Dear Family, Friends & Supporters,
For the month of March, our team worked under Pastor Joseph Nsanga and his wife Beatrice at Ambassadors of Life Church Ministries International in Uganda. It was our absolute pleasure partnering with him and his family and experiencing all the ministry opportunities that they are involved in.
This family has five natural children (Sarah, Sandra, Samuel, Solomon, and Sophie), as well as many adopted spiritual children, four of whom live with them (Mary, Betty, Matiyah, and Moses). Their hearts beat to love the Lord and to look after the orphans and those who need to know the love of the Father. Along with these children, they have helped to start a school/orphanage in a village about 5 hours away from the city they live in. They have also helped plant many churches. The church that they pastor is also a refuge for those who do not have a home, almost doubling as a homeless shelter. It began under a jackfruit tree, where their family lived for many months and they now have four makeshift walls and a tin roof where others can call it their home as well as the house of Christ.
Unfortunately, the lease on the property where the orphanage is will be up very soon. They do not have the financial means to renew the lease or to pay teachers or caretakers to continue to work there. Along with those expenses, they also do not have the means to keep the electricity on in their home or at the church or pay for all of their children to go to school. Although they are facing these hardships, they are trusting the Lord to meet these needs. We are walking in faith with them as a team knowing the Lord is faithful to provide.
The Nsanga family has helped us each individually discover more of who the Lord is, helped us grow spiritually and also taught us how to love well. They have taught us what freedom in Christ looks like and how to walk out in our giftings. They have taught us about having joy through any life situation, and to trust the Lord’s faithfulness. They have taken us in as their own children and made us family. We are forever blessed.
As a team, Spirit Reign has decided to try to help support them in any way we can. We feel like the Lord is asking us to help them to meet these financial needs. This is not an effort we are making through World Race, but is an effort we are making as a “family.” We have set up a paypal account through our team leader, EJ Muller, where friends and family can donate to help this family meet their needs. Please prayerfully consider partnering with us to meet the needs of this family. We are hoping to raise $5,000+ by the end of April. These funds will be used to help send their children to school, continue to fund the orphanage, as well as meeting needs at their church including electricity and personal needs of church members. If you are unable to help financially, please consider partnering with us in prayer. Thank you for all of your support and for continuing to be the body of Christ. We love you!
You do not need a paypal account just a credit card or debit card!
