Compassion Out Loud

The demonstration of compassion by the members of God’s Embassy Church in Rukungiri is causing an impact throughout the whole community. White Fields came alongside the church members by providing two brick making machines and resources to buy materials. The first project they wanted to accomplish during the training phase was to build a house for Christine. To fully understand this act of compassion, you must know the background of Christine.

Eager Students

Eager students devour the Word. That is what I encountered in Rukungiri, Uganda. Arriving at our humble classroom (plastic chairs, no desks, huddled in the back corner of the auditorium) we engaged for eight hours a day studying the Bible. Their laps were full of notebooks, Bibles, and extra paper. They had questions from beginning to end. They didn’t want to quit. These are the kind of students a teacher seeks to fill the classroom. They were gripped by the subject that would help them defend the truth of the Scriptures against imposters parading through their communities claiming to be “prophets” with a message from God.  “Learning how to interpret the Bible has put me in a position to defend against false prophets,” the testimony of one of the students.

Let’s Get Together

New believers demonstrate their faith by baptism.
New believers demonstrate their faith by baptism.

Now is a great time to gather and hear about what God is doing through the ministry of national pastors starting churches around the world. We have several events scheduled this Fall. Since 1953 White Fields has provided collaborative start-up support to pastors planting local churches among their own people in other parts of the world. You can join us at one of these events to hear about the impact this mission is having in extremely poor communities. Hear the testimonies of new believers that have come to faith and joined the church.

We have seen remarkable progress in the bolstering of the local church here! In Katobo we have been building a house for a member of the church named Christine. Christine suffered for many years from demonic oppression, as a part of this oppression she often had seizures which would leave her unconscious for minutes or even hours. As she was preparing dinner one night she had a seizure and fell face first into a fire. Her face was badly burned and scarred, from this episode, her family and friends despised and rejected Christine sending her away. Desiring to be free from this oppression she ran to Gods Embassy church where Onesimus pastors. Christine became a believer in Jesus and faithfully serves in the local church, she has a new family of friends that love her! [Read more…] about Uganda Outreach 2016
