Impact The East

        In Uganda and other parts of East Africa many servant leaders lack training and the necessary resources to be successful for the work that God has called them to do.
      The above statement reflects the heart & passion of Continents For Christ. A great number of these faithful servants lack the finances, means of travel and other resources to obtain ministry training from Bible College and Seminaries. Continents For Christ understands their situation and after a time of prayer and seeking God’s will, we have made a decision to help. A ministry project has been developed titled: “Impact The East”. This project will bring the assistance these leaders need and deserve.

 October 19th – November 8th 2009, a three person ministry team from Continents For Christ will be in the Ugandan “bush” along the Rwanda and Congo border in Southwest Uganda and then the Northeast Region towards Kenya in East Africa. Two separate weeks of Bible-based & Christ-focused pastoral training & outreach will be conducted. Also villages will be supplied with rice, beans and Bibles in their native language. Over 600 pastors from local villages will be coming to attend training to assist them in carrying out the Lord’s work. Concurrent with the pastor training, nightly outreach crusades will be conducted to share the love, truth and saving grace of Jesus Christ. Between the two weeks of training & crusades local prisons will be ministered to with the Word of God.

 

 

        Why Uganda? & Why now? Because Continents For Christ has been invited by Ugandan pastors who need help. Also because the Spirit of God is moving in Uganda, East Africa. A country once held in bondage to war and a cruel governmental dictatorship (Idi Amin) is enjoying religious freedom and seeing a real spiritual break-through. Thousands are coming to know Jesus Christ and new churches are opening across the Nation of Uganda. With this spiritual awakening, comes the need for more trained pastors and leaders of the Christian church. Those that have asked for our help are experiencing the “harvest” as new souls are being won for Christ, but more trained workers are needed to assist them in their Country. It has been stated by one Ugandan pastor that too many church leaders and pastors either have no pastoral training or have very little (minimal) training. They also lack the resources needed to disciple new converts.

        Uganda and around the world the “open” and the “underground” Church is flourishing. With this increase comes a world-wide need for biblically grounded, trained leadership. Continents For Christ is committed to supply essential Bible-based, Christ-focused training to help with this need. Because we are a small ministry, we currently lack the necessary financial means to assist the people of Uganda. We have decided to step out in faith and believe God for funding of “Impact The East”.
 
Will you help us with this need?
“Impact The East” Project Description"



    Mission:  “
Reach the people of Uganda Africa for Jesus”.

    Target Date: October 19th – November 8th 2009

    Target Population: New & established pastors & lay leaders of Churches & Ministries in two Districts/Areas of Uganda.  Districts are: Busenyi District in SW Uganda & Katakwi District in NE Uganda.  Continents For Christ will spend one week in Mitooma Village in the Busenyi District and an additional week in Usuku Village in the Katakwi District.

    Our Goal
:  Teach, train and equip as many of God’s servants in Uganda as possible.  Also, equip & provide needed ministry resources to churches and ministries in two separate regions of Uganda. “Impact The East” will be working hand in hand work with Ugandan Pastor Steve Mayanja and World Outreach Ministry Foundation in Uganda.

Listed below is how “Impact The East” will assist the people of Uganda.

Ø  2 weeks of pastoral training for Ugandan rural (“bush”) pastors.

    Our Methods: Provide Bible-based, Christ-focused, Spirit-Led pastoral leadership training to the pastors and lay leaders of Uganda.

A. Sessions will be held in two key areas of Uganda. In addition to the teaching/training, the 3 person

    ministry team will participate in local crusades and prison ministry.

    the ministry life of Christ. Training is free with no cost to pastors receiving the training or training

    material.
