This tractor was donated by Grandpa Hampton, age 90, who actually used this tractor on his farm in Western Michgan in the early 1900s. Greg Hampton and Grandfather put on a new motor, got in in working condition and trasported it to Illinois. From there it went on the ourf container bound for Uganda. We will use the tractor to plow fields that supply our homes with food.

Bethesda Children's Village

In our ongoing mission to care for Uganda’s most vulnerable children, UORF is pleased to announce the beginnings of Bethesda Children’s Village. This new community will be a permanent residence for children who are orphaned or have been abandoned. Our first and best option is to always seek out a relative or family member who is willing to take in a child. Unfortunately, some children have no family to turn to for care and support—they are completely alone.
Our vision is to create the village to emulate an environment similar to typical Uganda family life—this is done to avoid any appearance of an institution. We will build simple family cottages that will accommodate up to eight children and a house parent. Each cottage will include a couple of acres of farmland so the children can learn the essential skills needed to thrive in an agriculture-based economy.
The village will also encompass a Christian primary school and Church. The church plant will be started by the Prespeterian Church in Uganda. World-wide Christians Schools will partner with UORF to build the primary school.
To help the Bethesda Children’s Village thrive, there are many ways that you can contribute to this project. We have purchased 20 of the 45 needed acres. In addition, please see a list of our other needs below. We thank you for becoming involved in our efforts to change the life of these children. You can make a donation at uorf.org.
Cottage $8000
1 acre of land $1000
Chicken coop $700
Pig Pen $700
Dairy Cow $500
Tilapia Pond $500
Pig $75
Goat $50
4 Chickens $50

UORf Starts New Project in Katonga Slum
UORF has decided to come along side Pastor Godfrey and help support his ministry to these children. At this time UORF is providing rent for a home and meeting crucial needs. Over the next several months we hope to put in place the necessary accountability structure so that we can increase our support and provide sponsorships so that all the kids can get into school.

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!
