Latest News!

Claire Newby has just arrived in Uganda to work with An African Dream in particular working with the youth of St Mark's school to disciple them in godly living and also provide a programme of life skills.

The staff and pupils at St Mark's school have been greatly encouraged by more good exam results this year. More news next month after one of our new trustees has been to visit.

Pastors' training takes place again this month - 22 pastors are gaining Bible training in order to disciple and care for their congregations better. In January a new church was planted so this vital work of training pastors is key to supporting the ongoing spiritual life of the community.

Widows now number 111 and the pig breeding project continues to be a success. Widow Irene Sarambi was able to buy 8 iron sheets to roof her kitchen after selling some piglets that she had bred and another widow Beatrice paid for her sons secondary school fees with funds raised from selling a pig. It is fantastic and enouraging to hear how lives are being changed day by day.
