Leland Shores, a dear friend of ours died in Uganda about 12 hrs ago. Supposedly he went to hospital with pneumonia, and they said he had tuberculosis. His organs shut down and he died shortly after. We rcvd a call an hour ago. His wife's name is Carol. They had been married two years. He was with Andrew Womack ministries in Uganda and SLC supported his mission. He encouraged us so much as we started the church and he poured into our leadership, spoke at our men's breakfast and gave the mssg at our Christmas service. Leland was at our wedding and i still remember his call from africa 48 hrs bf graysons brain surgery to tell me he was going to be alright bc thousands of ugandans were lifting him up in prayer as we spoke. He and Carol had plans to be here in the usa tomorrow and at our church on the 17th. His message was "unconditional love" and "discipleship." The Ugandan people are praying for him to be raised from the dead.
Let's join them in prayer.

I just learned about this great man on Andrew Wommack Ministries. What a tragic loss. It's not easy to understand this kind of thing. But our loss is Heaven's gain. I pray for his family's recompense for what they have experienced. God is so faithful and will turn everything for our good.
