Nurturing as a Habit of the Secretariat Individually

Image
  As we marked the close of the  third quarter of the year with the  13th Sabbath , The presence of our guest   Pr. Kyeyune Robert , not only changed our minds on how to mind about us as a congregation but also changed the brightness and sparkle of our church walls in preparation.🌿  Pr. Kyeyune reminded us that every believer who comes to Christ arrives vulnerable and in need of care . Just as new borns require constant attention, love, and patience to grow, so too do God’s people when they step into the family of faith. “ God’s people are His toddlers, ”  They need extreme care, pampering, and nurturing as they learn to walk with Christ. A big call to action question He left paused, Despite all the sacrifices and efforts we make to create a welcoming environment for worship , why do believers still disappear? This question leaves thoughtful reflection on how the church can do more to not only welcome new believers but also walk with them consistently, ens...

God calls each of us for a purpose

Image
20th September was a special sabbath as the global church celebrated World Pathfinder Day marking 75 years of Pathfinders serving strong. Here, the day kicked off with a flag-raising ceremony, led by Pathfinders smartly dressed in their full uniform. Their yellow and vibrant green set the tone for a joyful Sabbath of worship, service, and celebration. The sermon by Nsereko Enoch centred on 1st Samuel 16:7, reminding us that “man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” The preacher illustrated this with the example of Mr. Lubinga Godfrey, the first elder of the church. Who would present excuses of not being skilled in marching drills if called to serve as a Pathfinder director.  Just like David, who stood before Goliath armed with nothing but trust in God, we too are called to step forward with faith rather than excuses. The message was clear: God calls each of us for a purpose, and He looks beyond ability to the heart willing to serve. Adding ...

God Knows Us as Honest Servants, We Only Disappoint Him – P.A System Sabbath  Before diving into the highlights of this sabbath, we pause to extend our heartfelt condolences to Sister Nalwoga Jullian together with Namubiru Lillian, who lost a beloved mother. As church family, we stand with you in prayer and support. May God’s comforting hand carry you and your family during this period of grief. The Public Address (P.A.) System Department led out in worship, and what a day it was. The department members looked marvellous and united in their new maroon uniforms, a color that gave the premises a fresh vibrance. Alongside them, extra instrumentalists joined in, filling the service with uplifting music that set the tone for unusual praise and worship. Worship came through a powerful sermon by Elder Kagolo Ivan , titled :   “Tulowozebwa nga tuli besigwa.” drawing from Exodus 17 , Numbers 12:3 , and Hebrews 6:10 , Elder Kagolo reminded us  that leadership and service in G...

"Preparing for the Final Event" Fasting/Prayer Day

Image
Dear Church Family , We hope this newsletter finds you in good health and high spirits as we embark on the journey that is the year 2024. Our first Sabbath of the year was marked with an enlightening sermon under the theme, "Preparing for the Final Event," which centered on the importance of unity, discretion, and forgiveness within the body of believers.  The sermon, drawing inspiration from Matthew 5:20 and James 5:13, emphasized the significance of keeping desecrate within one's self. Our speaker highlighted the need for us to refrain from gossip and to avoid actions that might adversely affect our fellow brethren. The central message resonated with the idea that, as members of the body of Christ, we are called to strengthen our bonds, standing united and avoiding the pitfalls of revenge. Genesis 12 and 13 were invoked to illustrate the importance of unity. The example of taking a person to prison, despite being legally justified, served as a powerful metaphor. We were...

As we dr e w closer to the climax of this spiritual gathering, today was marked by inspirational messages, baptisms, and community visits.  The 6th day of the camp meeting witnessed an inspiring message delivered by the main speaker, Pastor Ssekitto Noah.

Pastor Noah stressed that a baptized individual should not only receive God's grace but actively participate in the Christian journey through prayer, helping others, and preaching the gospel.   "Baptism is just the beginning. After baptism, we are called to a life of service, to pray without ceasing, to help those in need, and to share the word of God."   Putting these words into practice, Pastor Abwire Robe...

A FLAME IN OUR LIVES

Image
  Dear Beloved Members   Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! We trust this message finds you well and filled with the spirit of love and hope.   As we gather during this blessed Kyanja District Camp Meeting, we reflect on the profound words shared by Pr. SSEKITTO NOAH during Day 3 of our spiritual journey. His powerful message resonates deeply with our hearts, reminding us of the critical importance of staying true to our faith, even in a world that sometimes seems to have lost its way.   Pr. NOAH highlighted the story of King Ahab and how his leadership ultimately led Israel astray, forgetting that it was God who had placed him in his position of authority. This serves as a poignant reminder that our actions, as parents and leaders in our own right, deeply influence the lives of those entrusted to us.   "The acts of the father and mother are the exact acts of the children." These words challenge us to examine our own lives and ask: If Go...
