Mission Uganda

 In January 2023, the Outreach Board learned about Hope Lutheran Church and School in Bufuula, Uganda from Stephen Maxwell. The Board agreed to help support the Primary School by designating it as a Noisy Collection recipient. Pastor Craig also invited Stephen to share more about his mission work during the Sunday School hour on March 5, 2023.  Stephen shared about the extreme poverty that exists in this country, but he also noted the rich faith that lives and is growing amongst the people who have been touched by the LCMS mission work there.

 In addition to our Noisy Collection donations, Grace Lutheran also sponsors Baniga Shawula, a student attending Hope Lutheran Primary School, through designated funds from the Outreach budget. You can find Baniga’s picture and photos of the school on the bulletin board as you enter the Education Building. If you would like more information about personally sponsoring a student in Uganda, please contact the church office. The sponsorship donation is $300 for the year. You will be able to select a student and correspond with them through letters Stephen Maxwell will deliver on his next mission trip to Uganda. See the downloads at the bottom of this page for sponsorship form & more information.  It is our hope and prayer that we will be able to fully fund Hope Lutheran Primary School in Bufuula through student sponsorships and other donations. 

You can submit your sponsorship donation online ("Give" button below), or contact the church office to pay by check.
