Rehabilitating persecuted new converts and equipping Christians for personal growth and effectiveness in missions.

This project is done by Gospel Life Church International which is located on Plot 595 Namuli Zone, Najjanankumbi a Suburb of Kampala City, This Church is pastored by Pastor Umar Mulinde who was born, bred and trained in Islam with a degree in Moslem El-dawa, In 1990 Umar Mulinde met the Lord Jesus Christ and his life was transformed into a dynamic preacher of the Gospel of the Living Christ.

The Church has different departments which have been of great help to the members especially in terms of Spiritual growth and commitment to the Lord these include the Women, Men, Youth and Children Ministries.

Discipleship Activities:
? Home cells
? Making New converts
? Baptism-
? Evangelism (Door to Door, Street Evangelism, Mass Crusades)

Rehabilitation /Discipleship Center.

As we have worked with the victims of religious persecution in Uganda, we came to appreciate this challenge as very pertinent.
This has been especially in the case where the individual has converted from Islam to Christianity.

And it is a far- reaching problem as has been demonstrated in the unfortunate experiences below:

-Students are being chased from school by school authorities.
-Parents refusing to cover school dues for their children.
-Housewives are being forcefully divorced.
-Employees are being layed off.

-And in some cases some victims have been injured or even killed.

Most of these people lose hope after being cast out of their families and jobs. Its by this reason that a side from church, we set up a rehabilitation / discipleship center to look after the cast out former Moslems and other believers who are seriously persecuted for Christ.

Our aim is to restore their hope, create a safe environment for them to be grounded in the word of God, give them skills for self sustenance, train them to reach others, other wise they can end up backsliding.

Islam is more than a religion or faith into a family bond.

Therefore, conversion from Islam to Christianity makes you a family outcast who deserves death

New converts are scared by death threats by their own family members, schoolmates, workmate etc.

Being that most of these people are under death threats and are hiding for safety, we target to maximise this time to impart the knowledge of the Word of God in their lives.

We intend to teach them other different lessons like tailoring, carpentry, driving, craftwork and computer literacy.

Our aim is to restore their hope and give them anew direction. I?m glad to inform you that we have got an initial piece of land for this cause-Glory to Jesus Christ.
We are now putting up lecture rooms and a dormitory.
This will be a rehabilitation and missionary training centre. We invite volunteers and financial support for this noble work. .
We have a need of an amount, which is equivalent to 15500 pounds or 28000 dollars to finalise this construction work now.

We so far have 100 delegates and on each one we spend $ 3 a day that is for accommodation, breakfast, lunch, supper and training.

The Lord Jesus Christ said ?
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations?. Matthew28: 19.
He also ordered that: - bear much fruits and let your fruits remain John 15:16. We therefore have a mandate to disciple these persecuted ex-Moslems for Christ.

Please stand with us in prayers? and in any way you feel lead by God.
