Thank you so much to all who are supporting DJJ through your prayers and donations. God is
enabling us to create disciples around the world. It is thrilling. Our discipleship journeys have been
downloaded in 95 countries so far! The most recent is Samoa, a Polynesian island country.
Last fall, we completed a revision of our Partnership Training, which includes training to appoint
Ambassadors. Ambassadors are trainers authorized to train our material. Altogether in 2020, our team
held 17 Partnership Events
One of the events was a digital training I led last fall with people from 23 countries participating,
including Nicaragua, Cameroon, Singapore, Barbados, and so on. We made excellent contacts in
several countries and are doing follow-up to help them disciple their nations
Earlier this month, we held an online "reunion" with several who had attended. David Ngwa from
Cameroon reported that he had started a DJJ WhatsApp group with over 100 being discipled through
it. He also has 30 people meeting online, and he is mentoring other pastors to use the DJJ lessons.
One of them, a pastor, preached our first lesson, "Jesus' Journey to the Cross," to his church. One man
was sobbing and committed his life to Christ that day!
Sun-Yee Ho (pictured below) shared how he uses the discipleship journeys where he lives in Singapore
and in The Philippines, where he has significant contacts. One group comprises military and police
leaders, including a 3 star general and three 2 star generals in the Armed Forces of the Philippines and
Philippine National Police. He is also encouraging a Pastor with the Pamilya Muna Pilipinas (Family
First Philippines) to consider doing the DJJ lessons with his outreach group of more than 40 rural
pastors in the Philippines. Glory to God! He is doing great things!

Thank God for these 2020 Accomplishments!
In January 2020, Dr. Mark Williams came to Uganda, and
I attended the Partnership Training held near Entebbe.
There I met and now work with the Uganda Regional
Coordinator, Godfrey Kakembo, as an Ambassador.
Recently, I translated New Testament Quarter 1 into
Lusoga and Ateso. I will also be translating into Acholi
and Langi this year.
My name is Charles Peter Okiror, from Soroti City
in Eastern Uganda. I am the Resident Pastor for
Divine Inspiration International Ministry-Uganda.
I have been in full-time ministry since January
2012 and have held youth seminars, conferences,
crusades, and leadership seminars.
I found Discipleship Journeys with Jesus on the
internet while searching for easy-to-use materials
for discipleship in September 2019.
1. Provision of a financial sponsor of the additional Lusoga and Ateso
Quarters translations, plus Partnership materials.
2. Open doors for teaching and preaching.
3. Open doors for new discipleship groups.
4. Thank God for the Lusoga translation of New Testament Quarter 1
now available to download on the DJJ website.
5. Thank God for the completion of Ateso that will be on the website
later this month.
Prayers for Uganda

Ministry Value Number Four: Spirit and Truth
So far, we have introduced you to:• Value One: Strategic Partnerships.
We provide a resource for strategic partners to multiply disciples. • Value Two: Ministry to the most spiritually needy.
We focus on providing free digital materials where they are most needed. • Value Three: Excellence.
We seek to be the best we can and do the best we can for the Lord Jesus.
Now let's focus on:• Value Four: Spirit and Truth.
We minister in the power of the Spirit and faithfulness to the teachings of Scripture.
What this means: Jesus said, “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24) We need both the power of the Holy Spirit and the teaching of the Holy Bible. Without either, we are severely disadvantaged.
We need the SPIRIT: “'Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the LORD of hosts.” (Zechariah 4:6b) We ask for and welcome the work of the Spirit in people's lives and our ministry!
We need the TRUTH: "All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work." (2 Timothy 3:16 NLT)
Our lessons are based on a personal study of the Scriptures. Also, we provide memory verses and "Checkpoints on Your Journey" at the end of each journey to help the disciple understand related biblical teaching.
When the Bible speaks to an issue, we accept what it says and refuse to deviate. When it does not speak, we look for biblical principles to guide us.
» Pray for the completion of many ongoing projects, including the revision and reformatting
of New Testament Quarter 2, scheduled for release by the end of the month.
» Thank God for the faithfulness of our DJJ donors.
» Thank God for the people in 95 countries that have downloaded the materials!
» Pray for upcoming Online Partnership Training.
» Pray for wisdom to know how to hold 2021 Partnership Trainings and meet potential staff
around the world when we are not able to travel due to the pandemic.
» Thank God for the new Administrative Assistants for our Kenya and Uganda Regional
Coordinators.
» Pray for translations in various phases of development. For the translators, for the graphic
designers, and editors.
» Thank God for Dr. Mark's participation in an upcoming online discipleship conference in
Barbados.
