Projects we are working on at Mission Servants Ministries

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.

Current State of MSM Ministries, 2024. (Hint…awesome)

Trips to visit the MSM sponsored ministries and projects in Kenya and Uganda were made by two teams in January and February. In summary the excellent state of things at The Lord’s Servants Home, Bridgeway Hope Academy, Community projects and church in Lyavo, (Kenya), Teso Evangelism support ministry (Kenya), Child Redeemed Mission Home, Promise Primary School, Rock View Primary School, and the Community projects and church in Bwase (Uganda) were witnessed. A report in 17 minute video format follows. All Praise and Glory to God.

Trip 38 to Uganda and Back

We have returned home from a great trip to the Child Redeemed Mission Home, Promise Primary School, and Rock View Primary School. I’ll post more in the near future about bringing forth healthy abundant water from the ground, pushing back the darkness with power, funding projects beyond the reach of whole communities, enabled many small business to start and grow, encouraged and empowered a church and evangelism teams, and showed a lot of discarded and vulnerable children and people that they are valued. My personal prayer requests were mercifully filled and we were all blessed.

Here are a few photos of the best things that happened….Thank you all for your prayers and support!

Next Trip…#38, to Uganda, May 11

There is a lot going on at our served ministries, particularly at Promise Primary. We finished enclosing the compound in a fence for security, drilled a water well last month, currently constructing two Dormitory Buildings and a large water tank stand. Power will be wired into PPS for the first time after wiring over 1 km from town (in Uganda, you need to pay for the poles and wires). We will work to organize and complete these projects and leave the school with more class and dorm space, power, lights, and running treated water. The community will also have clean water access. There are a number of other projects at Child Redeemed Mission Home as well as just enjoying visiting those little Humans. As an engineer working in missions….this is really fun! Imagine the switch flip that ends darkness at night, and the valve turn that ends hours of work for dirty water. We will be the lucky ones to see that but give thanks to all who have supported MSM and praise to God!

Please pray for our provisions (these projects are costly) and for good weather (too much rain will be a problem).

Here are some current status photos…. Girls and Boys Dorms under construction.

Trip 37. Update 2…Bridge for School Kids

There was record flooding in the region around the Lord’s Servants Home (LSH) in Kenya in 2022. Two of the three bridges used to cross a creek and ravine from one side of the community to the other were made of wood and washed away. The 3rd bridge was constructed of steel and concrete in a joint project between Mission Servants Ministry (MSM) and the community in 2020 and had some repairable damage but survived well.

The community requested of the Mission Team and MSM to join in a project to build a durable steel and concrete bridge again to replace the ones washed away and allow school kids to safely reach the Bridgeway Hope Academy (BHA) on the grounds of LSH as well as general travel within the community. Meetings with the community leaders yielded a bridge design, budget, and commitment from dozens of people to participate in the construction. They attacked it with a passion and quickly completed the bridge which benefits all. Helping others help themselves is good help. Community projects that grow out of mission work is a great way to show more people the Love of Jesus Christ in a practical way. People will want to get to know that Jesus Christ as a start to a relationship.

MSM provided funding for all the materials. Pastor Ken provided the construction experience and leadership. The community provided the labor and food for those working.

The best projects start with a prayer!….
