A mission team in northern Uganda recently sat for “language proficiency evaluations” – BUT before they could be tested, they had to find someone to teach them Lugbara, the heart language of their People Group – THEN they had to train evaluators to determine if they were truly learning! On a scale of Novice, Intermediate, Advanced, Superior and Distinguished (each with low, medium and high ratings) their goal is “Advance Low which indicates we can do most job related tasks like teaching, praying, and leading discussion groups in Lugbara.” Praise God that all team members are learning as you pray for continued learning as all have not met their goal as they seek to serve as our Father’s Heart, Hands and Voice among a People Group in need of His Good News. (To hear a bit from the LUGBARA New Testament, click the speaker symbol beside the word ‘Lugbara” at http://www.joshuaproject.net/languages.php?rol3=lgg.)
