"I will build my church and the gates of hades shall not overpower it!"
Matthew 16:18

|
Churches are being built all over northern Uganda and South Sudan - more than 70 finished and dedicated and others in the process even now. When a church is constructed in a village, sometimes its the only permanent structure in the entire region. When a church is constructed it makes the statement - "Jesus has come to stay"! When a church is constructed it becomes a discipleship factory for the whole community.
|
|
The newly built churches are used for:
- Prayer meetings
- Mobile medical clinics
- Church on Sundays
- Women's Empowerment groups
- Village Learning Centers
- Mini Bible school courses

Can you imagine the excitement, dancing, and celebrations as they dedicate this new facility to Jesus!

Click the video above to see new believers in Amuru be baptized!
|
One such church in Amuru was built and dedicated in 2021. 74 new believers were just water baptized last week as the church is multiplying at an incredible rate. 103 new believers were baptized in July. Exponential growth and multiplication is happening in Amuru!
|
|
Another church built just a few years ago, called Akore Springs, has already planted 3 churches! At the newest church plant - just this past week - 37 new believers were baptized and 20 children dedicated. It is the only full gospel church that exists in its area and the surrounding communities.
|
|
As churches are established, discipleship and leadership training is included, new believers come to Jesus, additional churches are planted, and water baptisms and baby dedications take place! The impact of a church building is enormous!
GOD IS BUILDING HIS CHURCH AND THE GATES OF HELL SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT! ENTIRE COMMUNITIES ARE BEING IMPACTED BY THE POWER OF THE GOSPEL!
