped out of school
and concentrated on my mechanical work
and ministering in church. I began by leading praise and worship, then I
was ordained as a youth pastor in our village church. I then developed a great
desire to teach and preach the truth with sound doctrine, boldness, and power
like the Apostles Paul, Peter, and others, and to help and encourage the poor.
This desire influenced me to travel to
the city to join, and minister under, a popular and well known ministry. I
thought that by being mentored by mighty
men of God, I would be ushered into my vision for ministry. I served
zealously, sacrificially, and with much obedience under different pastors,
apostles, and bishops around the Busoga, central and western region of Uganda.
A woman apostle took me to
work in her friend’s poultry and pig farm. I was promised 100,000 Schillings [50 dollars U.S.] per
month as my salary. I worked for 8months without receiving any wages. When i
told them that I could not continue with the job, they took me to some village
and rented a house, and a small hall, to be used as a church house. Then I
began a village church fellowship with their support. Within three years, the
church had grown to more than 150 members. The apostle told me that
“being a loved pastor in this church”, I was taking her glory from her. She
also wanted me to engage in manipulation. I refused to comply so they decided
to send me away. I left with nothing except my clothes and my bible. I
eventually ended up in Entebbe. That is where my path crossed with an American
missionary called Brother Danny.
Part III
The
lord blessed me with Regina as my wife after being joined in holy
matrimony before a multitude of
witnesses. Danny was among them. He was
seated as my Father. Our wedding was on
21st August, 2010. Now the lord has blessed us with twin babies, Dorothy and Burcham. I am called “Ssalongo”
in our native tongue, which means—”father of twins”, a very honored title in
Uganda. My wife is called “Nalongo”. The lord has helped us through many
challenges and victories. Against many odds, the Lord has caused us to prevail
mightily.
In ways that I cannot express, Danny has
trained, taught, and helped me establish myself into ministry according to my vision. I am now the
East Africa coordinator for a ministry
known as “Bibles for Uganda” under the New Testament Fellowship International,
a small union of dedicated Christians whose purpose is to provide new, quality
native language Bibles in the Ateso, Luganda, and Swahili languages, to pastors
and Church leaders who desperately need new Bibles. As our missions expand to
include Northern Uganda and Western Uganda,
our Bible inventory will grow to include the languages of Luo and Acholi
in the North, and Lunyankole in the West. Other translations will follow as the
need develops. Along with those Bibles, I teach sound doctrine accompanied by
my spiritual son called Mukisa Joshua. This is the most unique ministry I know
of coming out of the U.S. There is none other like it. No missionary
organization I know of will go where we go on the budget that we have. Our
donors can be confident that their donation is going directly to the village.
Every schilling is carefully guarded.
I
now see my dream coming to pass, and my desire coming to fruition day by day. I
travel to different villages with Pastor
Mukisa Joshua. We are teaching pastors and church leaders with boldness and
power. We teach the truth of God’s Word, and warn the Church against all sorts
of false teachings and heresy,
encouraging them in the lord, and helping poor pastors and leaders whose
own Bibles are old and dilapidated. They cannot afford to buy new ones.
We travel to a new village every
month. Danny travels to Uganda yearly to
join us in this effort. He is the one who raises funds for all the Bibles and
transportation expenses for our missions . His own travel expenses are funded
by he and his wife. It costs about 1.6
million USh [700 U.S. dollars] per month to fund “Bibles for Uganda”. He has
helped the poor through the heart felt
contributions of our donors from the U.S. and U.K. Many other projects have sprung up spontaneously, like building a house for a poor widow with
five orphan children in Bukedea District, purchasing a cow
and goats for village people. One of our faithful donors [Janet Burcham
of North Carolina] gave funds to purchase more than 2000 tree seedlings to deforested villages in Tororo District.
Danny and wife Lynette, along with Ronald and Catherine Shelton of North
Carolina U.S.A., have helped me established a bread business and electronic
work shop in Entebbe. I sell electronic parts and appliances and do the repairs.
My life has dramatically changed over
these past few years. I hope you have enjoyed my story. It is a story repeated
daily throughout the earth. A story of God’s love for his people.
To God be the glory amen. Pr Bita

Osia, Tororo District, Eastern Uganda
Part 5
Osia is the birthplace and village home of Pastor Bita
James Oloo, East Africa coordinator for Bibles for Uganda. He is well known,
loved, and respected as "Pastor
Jimmy". He organizes one village mission per month [now quarterly]-----a new location each
month/quarter. He speaks four languages fluently----English, Jap, Luganda, and Swahili.

