We love it when our friends are able to connect with our amazing partners around the world and, this month, Links’ partners Wellspring, led by Eve Wanjala in Uganda, received a visit from some of our friends to bless and support them in the amazing work that they do!
The team was led by Clare and Jim McKnight, together with members of Arun Church (including our own Carolina Gisbey!) and some of their wider connections. Alongside local outreach initiatives and practical displays of God’s love, to both the team and the community around Wellspring, the team from the UK also rolled their sleeves up and got their hands dirty painting and decorating the Wellspring Centre itself! For any of you who have journeyed with us in Links over the years, more likely than not you will have heard us speak about the amazing work of Wellspring! Led by Eve Wanjala, Wellspring consists of a vibrant church, clinic, school, business projects and medical centre which is currently being developed. It is so inspiring to see what God has done through this great organisation, and we are excited to see all that is being developed under Eve’s leadership.

On August 16th, a horrifying incident unfolded in Jaranwala, Pakistan. Christians living in the area became the target of an attack following an unfounded accusation against two young believers of Quran descent. The scale and quick escalation of the attack was shocking with over 24 churches vandalised and burned, and over 300 homes destroyed; even graves were desecrated.
