Ugandan Success Story. Trip 42 Update 3

Beatrice, mother of 6 including 4 young ones, homeless, abandoned by her husband for a girl in her teens, no skills or education, no English, in shock she stared at the floor for days. That was the low point 10 years ago that Beatrice worked from and was raised up. Beatrice just moved into a brick house that she built on land she bought from working at CRM for 10 years as the main cook and matron, saving diligently. She is a Believer, joyful hard worker, great cook, loves to learn new recipes, and is a loving pleasant person. Beatrice loves MSM visitors…We have to go find her when we leave from a trip, to say goodbye, because she will be crying somewhere off by herself.

Beatrice’s New House

Her husband in 2014, Moses Chukka, was one of the volunteer workers that Mission Servants Ministries (MSM) began working with in the early days of Child Redeemed Mission Home (CRM), then called Stream of Hope Home (SOH). He and his family were living so poorly while he was working to serve SOH and the 46 kids there, that I suggested they move into SOH. I didn’t dream that he had a teenaged girlfriend in the community and would abandon his family almost immediately.

We didn’t know Beatrice and it was difficult to communicate but it was decided that we would love and lift her up, welcome her children to the home, teach her how to be a cook and matron, and let Jesus heal her. Over time the cook and matrons that she assisted left and Beatrice assumed sole responsibility and does really well. Her children are believers, grateful, and love school. One of the older ones is married and the youngest is in grade 5, while two others are in High School.

In the African culture, she was a throw away. Her children were essentially unsupported orphans. Not in the eyes of Jesus and his children at CRM, she is family, a valuable CRM staff member, and a beautiful workpiece of Christ. Praise Him!

Trip 42 to Uganda Update 1

Greg and Scott arrived at Child Redeemed Mission Home (CRM) on Sunday, joined the church service there at Bwase Redeemed Church (BRC), and Scott gave a message. They had the privilege of witnessing God’s awesome grace as a Chief Witch named Halid in the area, professed faith in Jesus Christ. What a joyful miracle to see unfold. Praise God!

From Pastor Emma……This man has been a chief magician in Balawoli sub county but on Sunday he came to our church and confessed our Lord Jesus Christ as his Lord and savior. He went ahead and set fire on his shrines.
Where he is standing were the burnt shrines.
Now he is asking God to strengthen him in salvation, give him a new job, and to heal him from diabetes.
Please join me in prayer as we pray for him.
Am so much encouraged in the Lord for his salvation.

Trip to Uganda. MSM #42

Tomorrow, 9 August, Greg and Scott leave for a week in Uganda to visit the Mission Servants Ministry supported ministries and organizations near Kamuli, Uganda….Child Redeemed Mission Home (CRM), Promise Primary School (PPS), Rock View Primary School (RVPS) as well as other projects, organizations, and initiatives that are being served to honor Christ.

I will post and update regularly during this trip but in summary, improving education for the CRM kids, the 900 children at PPS and RVPS, and the many early class children in the community of Bwase (Surrounding the CRM Home). Among several items, a new Kitchen project will break ground at RVPS and playgrounds improved, a back-up power system repaired at PPS, a home school program for challenged CRM learners will be evaluated, and a proposed new early education school is being discussed with the Bwase community. Education is the key to a positive future, especially with a healthy, nurturing, and Christian foundation.

Please pray for the protection and guidance of Greg and Scott and the meetings to be held this coming week.

Spiritual Fruit in Uganda.

The Missionary Nature of Mission Servants Ministry

Here is an awesome story, the kind of story that reminds me of the 1st Century Churches. Spirit driven people begin working in a community to solve basic problems, feed and safeguard orphans, bring medical assistance, facilitate education, provide clean water, fill the air with children’s sounds of joy and hope, and valuing the old and homeless. A church begins to grow to thank God for His grace and blessings and sparking a desire to learn and share the good news. The lost are saved, seeing the love of Christ shared in a practical and scriptural way, and hope and gratitude is predominant. The church matures and is Holy Spirit compelled to reach out to the lost and suffering in a powerful and loving way that they never would have dreamed before. The resulting fruit is amazing.

The Bwase Redeemed Church (BRC) arose from within the Child Redeemed Mission (CRM) Home in Uganda as a means to feed the children spiritually and involve the community in a place to worship and know Christ Jesus. The church has bloomed over the recent years and initiated partnership projects with Mission Servants Ministry (MSM) to serve the poor, sick, and elderly in the community. Medical clinics, widows homes, and constant acts of compassion are some loving things happening in the BRC.

A few weeks ago the BRC without input or assistance from MSM and in obedience to a call by the Holy Spirit, organized a crusade, outreach, and Bible study in a predominantly Muslim community called Kisege, Uganda about 25 km away. The crusade ended up expanding to 5 days due to passionate response. This was very exciting for the BRC members. The Kisege Redeemed Church (KRC) was planted.

Here Pastor Emma of BRC and Director of CRM Home explains…..Monica, one of our church members together with her husband invited us to preach the Gospel to her parents who live in this community called Kisege. They told us about their community and the much need for the gospel. The majority of the community members believe in superstition and they have a big tree in which they believe there is a spirit governing the community so they sacrifice goats, offer money, clothes, and other gifts to that so called god under the tree! They also have a big number of Muslims with a big mosque. When I heard about all that I felt like an arrow in my heart, the Holy Spirit convicted and stirred up my spirit restlessly to lead a team to preach the Gospel to the entire community. I shared it with the church and the church welcomed it with much support financially including food and donated clothes, and a team of about 40 people went with me and Peter (another Pastor) to preach the Gospel both door to door and crusade for five days from 23-27/May/2023. We went to Kisege, Kamuli district to preach the gospel in a community with much need for the Gospel. It is a Muslim and superstition based community with a community shrine and no born-again church around. A number of people confessed Christ as their lord and savior including an Anglican Church priest. We baptized them and planted a church in that community. We are so grateful to the Lord for allowing it to happen. About 50 people came to Christ. We ordained Ronnie (Young leader from BRC) to take care of that new church. Yesterday was the second Sunday service and about 5 more people also joined the new church. I mean the number of members is increasing we thank God for that and ask God to strengthen them in Christ. One of the new believers allowed us to begin fellowshipping from her home. We give God the glory.

Please pray for the Kisege Redeemed Church and new Christians.
