 Esther
Kintu
During
2003-04, Esther (nee Nabiryo) came to work at Pier Avenue Baptist Church, as a
Volunteer Youth and Children’s worker. She was giving a year of her
life to working with us here in the UK, through an organisation called 'Careforce'.
Esther is from Jinja, the second largest town in Uganda, on the shores
of Lake Victoria. During her year with us, we got to know a lot
about her country, and this culminated in a ‘Uganda Day’ in July 2004,
when we ate Ugandan food, sang Ugandan worship songs, and celebrated
African style!
Esther returned to her home in August 2004, but the link
has continued. Several people from our Church visited Jinja for Esther’s
wedding to Michael Kintu, in February 2005, and we hope that we will be
able to go on supporting Esther and Michael in their work for the Lord in
years to come. Michael works for an American charity called ‘World
Vision’ and Esther is currently setting up a Christian youth
organisation, like Careforce in
Uganda. Their Home Church is ‘Jinja
Gateway Miracle Center’.
