Uganda

Since 1987 Uganda-which used to be called the “pearl of Africa”, has been terrorized by the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), a rebel group engaged in an armed rebellion against the Ugandan government in one of Africa’s longest-running conflicts and devastated by the HIV epidemic.

In Uganda we are working with Pastor Peter Kasiviru, an estblished leader with a twenty year history of saving lives, to relocate thousands of refugees from the squalor of the refugee camps back to their traditional homelands in Soroti, Uganda.
