Empowering Christian women and girls from a young age is a message that well-known gospel musician Zabuli is broadcasting around the nation.

She strongly believes that once women discover what they are born to accomplish through Christ – whether that be strengthening others, championing a specific cause or touching lives with their gifts – then true fulfilment will come.

To celebrate International Women’s Day, Zabuli recently unveiled a prayer-themed event labelled ‘Girl Get Up’ to create safe space for a woman’s call.

The event is scheduled for 7th March, 2020 at Kabalagala Pentecostal Church starting 4:00 PM. Entrance fee is Ush 10,000 (Students), Ush 20,000 (General) and Ush 50,000 for VIP.

Running under the theme ‘on your knees girl, nations are waiting,’ speakers for the event include:

  1. Award winning Christian radio personality Faith Murungi.
  2. Philanthropist and gospel musician Grace Nakimera
  3. Spirit 96.6 FM’s Rebecca Namitala, aka Lady Bezo
  4. Bernadette Ojao, the team leader Pads For Her Uganda.
  5. Gospel musician Katalina Mezu
  6. Dr Florence N Lukandwa.

They will network to reach out to at-risk girls and women of all ages, race and professions, and offer mentorship, and spiritual support.

According to Zabuli, barriers will be broken and stereotypes shattered as women take new ground, emboldened by the support of other women standing with them.

“I am not perfect yet but through my dark past, I am standing today to testify there is power in holding up one another in love without judgment,” Zabuli remarked on social media.

“I am taking responsibility as one of the servants of this generation over the fact that many girls have been disappointed by church after they messed up. They were harshly judged, and thrown out for their mistakes,” Zabuli said.

“They were made to believe ‘God cannot forgive you after you mess up,’ but what is God without love? I am here to offer a place where you can heal by the grace of God with no judgement, a home where you will meet other angels like you who came from ruins to life testifying, I am here to tell you you cannot allow them to take any more power from you by letting them belittle you to the guilt of your mistakes. I am here to introduce a ground waiting for the warrior in you to ‘getup’ and get back in the ring, let God give you beauty for those ashes for nations are waiting,” she said.
