Kamwenge Conference 2022-02-15 & 16

REPORT ON 15/16 FEB KAMWENGYE CONFERENCE BY THE WAY THE TRUTH AND LIFE SERVICES FOUNDATION.

We were pleased as an organization to be invited by Kamwengye elders to hold conference that would much be centered to knowing more about urantia book. We prepared fully as a team of three members with printing urantia papers that would help in teachings, Brother Paul helped us with presentations about the life teachings of Jesus as He presented them on earth.

Everyone was happy and were welcomed on 15^th in morning and the conference kick started with introduction from all members that were around ,it was first day were 130 people were in attendance ,this was due to mass mobilization by our leaders in the district.

After introduction ,the programmer welcomed Innocent to teach ,He began by distributing the papers and requested members to write what they expected from the teachers and urantia book, Members in attendance wrote different answers .mostly people wrote how they expected allowances which confused Innocent and asked leaders if they had promised money to people, others wrote that they expected to be converted in the urantia religion, a one pastor in the congregation wrote ,that he came to understand why urantia book differs with bible, others wrote that they expected teachers to pray them and get prosperity in whatever they do-so they expected miracles.

Innocent started by introducing urantia book to the people where he said urantia means Earth and described people as loved children of God ,that they are youngest brothers of Jesus, he continued to mention that Jesus lived on earth before we existed, that he put on fresh, he had a family and disciples. That it’s through Him God showed the love he has for mankind.

He told them how urantia book has four parts that is part 1, UP TO PART 1V he said that it would be good and wise to start with part IV for one to understand the urantia book. Part IV presents teachings of Jesus from paper 120 to paper 196. He said reading urantia book has helped him in how he actually approaches some aspects of life, he says he used to judge some religions but the urantia book challenged him. He said that the urantia book is a uniting factor to all religions since God loves his people regardless of where they belong. He ended by teaching on paper 120 the bestowal of Michael.

He later welcomed Mrs. Margaret. She started by thanking women that come to attend that it showed determination of ladies in doing God’s work which used not to be the case in early days. She requested members to welcome urantia book and it should become their guidance as they live on urantia. She gave her testimony that she believed God, she has been exceling most of the times and God has been God to her family.

Then members were granted time to rest and have lunch.

Innocent opened the after-lunch session by welcoming members from lunch ,he started by asking members what they had learnt so far and most people gave what they think about the book being introduced to them. He later welcomed James the leader of Kamwengye.

He thanked members who had fulfilled their invitations and told them to listen to what will be taught to them and welcome the urantia book, James gave out the printed papers to individuals to follow while leaders are teaching.

Mrs.Margeret prayed and thanked God that had led to successful first day of conference.

Second day was started by people having breakfast in the morning that followed with presentations with Innocent and he went on to explain each slide for people to understand in the local language this went up to midday and he requested people to distribute themselves in group of ten to study in the group and come up with question for easy discussions. He told members that they will be joined by friends on zoom in the afternoon to answer some of the questions.

Later in the afternoon Paul and Monica joined through zoom and taught about our loving Father God and answered some questions about love that was asked by some individuals.

Then Innocent answered the rest of questions as he got answers from Sister Monica.

Ten groups were formed for weekly fellowship. Innocent and Margaret visited individual homes after the second day session to encourage members where the fellowships will be held. At least people that attended went knowing one or more things about urantia.
