Introducing

Saul Walugembe

“Give a man a fish and you feed him for one day.  Teach a man to fish and you feed him for his life.”

My name is Lawrence Gingery and I have lived and worked in Ukraine as a Christian worker with One Collective (formerly International Teams – USA) for 21 years.  (http://www.onecollective.org/) (larr.gingery@onecollective.org)

I am sponsoring a fundraiser for SAUL WALUGEMBE, an orphan living in Mityana, Uganda.    

Saul is 24 years old and lives in Uganda in East Africa.  After his father died 7 years ago, he has been working on a day-to-day basis finding temporary work as he is able.  Often, he has to pray the prayer from Matthew 6:11: “Give us this day our daily bread.” 

I cannot imagine being in a situation where I didn’t know if I would have food to eat day by day.  And so, God has placed it on my heart to help Saul by creating a fundraising page for him on fundrazr.com 

SAUL’S FARM: With earlier gifts from donors, Saul began a Passion Fruit Farm on his family land.  He has an immediate need for funds ($650.00) to build a fence to keep the neighbor’s cows out of his field so they won’t damage his plants.  13 donors at $50 or perhaps 26 donors who could give $25 each would meet this need.    

FUTURE FARM EXPANSION: Saul has a dream for future farm expansion with a layer chicken egg farm.  Before his father died, Saul helped his dad with the family egg business and Saul hopes to save money from his Passion fruit sales (and with help from donors) to start an egg business again.  Start-up will be ($1500.)

I invite you to read his fence project & chicken farm plan, references, and view his photos. 

And I ask you to pray for Saul and ask God to provide for his future livelihood through donations to help Saul become a self-sufficient farmer.

Please share his story on your social media and help us spread the word to help Saul realize his dreams.  Thank you!

Christian Worker with One Collective

FRANK MULONDO, PASTOR:

Hello Brother and Sisters,

Praise the name of the Lord!

I hope all is well with you and your families by the grace of the Lord.

I am Pastor Mulondo of Grace Ministry Church.  http://graceministrychurch.com/

I received an email from one of my Church members, Saul Walugembe asking for a reference.  He is a faithful person who loves God and he is trustworthy.

He wants to open up an egg-layer chicken project and it will be really a blessing for you to stand with him in this project; brothers and sisters--it will also be a life changing blessing for Saul.

May the Almighty God bless you and use you all in Saul's life!

Yours, Pastor Mulondo
