UgandaDwelling PlacesDwelling Places was founded in July 1996 by Rita Nkemba, a Christian social worker. Having accepted Jesus as her Savior, she sought the Lord's direction concerning her future ministry and career. Rita received Isaiah 58 from the Lord. From this, Rita discerned a calling to work with street and slum children in Kampala, Uganda. The vision of Dwelling Places is to provide a Godly, family-oriented setting for rescued Ugandan street children to live and have their basic needs met. Rita, the Dwelling Places staff, and several Africa Inland Mission missionaries work tirelessly to meet these children's needs. Their care also now extends to abandoned babies and needy families of Kampala.
Dwelling Places works to reestablish broken families, train needy families in various vocations, amd educate their children. Housing, food, education, counselling, and medical care are provided by Dwelling Places, and the love of Jesus is shown to children and families who desperately need Him.

Uganda is a nation plagued by AIDS and poverty. Many children have become orphans or abandoned due to the AIDS epidemic and live in extreme poverty. Many families are unable to care for their children without help. LifeChange International decided to help. In 2001, LifeChange International started to support individual children monthly. By supporting each child with just $15 a month, LifeChange International is helping educate, clothe, and feed them as well as giving them a hope and a future while they stay with their family unit. As a result, Omega Healing Center has seen many of the children come to Christ along with their siblings, parents and neighbors. This program has resulted in significant and lasting change to the community where they live.
If you are interested in supporting a child, Life Change Internatinal is asking for an initial two-year commitment of $15 a month. If you wish to, you can play an integral part in your child's life. You can pray for him, his family and his community. You can also send letters and Christmas cards through LifeChange International. "And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is my disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly not lose his reward" Matthew 10:42 |
