by Jotham Kabuusu. Last Sunday as the 3pm service, we visited Butabika hospital, particularly the unit of addictions and drug abuse. I was part of the group that went to the ward with female patients who had shown signs of improvement. I will be honest and state that I was not as brave as my[…]
..:: By: Bonita Mulelengi ::.. Differently enabled! You never truly understand the depth of a word until you experience or have an associated experience of the same. ‘Differently enabled’ are the words printed on the shirts that some of the T-shirts that the children the Uganda School for Spastics were wearing on June 26, 2016[…]
It was another beautiful Sunday but one of a kind! Going for church outdoor, I definitely had mixed feelings and I was not sure what to expect about how the day would turn out but I decided to be a part of the amazing cause.

We call them disadvantaged, unprivileged, disabled, etc and though[…]
..:: By Dennis Wandera ::.. My time at the Spastics school was so fulfilling – a perfect reminder that God dwells among the “least of society” like the handicapped children hosted there. I went for church outdoor ready to bless the children, but even in their physical state, they instead blessed me. Given opportunity, i[…]
..:: By: Edgar Ntwali ::.. I thank God almighty for giving me an opportunity to serve and minister to His people in Mulago orthopedic ward. It was my first time to visit the ward and also participate in outreach ministry. I found it a bit challenging because I had to communicate in luganda which am[…]
