Since moving to our new place, it is common to find people gathered under our mango tree. Mango trees are common meeting places for church and school, but the weather often cancels such gatherings. Our vision is to build a meetinghouse. A place that is shaded from the hot sun and the rain.
A place where we can meet and host Bible study, pastors training, Farming God's Way classes, or any gathering that arises.
A place where the gospel could be heard.
A place where Bible teaching can happen in an area where the resources and books are limited.
The construction will be done in phases, but the groundwork must be laid. As Scripture tells us, Build on a firm foundation. The sketches have been drawn with the ability for expansion in the future to include a kitchen to provide indoor cooking and meals for hosting larger gatherings, an office, and potentially a library to provide resources where pastors and Farming God's Way students can gather and study. We will start with the foundation and then the front room. Would you consider contributing to the construction of a meeting house? Join us in building, so that those who want to hear can come and receive the truth.
COSTS:
blueprint submission $850
foundation slab of the entire structure $6,000
completion of front meeting room walls,s roofing, and electrical $8,500
Estimated Budget for the entire structure (including the above figures) $30,000

We served the community of Bukaya, just outside the city of Jinja, for almost 10 years. We recently moved to a bit more remote village called Kikubo. It is a heavily Muslim community. We bring the Gospel to our community through relationship building, Farming God's Way, and Bible study.
In the Gospel of John, Jesus spoke about harvest in response to the disciples' question regarding the Samaritan woman at the well when her testimony brought the town to the feet of Jesus. He explained in agricultural terms, "the fields are ready for the harvest." The harvest is the "gathering of the fruit of eternal life." To receive a harvest, the farmer prepares the soil, digs holes, pulls weeds and thorns, and prays for rain, and eventually a crop grows. Jesus' description of such investment of sowing into human hearts is now defined by the church as discipleship. Jesus knew Samaria was ready to receive the Gospel, and he led his disciples there. Similarly, we have been directed by the Lord to this very place- Kikubo. When we prepare the "soil," literally and figuratively, we are preparing a place where the Gospel truth can be heard. Kikubo is ready for the harvest.
