Mission

Pastoral Training - Our project plan is a 3-year school, in which the pastors spend one week out of every month learning the Word of God. By the end of the 3-year program, the pastor will be taught systematically through each book of the Bible and tested out of all 66 books. Widows Ministry - There are currently 150 widows in the program through 6 local churches. Food from the Business as a Mission (BAM) farm feeds the widows on a monthly basis. The trained pastors from the Pastoral School set up outreach committees to visit the widows on a weekly basis. Training and discipleship are the key tenants of this mission. Sustainable Farming (Business as a Mission [BAM]) - The BAM (Business as Mission) Farming project been built on a model of self-sustainability. The mission of the BAM Farm is to support the salaries of the mission, the cost of the Pastoral School, and to help the community. BAM Farm is located in Adak village which is approximately 25 kilometers outside of Gulu city.

Program accomplishments

• The year 2024 has been a season of growth and impact for our Widows Ministry, as we continued to serve 181 widows across six churches in different communities. Through God's provision, we were able to meet both physical and spiritual needs, ensuring widows receive essential food supplies while also deepening their relationship with God through discipleship and fellowship. Food Distribution & Outreach Each month, widows receive essential food items that support their daily sustenance. Distribution takes place on the last Saturday of every month, ensuring every widow personally receives her food at designated centers: * Calvary Chapel Gulu - 48 widows, 8 volunteers * Calvary Chapel 12 Spring Laliya - 47 widows, 9 volunteers * Dream Centre Adak - 35 widows, 7 volunteers * Calvary Chapel Palenga - 16 widows, 4 volunteers * Calvary Chapel Paminyai - 11 widows, 3 volunteers * Calvary Chapel Pabbo - 16 widows, 4 volunteers Monthly Food Rations per Widow: * 10 kg posho * 5 kg beans * 5 kg rice * 3 liters sunflower oil * 2 chickens Spiritual Development & Discipleship Recognizing that spiritual nourishment is just as vital as physical sustenance, we have facilitated weekly discipleship programs across communities. These small group gatherings, led by committee members, offer widows a space for: * Prayer * Bible study * Encouragement * Testimonies of faith and transformation Through these sessions, widows find hope, strength, and community, reinforcing the importance of their relationship with God. In addition to providing food, we introduced income-generating opportunities for widows. We offer posho at wholesale prices, allowing them to sell at retail value and make a profit. As a result, many widows are now building savings, increasing their financial independence.

• In 2024, the Terebinth School of Discipleship witnessed firsthand how God's promises unfold in transforming lives, strengthening leaders, and equipping pastors for impactful ministry. Biblical Training & Discipleship Throughout the year, more than forty pastors and church leaders gathered each month for an intensive week of Biblical study and discipleship. These sessions included: In-depth lectures covering essential theological topics. Group study discussions to refine understanding and application of Scripture. Twice-daily devotions, reinforcing spiritual discipline and growth. Rigorous testing, ensuring pastors could effectively handle the Word of Truth in their ministries. As the year came to a close, on Friday, December 13th, the graduating class experienced a powerful and emotional moment when they collectively read Revelation 22:21, marking the completion of their three-year journey through the entire Bible. The room erupted in spontaneous applause, celebrating their unwavering commitment to learning and leadership. Advancing Accreditation & Expansion Beyond our monthly training sessions, God has also opened doors for institutional growth. On Wednesday, November 6th, the school hosted an official inspection team, moving closer to formal accreditation. The accreditation process will position Terebinth School of Discipleship as a recognized theological institution, allowing students to earn certificates and diplomas that hold academic credibility. Impact on Leadership & Community The training and discipleship efforts of 2024 empowered church leaders to: Strengthen their families, churches, and communities through sound Biblical teaching. Promote personal integrity and righteousness rooted in the Gospel. Extend the transformative power of Christian discipleship beyond their local congregations.

