Worship Harvest Ministries has donated shs30 million to support Church of Uganda reduce the debt it incurred during construction of Church House.
The multi-site church with 24 campuses and over 12,000 people, being discipled in more than 500 Missional Communities made the contribution when its lead pastor and vision bearer, Apostle Moses Mukisa paid a courtesy visit to Archbishop of Church of Uganda, Rev Stephen Kazimba Mugalu on 13th October, 2021 at Namirembe in Kampala, Uganda’s capital.
Apostle Moses Mukisa also gave the Archbishop copies of books on financial management, and “pledged further support.”
The Archbishop commended the Ministries’ gesture, according to a statement.
Official reports show that the Church House Building is aimed at raising income to run activities of the Church of Uganda countrywide. However due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Kazimba said the project failed to raise income to offset a loan incurred during its construction.
In June this year, the Archbishop while at All Saints’ Cathedral, Kampala launched the “Yes, We Can!” fundraising campaign, seeking to raise 1,000,000 “Love Gifts” of Ush60,000 from each members that subscribe to the church nationwide, to clear the construction loan.
“This year 2021 we are celebrating 60 Years of Self-Governance. So, I am encouraging everyone to give a thanksgiving Love Gift for Church House of 60,000/-. And, today is the 6th day of the 6th month of June, in the 60th year of self-governance. So, I encourage everyone to give a Love Gift of 60,000/-,” Archbishop Kaziimba said then.
Elsewhere, while speaking to the Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Anita Among, Archbishop Kazimba said once the loan is cleared, revenue generated from the Church House will support 37 dioceses to set up schools, health centers, churches and water projects.
A dedicated Church House Love Gift account was opened at Equity Bank. Deposits can be made on the account or through MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, or Equity Bank’s banking apps.
