Hope for Sarah and Her Daughters: Food and Education Support
Sarah’s life was forever changed three years ago when a stroke left her right side paralyzed and took away her ability to speak. In her greatest time of need, her husband abandoned her, leaving Sarah and her two daughters, Esther and Mirembe Aine, to fend for themselves. As a new believer, Sarah is clinging to her faith, but the challenges she faces are overwhelming. She has no means to provide for her family or to give her daughters the education they deserve. Your support can bring hope and stability to Sarah’s household, covering essential needs like food and school fees, and showing this family the love of Christ in action.
She needs:
$40 per/month food provision
$120 per child/per term (4)
Please sponsor this family and/or one or both of these girls’ education.

𝐆𝐎𝐀𝐋: $𝟐,𝟓𝟎𝟎 𝐁𝐘 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝟐𝟓𝐓𝐇 𝐉𝐀𝐍𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐘
Many thanks to our friend, Lisa Cowan, whose birthday fundraiser allowed her to provide money for the 1) Latrine, 2) Cookware, 3) Wash basins and 4) One solar lamp!
Lisa and her husband, Todd, (and their friend, Sherri) will be with us the end of January. Todd would like to work on the house, but we need the building supplies. The replaced roofing sheets will allow the old ones to be used to build a small cooking porch where meals can be prepared even when it rains. Cement floors and plastered walls are needed in the bedrooms, plus doors.

Ryan is one of two cousins whom Musumba has taken in because their home situation was impossible. Ryan has been very sick with malaria and typhoid. He needs about $310 for treatment.

Ministry House Needs
Our new ministry house has recently been completed, and now we are working to furnish it with essential items to make it a welcoming space for all. Beds for traveling volunteers, kitchen furniture, and living room furniture are all urgently needed to create a comfortable and functional environment. This house will serve as a hub for volunteers and ministry activities, and having the proper furniture will ensure that it is equipped for rest, fellowship, and service. Your support in helping us furnish the house will allow us to better serve both our volunteers and the local community.
Petwa House Urgently Needed
Meet Petwa, a devoted mother who has taken in three orphaned relatives in addition to caring for her own children. She lives in a mud wattle house that is collapsing, leaving the family vulnerable to dangerous conditions, including snakes that enter through holes in the walls. Among her children is Emmanuel, who is severely disabled, and Isaac, one of the orphans, who recently fractured his knee and will be on crutches for some time. We received $245 for Isaac’s treatment, but another $150 is still needed to cover the full cost. The family desperately needs a safe home, and the materials alone will cost $15,000. We are praying for a construction team to help build it, and with your support, we can provide Petwa and her family the security and stability they need.
Family/Marriage Conference May 2025
Building Stronger Families on a Foundation of Faith
This year, we are expanding our impact by bringing the marriage conference to multiple villages instead of hosting a multi-day event in one location. Throughout May, we plan to hold one-day conferences in each of the five villages we serve, ensuring that more couples can participate without the barrier of travel. These conferences will continue to focus on strengthening marriages, deepening faith, and building a strong biblical foundation for families.
We will still provide workbooks, meals, and essential resources to attendees, creating an environment where couples can learn and grow together. Children will also have meaningful activities during the sessions, making it a valuable experience for the whole family. This effort relies on generous support from volunteers, donors, and missionaries to provide these vital resources. Your contribution—whether through funding, spreading the word, or direct involvement—will help bring transformation and hope to families across these communities.
