"Students Return and Hot Topics Are Relationships and Careers At Kingdom View"

19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19

 

 

Greetings! Mark and I have always focused through the years in ministry on making impactful disciples and multiplication. With students back at UCU, we kicked off Relationship Forum with Jesse and Pamela Mugero leading every second Saturday of the month at Kingdom View. The purpose of the forum is for students to be able to ask questions in a safe environment and find out what ladies and gentlemen are looking for in godly relationships.  God wants to bless relationships and provides guidelines.  Jesse is an author and lawyer who was the first president of UCU Honours College to work with the Rock Kingdom Limited ministry. He was mentored by us and participated in discipleship activities.    He works as a human rights lawyer. Recently he published a book, Justice Unlimited which covers the topic of justice from God’s perspective and is very thorough from a legal perspective. It sets the tone for how to combine faith and career in the field of law. Highly recommended especially for lawyers struggling with facing corruption.   Pamela his wife is also an author and business professional.  Her book Running In Heels shares her story of being a woman in corporate Africa and the challenges of holding true to her Christian faith and values. The book is full of interesting stories and hard to stop reading once you start.   Pamela and Jesse learned a lot about each other prior to marriage by reading each other’s books and also observing each other at their church, Worship Harvest Ministries in Kira. They have a daughter named Charis and are happy to share about being new parents. Both of them love mentoring and are available to answer student's questions.                                     Mark and Margaret continue to use WhatsApp, Zello and Zoom as we mentor and encourage current and past students. Margaret was asked to do a Zoom Call for Honours College with around 50 students.  Christopher, the manager of Kingdom View in Uganda and Margaret have done joint presentations to encourage students to prepare for their future careers. Both shared success stories of former graduates who landed jobs even during Covid. As things open up we are excited to see the new things the Lord is doing at Kingdom View.   Gratefully,   Mark and Margaret Noblin The Rock Outreach, Inc. Dallas, Texas www.rockoutreach.org

"Merry Christmas From Uganda"

    

Greetings!

Abiding faith and trust in God are central themes of the Christmas story, just as they have been guiding lights to The Rock’s ministry through the years.

Mary believed “that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished” in the promise she would give birth to the Savior of the world.  (Luke 1:45)

Joseph was ready to move on from a pregnant Mary when an angel visited him in a dream. The angel told him the child Mary carried was conceived by the Holy Spirit and would be the Messiah. “When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.” (Matthew 1:24)

Wise men in faith followed a star to find Jesus. “Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, ‘Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.’" (Matthew 2:1-3)

At The Rock, Jesus is our star. We follow and know our final destination in heaven, but we often don’t know the points in between. Who could have anticipated COVID and its universal impact? As the Ugandan university we minister to only reopened in November, who knows what new opportunities the Lord will introduce?

After 19 years of serving Uganda, we are excited this year to be spending our first Christmas there with our African friends and spiritual children. We are hopeful God will present fresh ways to “go and make disciples.” (Mathew 28:19)

We choose to trust God and delight in the many blessings He has provided. He warned Believers we will have trouble but promised through Jesus we will “overcome” (John 16:33) and be “more than conquerors.” (Romans 8:37)

Our Christmas wish for each of you is that you may count your blessings as overcomers and conquerors in Jesus. And we count each of you as blessings to us.

Gratefully,
