Mission Uganda

I am tremendously excited about this upcoming weekend at Summit Church Naples. As many of you know, this weekend we have the opportunity to join God in what he is doing in Nabukalu, Uganda at “The Home of Champions” Orphanage. This partnership comes at a pivotal time in the life of our church.

God is doing amazing things in our church body, and He is giving us great favor in our community. We exist to glorify God by presenting the gospel to every man, woman, and child, connecting them into loving relationships with Jesus Christ and with others. Mission Uganda is a focused extension of this mission and we are committed to join God in his activity all around the world.

For $34 a month you can sponsor a child and help them receive all they need to grow both physically and spiritually. There are 100 children who must be sponsored so we are calling for everyone who is able to sponsor a child (or two) to consider helping. I have been to this orphanage, spent time with these children and I am sure God has spoken to us as a church.

The “Nabukalu Home of Champions” is about 4 hours east of Kampala, the capital city of Uganda, in a rural farming community which is 90% Muslim. The Home currently serves 100 children through shelter, food, education, and discipleship. The Home is affiliated with a church in Kampala, which has a compelling vision and a successful ministry to care for its fellow Ugandans who are steeped in poverty.

The Home is in a strategic position to spread the gospel to every man, woman, and child in its area. It was begun and soon they built a well. Within months, there was an entire village built around this orphanage. This makes for an amazing opportunity for us! Not only do we get the chance to pour into an entire home of precious children of God and the future of Uganda, but we can also begin building relationships and meeting needs in an entire village! What better way to help bring hope and dignity to these children than to allow them to be the catalyst that spreads God’s love and care to this village.

We believe this is a sacred moment for us. Will you pray and ask God how he would have you respond to this opportunity?

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4

See you on Sunday!
