Uganda Mission Trip

 

Pastors Mark Mahserjian-Smith, Dan McDowell and Sam Geiger will be leading a team from GraceCrossing Community Church (Phoenixville) on a mission trip to Uganda this July. Originally, this trip was to take place in 2020, but it was delayed due to COVID. The three of them will be preaching in many small communities and providing pastoral training. Sadly, the prosperity gospel has become a major challenge for pastoral leaders. In the midst of so much poverty it is easy to understand its appeal. It's an exciting opportunity to be with Ugandan pastors who have asked us to come and help address this along with working on a construction project.
