Earlier this month our team met with staff members Faustino Ringe and Jakisa Ufoyrwoth in far northwest Uganda just this side of the Congo border. It was an exciting trip!

Resurrection and the Coming Kingdom
The Resurrection of Jesus and Life after Death Intro: Easter is the ancient celebration of an empty tomb in Jerusalem. The two angels standing outside the tomb declared to the women “why do you seek the living among the dead?
