My friend in Uganda, Simon Peter Waako, Is working on his ordination plans set for June. The culture is quite different in Uganda and so instead of the church supporting the ordination celebration and taking care of paying for things, he has to pay for all of it, and it is all expected. Below is a budgeted list of items that are expected at his ordination.
I don't expect anyone to give toward this endeavor as, to us, this seems like things that are either unnecessary or should be taken care of by the congregation, but that is the culture and way of doing things there in Uganda. If you feel moved and compelled to do so, please reply.
Peace be with you all!
