WCGS Christmas Gift Program


Each year WCGS has a Christmas gift program that helps needy people around the world. The kindergarten and 5th grade classes rose over $1500 dollars. In addition, the kids donated small toys, vitamins, medicine and bedding. The kids gave up their allowances and did their own fundraisers! We will be bringing these gifts to Uganda on the 10th of January. The money raised is going to support our kids camps to be held in Kynanjula and Mercy Ministries. Last year we fed and presented the gospel to over 600 kids! The remaining donations will go to help fix-up our current homes with mosquito nets, new mattresses and new paint. Thank you to all who help support this special project!

Mercy's New House



After two years of getting kicked out of house after house Mercy Ministries finally has a permanent home. The move is scheduled for December 07. All the children will now be under one roof. This will help to unify leadership and reduce costs. The new home runs on solar power and has its own water supply so utility costs will also be eliminated.