• In 2024, the farm initiative at Dream Center Uganda remained a crucial pillar in supporting widows, training pastors, and advancing sustainable agricultural activities. This year, we focused on expanding our farming operations, enhancing livestock productivity, and strengthening milling and feed production to sustain both community needs and economic empowerment. Crop production The farm focused on sustainable crop production, successfully growing Soya beans and Sunflowers to enhance food security, economic empowerment, and agricultural sustainability. Through effective land use and resource management, we achieved promising yields that contribute to the local economy and support Dream Center Uganda' initiatives. In 2024 we planted 8 acres of soya bean at the farm and we harvested only 3.2ton in the first season. In the second season, we planted the 8 acres with sun flower seedsHysun variety and we harvested only 2.9ton. We also planted maize and about 1ton was realized from it. Little harvest was got from the banana as disease known as black sigatoka infected the banana and brought about poor yield.In 2024, Dream Center Uganda successfully expanded its Sasso chicken farming, providing both economic and social benefits to the community. The poultry initiative primarily focuses on brooding, selling, and distributing chickens, supporting widows and local farmers while maintaining financial sustainability. Key Achievements Monthly Chick Orders: Procured 2,000-2,500 day-old Sasso chicks every month. Brooding Process: Chicks are brooded for 3 weeks, ensuring proper growth and health before transitioning to the market. Distribution to Widows: Each month, 414 chickens are allocated to widows, supporting their livelihoods and food security. Sales Operations: The remaining chickens are sold at the farm's Annex branch in Gulu town (Awich), ensuring accessibility for local customers. Market Performance: Steady demand and reliable distribution channels contribute to consistent revenue generation and community impact. Financial Overviews: Total Monthly Chick Orders: 2,000-2,500. Our farm has expanded its goat rearing project, focusing on sustainable livestock management, infrastructure development, and fodder production. The establishment of paddocks and dedicated goat pens has improved the efficiency and health of the herd, ensuring better productivity and long-term sustainability. Infrastructure Development Paddock Creation: Multiple paddocks have been developed, allowing for controlled grazing and rotational feeding, which enhances land recovery and prevents overgrazing. Goat Pen Construction: A well-structured pen was built to provide secure housing, protection from harsh weather, and disease control measures. 3. Fodder Production and Feeding Grass Cultivation: High-quality fodder grass was planted in the paddocks, ensuring a continuous and nutritious feed supply. Supplementary Feeding: Plans include incorporating black soldier fly larvae as a protein supplement to enhance goat growth and milk production. Current Herd status & Growth Total Goat Population is rate 44 Breeding Program: Selective breeding has been introduced to improve quality, resistance, and productivity. Health & Veterinary Care: Routine checkups ensure disease prevention, parasite control, and optimal growth. As part of our ongoing efforts to optimize our rabbit farming practices, we have successfully transitioned the rabbits into a newly allocated space. The rabbits are now housed in a converted room, which was previously used for chicken rearing. This adjusted housing arrangement has proven to be effective, as the rabbits are thriving in their new environment. The spacious setup allows for improved movement, hygiene management, and better monitoring of their health and growth. In 2024, the milling activity at Dream Center Uganda continued to play a vital role in supporting the community by processing high-quality Posho and seasonal rice. This initiative has provided affordable food options, improved local grain accessibility, and strengthened economic opportunities for farmers and consumers alike. Posho Processing The milling operation produces three categories of posho to meet diverse consumer needs: Ordinary Posho - A staple food for many households. Second-Class Posho - A refined version with improved texture and quality. First-Class Posho - Premiumgrade posho, ideal for commercial and household use. By offering multiple grades, the mill ensures affordability and accessibility, catering to different market segments. Rice processing Rice milling remains a seasonal activity, with production peaking between September and January. During this period, the mill processes locally sourced rice, ensuring: Efficient grain refinement for better quality. Market availability for consumers seeking fresh, locally milled rice. Support for local farmers, reducing transportation costs and increasing profitability. Community impact The milling activity has significantly benefited the community by: Providing affordable staple foods to households. Creating employment opportunities for workers involved in milling and distribution. Supporting local farmers by offering a reliable marketplace for their grains.
