Our Golokwara Children's Ctr 

Our Golokwara Children's Center and Christian Academy for Excellence in Education, Leadership, and Community Impact

Our Children's Center in Golokwara, Uganda is now under construction. It will be a top notch facility where our staff will raise movers and shakers for a new day in Uganda. Our dream is to raise a generation for God free from a religious mindset, without the oppression of poverty, violence, and injustice- full of Holy Spirit and in love with Jesus. These children will become church planters, pastors, evangelists, lawyers, doctors and politicians, as led by the Lord. They will form the leadership to usher in a new day for Uganda. Total orphans who once had to fend for themselves on the street will live transformed lives receiving the love, care, nurture and schooling needed to be succesful in life. They will learn valuable vocational skills, business development, and leadership training, as well as a fully rounded curiculum in the arts, sciences, literature and Bible. The long range plan for the center is that it will be a source of enrichment and economic development for the community by introducing the arts and business development. The center will become self-sustaining through small business ventures, agriculture and animal husbandry. 

Aides, insurgencies and terrorism have left over 2 million children orphans in Uganda. Many of them are left to fend for themselves with disastrous results. These children are targeted for child slavery, sex trafficking and for recruitment into child armies. It is urgent that they be rescued from the street. We are working with child safety officers and other government agencies in Uganda to identify and help the most vulnerable. 

Our goal is to raise house parents who will provide care and nurture in top notch homes on our property. They will employ the highest standards of excellence in diet, hygiene and education. But, the primary focus of our center will be worship, bible, ministry and leadership training, and daily soaking in Holy Spirit. Children are very receptive to the Lord and when raised in the right environment they respond beautifully to His call on their lives. 

We believe that not only will our center help meet the needs of 100's of kids, but will be part of the answer to the prayer that Jesus told us to pray, "Pray that the Lord of harvest send workers into the harvest fields." From the outback of Uganda God will raise mighty men and women of God who will usher in a new era in the nation and beyond. "Lift up your eyes, for the fields are ripe unto harvest!"
