My family, I thought, wasn’t going to take me back in, but my sweet grandmother wanted what was best for me! If it were not for God, I would still be on the streets right now (or worse). Praise the Lord!!!
Saved From A House Fire
My Testimony goes like this. On a Sunday, there was nap in our house, and I was sleeping. There was a fan behind me, and the fan removed great fire but didn’t Kill me nor even burn me nor give me any wound. To God be the Glory for saving my life. There is no one like him. By now I could have been dead but God Saved my Life. May his name be highly praised.

By The Blood Of The Lamb And The Word Of Our Testimony
Most of us have heard that song “By the Blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony”, right? Well, I can tell you that problems in my work and sin that I did not understand is sin months ago has been confessed.
This past Sunday one of our pastors gave a sermon that struck me at the end. It helped answer my questions “why am I being dished out problem after problem” the attacks of the enemy are nonstop and spent months praying and pleading with God and the answer finally arrived this past Sunday at church. At the end of the sermon this pastor mentioned how he always went through problem after problem and he was always trying to dig himself out of the problems, but the problems did not go away.
Why, because he focused on his own problems rather than God’s will which is to share Jesus. Sure, you are repenting if there is sin, sure you are praying on your knees twice daily. Yes, the enemies’ attacks are numerous. Asking daily, Father cover me and wash me with the Blood of the Lamb. Rebuking the enemy. In the past I was more available to share “the word of my testimony” and even walked strangers into a relationship with Christ on occasions.
But the business of life and work has consumed me. Always trying my best to complete tasks in order to come up for a breath. The goal is to sell the businesses so that I can have more time with God, family, yes work planting seeds into non-believers, as I have done in the past with strangers and family members. But the testimony part was not in my recent past, say last 2-3 years and thus brings me to why it’s so important to have both “By the Blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony”, everyone can overcome.

Blessed With An Unexpected Job
I used to pray for a job from God until I applied as a security officer, for a certain company. By God’s grace instead of being a security officer, they picked me to be the operations clerk (someone who looks after security payroll). To all those who are praying for a job, don’t give up. One day a door will open for you, for God never slumbers upon his own.

Hi My Name Is Wallder
*In 2001
I was born to religious, hard-working parents. Till gradeschool, I wanted to stay as desirable upstanding boy. Adolescence can be a challenge for parents. A youngster may at times be a source of frustration and exasperation not to mention financial stress. But these years also bring many many moments of joy, pride, laughter and closeness
*In 2015
I found substance abuse the next most popular substances differ between age groups, then I thought most people were ready to take on the responsibilities of adulthood. Why not me.
*In 2016
My life got further out of control with each passing year. Relying on a substance to feel good or cope effectively with everyday life. The habitual use of a mood chemical abuse. Knowing the harmful consequences developed a dependence With no direction and no aspirations. And over the next four years, and so on. My life spiraled out of control I was so disappointed with the faith that I went from being a’good religious kid’to the opposite extreme. I had driven away everyone who cared about me suddenly lost confidence and felt dispirited,
*Mid 2017
I would discover that while I was running from God he had been working on others close to me. I attended church services. And I was blessed to have a few mentors in the church who discipled and enlightenment me over anxiety and fear confession time with the priest faithfully shared the gospel with me and guideline inner prayer and I started exercising self-control.
*Early 2018
The Chruch people there sincerely loved God. They were kind and not hypocritical. They actually loved and welcomed me. I thought these Christians are having fun and enjoying their relationship with God. God seems so real to them.
*Late 2018
I distinctly remember a feeling of internal struggle within my soul. I heard that God loves me so much that he sent Jesus to die for my sins. I understood that by trusting in Jesus all of my sins would be forgiven, And that I would be accepted by God and made right with him. And yet I couldn’t escape feeling like God had cornered me with his love and I had no choice but to lay down my resistance and surrender. I discovered that even the fiercest resistance or the coldest indifference is irrelevant, once God decides to act in your life. I was replaying the last 4 years of my past. My life was in order for the first time. I had saved myself I began noticing a different more peaceful environment at home. My life today is a testimony to God’s goodness and grace.
A Single Mother’s Faith
Today am standing here to give honor and glory to the Almighty God of showing favor upon me and my entire family. We grew up with a single mother of five children and she had to go everywhere and look for work so that we could survive. But things became worse because my mother was a born-again Christian in the early 1990’s and during that time to be allowed to work, you must be Moslem, protestant or catholic.
To cut short, things became worse but insisted to trust in the Almighty God who saved mother in all wrangles of war during 1980’s and she said the one who saved my life in war can save us in all situations. Surely, He will deliver us from the terrible situation. But now we’re all fine with our single mother, though we left her because now we’re mature and married with stable families and give back glory and honor to the Almighty God.

God Gave Me A First Class Result
I have a Testimony to Share. Indeed, God has been faithful, and He indeed showed up for Me. I have been praying to God to make a First Class result again.
Just into the exams I had a computer issue with an exam (A 3 unit course) which made me not to finish it. I was very sad and devastated. I cried and was very scared, It was a course I aimed to have an A(or at least a B).
Now at the look of things I can’t say what is going to happen. My greatest fear was having below 50 (Courses below 50 are going go to be reseated for the next year). I prayed, fasted, worshipped.
Long story short the result was released, and I made a C. All hopes were down on me making a first class due to the C. I kept praying and reminding God how he helped me in the past in similar situations, because He is God and He does change.
God showed up.
I checked the last result released and it summed my result to a first Class. God indeed is not a Scam. Hallelujah.
To someone believing for a miracle like mine, don’t lose hope. God is too Faithful to Fail.

