Playgrounds and
Family Discipleship
Love Made A Way Ministries has now built two playgrounds. The first being in Partnership with Streams Of Life Church and Lighthouse Primary School In Mengo kampala. We built this playground after identifying a need in this community for a safe place for children and families to gather and build memories. We saw children playing on the roads and in gutters and children losing their lives by playing in places that were not safe. The playground discipleship program goal is to mentor kids and families showing them the love of God and seeing them planted into the local church.
Our second playground was built in partnership with our first school built in Otichi Village in Northern Uganda past Gulu. Our current primary school needed a safe place for children to play and be kids, As often their days are filled with labour and school work. Kids need time to be kids!
Schools
Love Made A Way Ministries felt the call to empower our first village which was Otichi Village. Otichi Village is one of the most remote villages in Northern Uganda about 1.5 to 2 hours from the nearest town depending on the road conditions. We are currently teaching pre K to grade 7.
Our goal is to add on a classroom block every two years or as funds become available. We recently constructing our third block of classrooms. Love Made A Way Ministries believes education is key to seeing change in our communities. We provide free education for all of those in the village.
Clean Drinking Water:
Love Made A Way Ministries has built four drinking wells now. One of the leading causes of death in developing communities in unclean drinking water. This leads to many health concerns and even death. We were seeing people in Otichi Village drinking from the same watering hole as the livestock and where people would bathe, wash clothes. We were seeing children die from parasites and waterborne diseases. Since building (three in Otichi) clean drinking wells we have not seen one death or sickness due to waterborne illnesses in over 4 years!!
Church Plants
Love Made A WayMinistries heart is to lead people to the cross where we hope each individual we come into contact with sees the healing, delivering, life changing power of a God who loves them and accepts Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. We have now helped to plant two churches. The first being King Jesus Church in Busega with Pastor Rapheal and Allen Kujubi. The second church plant is in Otichi Village. In Otichi Village Streams of Life Church we have seen the whole community transformed for Jesus. Four years ago when we first decided to partner with Otichi Village we saw less than a 10 percent born again rate but we are now at over 90 percent born again rate and seeing more and more people coming to Jesus every day!!
Farming and sustainability
Love Made A Way Ministries heart is to see Jesus come into a community overtaken by poverty and see Poverty turn into Prosperity! We have started to help this village become completely self sustainable. Our goal is to use Otichi Village as our model to see the same impact take place in many other villages. We have started a farming project where we have live stock such as goats, pigs, chickens, doves, bees and turkeys. Our fruit and vegetable farming help to keep our feeding program costs lower by growing the food our self's. Most recently we planted 10 acers of coffee! Teaching this trade will help our village feed our students as well as their families and help us grow another village!
Clinics
Love Made A Way Ministries Believes when Jesus walks into a place sickness has to go! First and foremost our nurse prays for the patients that come into our clinic. We have seen many healings and miracles take place. However we do believe in the need for doctors and medical aid. We currently run a small clinic and pharmacy in Otichi Village. We have seen many lives saved through this project including seeing two people die be brought back to life through CPR. We also deal with mental health, suicide watches and asssesments as well as women’s health. We also provide malaria testing and treatments.
Feeding Program
Pocket Pals Pads
Love Made A Way Ministries Heart is to Empower girls and women with dignity and the ability to stay in school and work while on their monthly cycles. Our heart is to remove the stigma and cultural barriers that have been taught wrongly to these girls. Often girls are forced to miss school, drop out of school, marry young, become pregnant, sell their bodies for money to buy pads or work endless hours plowing fields to make enough to buy pads. Often these girls feel helpless and feel embarrassed. Love Made A Way Ministries started a program called Pocket Pals which are Washable/ Reusable Pads. These pads provide the girls with a sense of pride and security when having their monthly cycles. We have handed out over 4500 pads for free to girls in remote villages and schools this year. Our pads have gone to four different countries now!!
Sports outreach and empowering programs
Sports bring communities and families together through healthy competitive programs. It brings a sense of pride and belonging. We have two sports outreach programs we work and partner with. The first being the Legacy Village football club. Our first year having a young men’s soccer team we brought home the district trophy! This was the first trophy to ever be brought back to this village!! Through our sports programs we also believe in mentorship and discipleship! Love Made A Way Ministires partners with Memory Tom and Fathers Heart Ministries which is a outreach to the girls in slum communities who are at high risk of human trafficking, teen marriages, gang life, prostitution and teen pregnancy. We work with his ministry to provide jerseys and other equipment to help empower these girls.
Burn Treatments and Emergency Medical care
Love Made A Way Ministries believes that sometimes when crisis hits it is the best time to love people where they are at and show them Christ's love in Action. We have treated and provided education of burn treatment and prevention in our communities we work with and have helped provide hospitalization and medical fees for burn victims in our community. Where we are located there in no other option other than a miracle or help from our ministry we have provided emergency medical treatment and saved many lives that would not be here if it wasn’t for people like you who support our ministry.
