Who We Are and Why We Do What We Do
Why We Do What We Do
Our Mission Field
God has called us to serve the beautiful people of the greater Mbale region of eastern Uganda. This vibrant but deeply challenged community includes tens of thousands of children, many living in vulnerable circumstances and growing up in homes affected by poverty, instability, or loss. A significant number of these young ones are full or partial orphans, facing daily hardship in an area where the median age is just over 15. Yet even in the midst of these challenges, God is at work—bringing hope, shaping futures, and transforming lives one child at a time.
The unemployment rate remains a serious concern at roughly 70%, contributing to widespread poverty and poor living conditions. Most residents live in homes made from mud and wattle, with limited access to clean water and proper sanitation. Despite these significant challenges, the community is marked by resilience, joy, and a deep faith in God.
Through God's grace and provision, and with the continued support of our faithful partners and supporters, Mission Mbale has witnessed remarkable growth and transformation. The people of Mbale have embraced what God is doing, and the local government has acknowledged the positive changes in the community. Our presence here continues to grow stronger as more lives are touched by God’s love through this ministry.
Each new sponsorship, donation, and prayer has played a vital role in this mission. With God’s guiding hand and the backing of supporters who share in this vision, we are seeing tangible change—hearts are turning to Christ, lives are being restored, and hope is being renewed daily. This mission is not our own—it is God's work, and we are humbled to be a part of it as He continues to bring hope and renewal to the people of Mbale, Uganda.
To God be ALL the glory!!!
