Northgate Baptist and Food For the Hungry

Northgate Baptist partners with Food For the Hungry and a small village called Marare, in Uganda, to help them become a self sustainable community. From building classrooms, supporting entrepreneurship and leadership skills, to sponsoring children from the community, we hope to help transform Marare to the point where they can help themselves as well as neighbouring communities.

In Mbale

Very quick ... after a long journey yesterday (certainly longer than I remember) we arrived in Mbale yesterday evening.   We are now with the FH Staff in the Mbale office.  

We are currently working on passing across the Bibles, books and sports equipment we brought with up to help in their work here.


By the way this is Joshua, who is a new staffer in the Mbale office.   A number of the people we met last time are still here, but a couple have moved to different positions in the organization (yesterday we met Miriam again, who was in Mbale when we were here in 2015 but is now in the Kampala office in accounting).  Joshua is a social work graduate from Uganda Christian University (UCU) who previously worked for the Ugandan Wildlife Authority (who run the national parks) in community engagement (very important work in especially those communities that border on the parks ... critical to maintain relationships with them).
