Serving Uganda Through Lifeline

With almost no exception, each country across Africa has been devastated by wars, famine, and political instability which has destroyed families and even the idea of family. Well-meaning people, with the best intentions, tried to solve that issue by building orphanages. The result has been even more devastating. Lifeline's Global Orphan Care ministry connects with local churches, church networks, and children's homes as well as NGO's who are helping solve this issue to bring effective Biblical, Clinical, and Organizational training, mentoring, and relationally driven partnership.

Global Orphan Care

Busega School for the Deaf and Blind

Global Orphan Care partners with King Jesus Church in Uganda and their school for the deaf and blind. Over a decade ago, Lifeline connected with a local Ugandan pastor whose church saw the need to care for the orphaned and vulnerable children in the area. In the many African communities, if a child is deaf, blind, or physically disabled, he or she is treated as a curse. The church felt called to minister to these children.

Children from the community are able to learn how to communicate using sign language. Most importantly, they are learning about the gospel of Christ and their value in Christ. They are being shown the love of the gospel through their local church. Members of the church are involved in the lives of these students and are learning sign language as well. Through our child sponsorship program, there is an opportunity to sponsor a student from the School for the Deaf and Blind.

Benjamin House Ministries

Benjamin House exists to provide donors, churches, and other groups an avenue to inspire hope across Uganda through the Gospel of Jesus Christ by transforming the lives of at-risk and vulnerable children, preparing them for their futures, and building up the next generation of leaders.

Benjamin House's programs include church planting, pastoral training, family sustainability sponsorship, savings-based loan programs, and family restoration with boys that have lived on the streets.

Pastor Ernest, Family Fellowship Church

Global Orphan Care also partners with Pastor Ernest in central Uganda. This pastor has a ministry that is focused on teaching vulnerable young men sustainability through agricultural programs. His farm serves as an apprenticeship-type program where the young men can learn valuable skills to support themselves, while building the community overall.

In addition to the farm, the pastor and his church provide mama kits for pregnant women in the community.

Restoration of Hope Children's Ministries

Pastor Tugume in western Uganda is a village pastor who has built a school for vulnerable children in his village who otherwise would not have access to education. He also helps get critical training to area village pastors who have had no Biblical training, and works to spread the culture of care in these churches. Please pray for Pastor Tugume's church and school, specifically for financial provision for practical materials for the vocational training side of the school.

Holistic Rehabilitation Ministries International (HRMI)

Holistic Rehabilitation Ministries International (HRMI) in Uganda is a community-rooted Christian organization committed to restoring dignity and hope to vulnerable children and families through accessible education, compassionate medical care, and family-strengthening programs. Their work includes operating low-cost schools, supporting vulnerable mothers, providing basic healthcare services, and offering practical training that helps families move toward long-term stability. HRMI partners with Lifeline Global Orphan Care by participating in the Global Orphan Care Network, receiving biblical, clinical, and organizational equipping, and collaborating closely with Lifeline staff to strengthen church-based care for children, improve program effectiveness, and expand Gospel-centered impact throughout Western Uganda.
