Dr John R Moore, Consultant Paediatrician, Leicester, United Kingdom. 1937 - 2013 The Sycamore Trust set up by Dr John and Helen Moore is very pleased to be able to support Teach Men to Fish to enable Patrick Latulo to build the new Outpatient Surgical Facility. In 1980 he visited Uganda for the first time as part of a team of doctors helping in Kampala setting up the Makerere University medical school and was teaching students. He then returned twice more over the next 10 years helping the students pass their exams, as well as arranging training visits for the Ugandan doctors to visit the UK to gain valuable skills. After retirement in 1997 he went back to Uganda most years for several weeks until 2007. He worked in Mityana, Jinja and community clinics teaching and supporting the local medical teams.

I just wanted to remind myself of one of the biggest rainstorm challenges we faced at the very beginning of this project. All the column pad trenches got flooded and we had to empty everything by hand with buckets 🪣 to get them dry and keep going. These young men and women endured the sticky mud on their boots, all of us getting wet and muddy. It just built our teamwork spirit strong and we did it. For in Proverbs 22:29 it says, skilled workers prepare and do the hard stuff first with a lot of endurances, but in the long run, gain a good reputation that is admired by many and brings God's glory to light. We're so proud of these young men and women. Patrick Lutalo.

Patrick shares, "I am grateful to the Lord for a safe return to the USA after my trip to Uganda for the continuing construction of the Outpatient Minor Surgery Center in the Diocese of Mityana. We are so grateful for the work done by all the apprentices and the community support for this project." We join Patrick in praise to God!

I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation before the Almighty for making that site meeting to happen. It opened up people’s hearts and commitment towards God’s great commission to serve his people in this part of the world and the Diocese in general as intended. On behalf of our organization and the young men and women of Namukozi Integrated Youth Development Group apprentices, we would like to express our sincere appreciation to all the participants and supporters in various ways that made this happen. In his remarks, the Bishop’s representative and the new head leader of the Diocese Health concerns the Rev. Benon Tebasoboke made an assurance that they are in control of every pre-planning procedure to make sure everything comes to life to fulfill the intended vision and goals of the facility to usher in God’s glory. He further assured the meeting that they will be registering with Uganda Protestant Medical Bureau and constitute the governing board for the facility.

We are pleased to let you know of some important advances in our work here in Myanzi with the apprentices as we work on the Outpatient Clinic. As shown in the photos, we now have electricity and water available at our site. I am also grateful to have had a meeting with some of the faculty of the School of Medicine at Uganda Christian University to share our plans for the Clinic and to get their input on potential collaborations in the future. The meeting was also attended by clergy from the Diocese of Mityana. On February 9 some of the Medical faculty will come to Myanzi to look over the project in order to gain a better understanding of possible ways we can collaborate.
