Today I am celebrating God’s goodness in the protection He gave my wife this past Tuesday. It was a near-deadly road accident again.

We had just returned from wonderful ministry abroad. We were in Kenya with Maranatha Faith Assemblies Church in Migori-Kenya doing ministry together. This is a rare opportunity because my wife is an employee of the Government of Uganda under the ministry of Tourism. She is the Principal Instructor in the Hotel and Tourism Training Institute in charge Academic and administration.

We had hardly rested before she saw me off for another seminar with Eagles Wings Church International Mbale.

I was just about to be picked for session from Hotel Eldima where I was residing, whem my phone rang. The call was from a good Samaritan named Topista. She notified me that my wife was involved in a road accident involving two motorcycle taxis, popularly known here as Boda Bodas. I was disrupted but calm.

I called my wife’s boss who rushed to the scene, picked her up and rushed her to a hospital. A number of scans were conducted and there no serious effects apart from the knee cap. She is unable to walk and is having a bed rest at home.

The Boda Boda cyclists collided in the middle of the highway causing her to fall off. Thank God the motorist following them was at a considerable distance and was able to stop in time. Otherwise, it would have been a disaster. We thank God for His grace!

We do not have a vehicle now, yet we need one urgently. Last year in August, I crashed in my Toyota Coarsa when I was hit from behind. I sold that vehicle for almost scrap.< ?p>

Two months ago, my Suzuki Escudo suffered a shot circuit and the engine was partly gutted by fire.

It has been tough time for me without a vehicle: It is dangerous and expensive especially when it comes to special hires while taking children to school. However, the Suzuki was taken to Kampala to specialist in Suzuki Engines. He has able to identify the problem. The total repairs, including wiring, panel beating and spaying in UGX, 3,000,000 (USD890) or GBP650). I know the mechanic and a principled Christian who is able to do a good job in the car

Please, pray with us for that provision as we need the car for ministry and domestic purposes.

I will away from tomorrow, First in Kampala, then Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi. I am trying to set up a basic Bible and Ministry training program for church leaders in Burundi and DR Congo. I need your prayer support – for safety mainly.

I will be done with the international commitments on 3rd October 2017. God has already provided the fare I need. My prayer is for the repair of the vehicle.

Thank you,
Isaac Peter Oyako
