Capital Drive — New Dormitory

Goal: $400,000

Phased plan to add capacity to train more rural pastors:

  1. Phase 1 (12 months): Plans & permits, site prep, septic/storm, well, 3-phase power
  2. Phase 2: Dorm construction
  3. Phase 3: Finishes & furnishing

Current pledged: $15,000

Available matching grant: Up to $50,000 (confirm with donor)

Our Mission & Impact

There are at least 100,000 rural pastors in Uganda. Our mission is to reach as many as we can — training pastors who then disciple others. Current capacity: 17 pastors per year.

Short term goals: increase trainee capacity, expand vocational training, and complete the dormitory to host more pastors on campus.