After
strong teaching on "Church identity", and maintaining that identity,
we began the Bible drive with the distribution of twenty Bibles. |

The names of recipients to receive Bibles are determined by their Pastors. The recipients
must meet certain criteria to receive Bibles, ie---able to read and speak the
language, and actively involved in village ministry.

HIGH TECH VILLAGE CINEMA |
Jimmy's family gathered for the "Bibles for
Uganda" Power Point presentation prepared especially for them. Many do not
understand exactly how Jimmy comes by the money that funds monthly missions and
the distribution of so many costly Native language Bibles. This presentation
takes them from A to Z, beginning with our fund raising efforts in the U.S.,
monthly transfer of funds via "moneygram", purchase of Bibles in
Kampala, organization of monthly
missions, travel expenses, and hosting in the villages. The Power Point
features very dramatic special effects that have not been seen before in this
village. There was much celebration and understanding following the
presentation.

BACK TO-------
"CIVILIZATION???"
A NOTE FROM JIMMY
Thanks to God so much for the progress and every
provisions towards
our ministry NTFI (BFU).
Through out the
year we managed to hold monthly village pastors and
elders teaching conferences succefuly by the suport of
our donors
through our dad and teacher Danny McDowell. We gave out more than 30 new native bibles in every
conference, every month.
We had several
year of being maniplated,theft by money
minded
pastors,and all kind of disapointments Until the birth
of BFU.A clear
vission/plan/direction from God on how to run our
ministry.This God
given vission came with its own unique provision,'' Monthy
bibles and
travel funds''All comming from men and women of God
whom gives the
burden to suport NTFI BFU.
In our
November/December missions where Danny joined us, as we windup the year, It was
a real blessing and great impact to the village pastors,church
elders,christian,my family in Entebbe and in the
village,my whole clan
and entire home village.
All the village
pastors/elders from every village we held our monthly
teaching conferences/bible drive were so eager to meet
any of the
white men through whom the lord has cosinderd to open
their
understanding of the truth of his word
and to give them freely the
most valuable gift(New leather ziper
cover native bibles).They all
could not believe to see a muzungu(white
man) tressing his way to the
remotest bushy villages and bearing
their village life standerd for
their sake.Something which has never
seen before.
It is unbelieveble for them also to see how Me
and Josua,their fellow
Ugandan poor pastors like them are
sacrificialy considerd to suport
them. What even their own wealth bishops
will never do for them.
To talk about my friends in Entebbe,due to how
far the lord has
brought me and changed my standard of
living, every one have come to
believe that God can turn a most
useless/poorest man into a great
blessing to others.
In my home village,every one have come to love
the God of my father's
family who turned the most poorest and
hopeless family of Balam Owino
into a great light and blessing to the
whole clan, village and even the
neibouring villages. Through pr Jimmy,the village have got many
help which even the governmet or big Churches have never give to them.
I therefore extend my special
apriciation to all of you (our donors)
for all your suport towards our
ministry,my busness,family and every
special suport. You are the reason for every success.
May God reward you mightly.
Yours in Christ Pr Jimmy

We also appreciate
funds dedicated to travel expenses for our missionaries, food for village
conferences, or anything that is in your heart. All funds will be specifically
directed according to your expressed wish. We do not use donor funds for
anything other than that which the donor intends. Every person involved in
Bibles for Uganda is a volunteer. There are no salaries, maintenance, or
operating expenses taken from donor funds. Our native missionaries are self
supporting men who take time quarterly to carry out their Commission to take
the Gospel into the highways and byways and compel all men to follow Christ,
and to distribute as many native language Bibles as we possibly can. We focus
on people involved in ministry to villages in remote locations. Danny
