Join Us in Uganda!

We need you and the skill set that you hold in multiple ministry projects in Uganda. Please find the multiple areas of ministry and consider how you can add to each one. If you do not think you have a relevant skill set, come with your heart and serve to make a difference!

1. Medical Outreach. With a poor and sick nation comes the need for medical care. Christian Life Ministries has made great leaps in this area, but there is still plenty of need to be fulfilled. This includes providing general medical care, dental care, and eye health care for our children, believers, and non-believers alike.

2. Business Leadership. To help the economy and create jobs, we encourage business professionals in any industry to help us help the businesses of Uganda. This includes participating in business summits, 1-on-1 mentoring, and anything else to influence the business arena of this nation.

3. Serve Orphan Villages. Christian Life Ministries has two operating orphan villages in order to take in helpless orphans and widows in an effort to raise them up to be future leaders of Uganda. The children are given a home, a loving family, an education, and hope for a better future. They are raised to know and love Jesus Christ, and the morals that are instilled in them will help Uganda to be a better place by emphasizing kindness, love, patience, humbleness, peace, and self-control among others. We need your help in many areas in this orphan villages, including giving love to the children, Vacation Bible School, widows/mothers ministry, construction and renovation, decoration, etc.

4. Evangelism. We are always trying to spread the great news of the Lord to all of the eager souls of Uganda. We do this through church planting, church construction, 1-on-1 and community open door mini-crusades, etc.

5. School Outreach. Help from the ground up through school outreach programs. We are specifically looking for teachers and school administrators to influence the academic decision makers of Uganda by meetings and consultations as well as major school assemblies.

6. Other Specific Projects.
A. Building Projects
B. IT Support for Church and Orphan Village
C. Worship Clinics
D. Sports Clinics
E. Landscaping
F. Media Ministry and Improvements

Bring your specific talents and put them to work in Uganda to change the lives of so many!

Pillowcase Project

This weekend The Oaks Fellowship hosted their first Pillowcase Project and several from our office attended. God is truly using these women to bring joy to our sweet orphan girls. The dresses are turning out great and I know that our girls are going to be so excited to wear them.


These are the wonderful dresses we completed at this event!

And here is what they have finished thus far!

Remember, if you are helping with this and are making them at home. Please send them to our office when you are done. We are excited to see what you have come up with!

Fabric Donation

We received a fabric donation today from a fabric designer. It was such a blessing to get this supply of fabric for our Pillowcase Project.

Here is the note sent with the fabric, what an encouragement!
We just want to let you know how inspiring you have been. I hope that the scraps will be helpful in reaching your goal. The Pillowcase Dresses are so cute and hopefully we can help you put a smile on a child when she receives her new dress.
The name of the line is LOVE and how fitting for the wonderful work that you do because we can see all the love you're putting into that work.

Summer Missions

This time of year is always very exciting for me as teams begin to arrive in Uganda for their various mission trips. Visions that have been planted over the year begin to take place and transformation in Uganda becomes even more of a reality.

We had our first team arrive on Monday and our second team today. They are already on the ground working hard and ministering to our orphans, widows and the people of our church. We are excited to see what the Lord will do through these teams during their short time in Uganda.

Please pray for safe travels for these people. Praise the Lord for their safe arrival. Pray for their visions to come alive and things to be done in the time frame they had hoped they would take place. Pray that relationships would develop. Pray God would move among the people of Uganda and the people from here.

Can't wait to give you updates on what is happening in Uganda this summer!!

New York

It was good to travel to New York this weekend. I enjoyed talking to a church I have had a relationship with for 18 years now, Bethel Gospel Tabernacle. It was a joy to catch up with old friends and meet new friends too.

My time with this church was refreshing and a blessing from God. I am always happy to see what God would have me do through my speaking in a church. It is very good to feel the presence of God among the church and his people. God is very good!
