I've updated the photos

I hope this doesn't get confusing for you, but it's much easier for me to upload photos only onto facebook and not on both!

There are three albums now, and you will need to type different addresses for them.

The first is

The second is

The third is

By they way, we are getting used to having titles here! Mari is usually Mama Mari, Sister Mari or Auntie Mari, and I am somewhere between Sister Beki, Teacher Beki and Madam Beki at school! haha

From the end of the earth to the ends of the earth...

Community Church Sheppey is a Pentecostal church on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent, and is working through the Christian organisation Connections in partnership with a church in Bweyogerere in the suburbs of Kampala. This church oversees a number of small village churches scattered around Uganda, and through it CCS has donated money and built friendships with many churches in this network, as well as another church outside this network (led by Pastor James Akolo, who was studying in the UK in 2005 and met CCS at a Christian conference).

This relationship was established when a member of CCS visited Uganda in 2001 and brought back reports of poverty and church activity in some of these places. Since this time money has been donated to build brick church buildings for four churches, support Pastors, pay for building work and equipment for schools as well as sponsorship of teachers and orphans at two of these schools. A close relationship has been established between the leaders of CCS, Connections and the Ugandan churches and the members of the churches are also involved in correspondence and annual visits to Uganda.

This Blogspot is intended to provide information and updated stories about the churches we support in Uganda and our own church, and enable you to get to know the individuals and communities you have supported. A partnership that is just about giving money doesn't really acheive anything in the long run. What is incredible about this partnership is that the friendships that have built up through regular visits and contact mean that we are both having an impact on eachother. Encouraging eachother in our faith and sharing the sense of God's purpose for our lives, we are working together for the good of our communities.

Villages all over Uganda will never be the same again because of Sheppey. Sheppey will never be the same again because of Uganda. God is really up to something.
