President Ted Wilson meets with president of Uganda Yoel Museveni in Kampala

Meeting the President
A short time later, President Museveni welcomed us to State House Uganda and immediately began to ply Pastor Wilson with questions about why Adventists keep the Sabbath on Saturday. Pastor Wilson gave a short Bible study about the Sabbath and, later in the friendly conversation, appealed for the country to abolish Saturday exams for Adventist students. To his delight, President Museveni agreed to look into the matter.
Pastor Wilson presented the engraved pen to President Museveni and suggested that he could use it to sign important documents or, more important, to underline verses in the Bible.
Then he handed over the Bible, “Steps to Christ,” and “Help in Daily Living.” He encouraged the president to read all three.
President Museveni, smiling, raised the Bible for the guests to see. After that, he held up “Steps to Christ” and “Help in Daily Living.” His official photographer and a church photographer snapped photos of the president holding the books.
That evening, I e-mailed the photos to my father.
“You won’t believe what happened today,” I said in a Skype call. “The Bible and ‘Steps to Christ’ that you insisted I buy are now in the home of Uganda’s president. Thank you for listening to the promptings of the Holy Spirit.”
Next week, I will leave for a five-week trip to South America and Europe. My suitcase will contain a brand-new Bible and several more copies of “Steps to Christ.”
