We are all about reaching the community on a practical level. When the gospel comes into an area, things change. At Real Soldiers of Christ we have witnessed the transforming power of God and are eager to see it happen again in this village.
With each church we start, we open a shop and set up businesses for the members to run. (For example rearing pigs). This helps them come out of financial hardship.
We are renting the plot for the church, a small office and housing for some of our older boys who have been rescued from the streets. If we can raise £1,500 we can put down a deposit for buying this land and pay the rest by instalments.
We are renting tents which have to be dismantled after every meeting. We are in the process of buying our own tents. So some of the money can go towards that. Uganda is tropical, so if it’s not raining heavily we might be under piercing sun, so some form of shelter is necessary. For now it’s tents.
If we can buy that plot we will use it also for developing a centre where people can operate their small businesses to make a living.
