Overview

Mission

Our purpose is to equip local Christians and churches in Uganda with biblical knowledge leadership training and life skills by providing tangible resources supporting local pastors and ministries and offering trainings camps and conferences. We provide assistance for people to attend these events and similar events put on by other local organizations. We also exist to outreach to people in vulnerable communities to assist with housing food education and other basic needs.
