Goat Projects
From the generosity of elementary students at Harding Academy and college students at Harding University in Searcy, Arkansas, our team has distributed 72 goats to church youth groups and nursery schools in Kenya and Uganda. Already, several of these goats have “produced” (given birth) and are becoming a source of income to needy children.

  

Namanyonyi received one of Harding’s goats.

 

 

Before George and Diana came,

this woman could not read her Bible.

 

   Eyeglass Clinics
George and Diana Franklin have made annual trips to Uganda since 1999 to fit and distribute eyeglasses to the seeing-impaired in rural villages of Kenya and Uganda. Using our rural church buildings to house one-day clinics, George and Diana help us give away about 1,500 eyeglasses a year. Praise the Lord for George and Diana!

Church Roofs
Though we do not usually buy land or build church buildings, we do try to affirm the efforts of rural churches by offering 20 corrugated iron sheets to roof their buildings after they have completed the first three church seminars and constructed their own meeting place. In the past, funds for this ministry have come from the Ferguson Foundation, Quaker Avenue Church of Christ (Lubbock, TX), and the generosity of many other congregations in the U.S.

 

  

Mayenze is just one of the many churches that has received a roof for their church building.

 

 

James Luchivya and interns Ryan Braun and

Heidi Davison help by giving one of the refugees

a blanked and cooking pot.

   Lira Relief
More than 15 of our rural churches have been terrorized by the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA), a terrorist organization operating in southern Sudan and northern Uganda. While the Uganda army is constantly fighting to stop the LRA, many Christians have lost their homes and all their possessions to fire and looting. Last month, we distributed food, blankets, cooking utensils, and other necessities to 19 families in Lira District with contributions provided by Christian Relief Fund (CRF). As we have opportunity, we want to continue meeting the physical needs of those displaced by rebel activity to our north.