Passed Board Exams
By the grace of God, I passed both my boards exams. I put my trust in God and he saw me through. It was not by my own doing or strength.
I failed my first try, I felt let down and disappointed, but God gave me the strength to continue. He made me the head and not the tail. God is always on time!
Sometimes when we experience failure we don’t understand why or feel as if God has let us down. Let me remind you that he is always by our side and will NEVER let us down!! If you are trusting God for a miracle, continue to trust Him. He will SHOW up!

Hepatitis B Healing

After the dream I got better. Went to see my doctor who recommended another test. The new test revealed that l was completely healed. Praise God. Our Lord Jesus Christ is our healer.

Be Still And Know That Am God
Thru God I practiced psalm 46:10 for years and then in 2010 God said to me “evening of primrose oil”. I swallowed a soft gel of this and the pain in my feet of neuropathy stopped. I don’t have foot ulcers anymore either. Thank you, Father God in Jesus Name.

No More Fainting
God delivered me from being sick ever since in my childhood and I used to visit the hospital. And when someone threatens me, I faint and collapse but today am totally delivered and I thank God for my life.
Uganda’s First Lady and Minister of Education and Sports, Janet Museveni, has shared a deeply personal testimony on how faith, pain, and compassion led to the founding of one of Uganda’s earliest faith-inspired orphan care initiatives, the Uganda Women’s Effort to Serve Orphans (UWESO).
Speaking during a recent gathering, Maama Janet reflected on the turbulent years following the National Resistance Movement’s assumption of power in 1986, a period she described as one where “hardly a ray of hope” had begun to shine for the nation after prolonged conflict and displacement.
Just as Uganda was beginning to stabilize, she noted, a new and devastating enemy emerged, HIV and AIDS, spreading rapidly and indiscriminately across communities, claiming the lives of the young and old alike. The epidemic left behind a trail of broken families, with countless orphans, widows, and child-headed households struggling to survive.

The First Lady revealed that witnessing this suffering stirred memories of her own years in exile as a refugee, when she wandered with her four children, uncertain of the future but sustained by faith. Moved to tears, she recounted making a solemn promise to God that she would not remain comfortable while children orphaned by war and disease cried out for care and love.
That spiritual awakening, she said, became the foundation for action.
Guided by prayer and a sense of divine calling, Maama Janet joined hands with other like-minded women, many of whom were themselves returning from exile with limited means, to form UWESO. At a time when resources were scarce and the nation was rebuilding, these women chose sacrificial service over despair.
From its humble beginnings, UWESO grew into a beacon of hope, rescuing, rehabilitating, and providing holistic care to hundreds of vulnerable children. Beyond direct support, the organization went on to establish schools and partner with other institutions to ensure that orphans across the country could access education, stability, and a future rooted in dignity.
For the Christian community, her testimony stands as a reminder that faith expressed through action can transform national tragedy into lasting hope, and that God often uses personal pain as the seed for redemptive service.
FULL TRANSCRIPT — First Lady Maama Janet Museveni on the Inception of UWESO
“Then hardly a ray of hope started to shine on our nation following the establishment of a new administration for the state under the leadership of my husband in 1986.
A new enemy emerged amongst our people in the form of HIV and AIDS.
This enemy spread like wildfire in the dry land.
In the late 1980s and 90s, our country found itself faced with an unseen enemy that was decimating the young and old, the vulnerable and resourceful amongst our people, leaving behind a swathed burden of orphans, widows and child-headed households.
That is the time when my memory took me back to my own years of wandering as a refugee with our four children always in my heart.
With tears running down my face, I promised God at that time that I would not just sit at home and feed my children while the children whose parents had died in war cried for help and care.
It was God waking me up to that memory that helped me to start an organization that would care for orphans.
We call that organization the Uganda Women’s Effort to Serve Orphans.
I say we called it because I did not start that organization alone.
God brought to me other like-minded women with whom we had to hold hands and start to whistle in a very difficult time.
People were just coming back from exile. They had been refugees. They did not have much even for their own families, but they were all determined to do something about those of our people who were suffering.
Today, this organization is proud to have rescued, rehabilitated and provided holistic care to hundreds of orphans.
We did not only work alone by starting a school, but also helped many schools to educate orphans who found wings of shelter and wings of hope under what God was doing through this organization.”
The long-awaited launch of Watoto Church Gayaza–Nakwero has stirred a wave of joy, gratitude, and renewed faith across the community. From leaders to first-time congregants, testimonies poured in as many described the new campus as a divine answer to years of prayer.
For Lydia Gloria Dhamuzungu, Regional Leader for the new campus, the celebration is deeply personal.
“We were encouraged to create micro-sites of 100 people meeting in a home, but we had stubborn faith,” she recalled. “We told Pastor Eddie that we wanted a church. We prayed and believed God for it. Where we are standing now was once full of anthills and shrubs, but today it is a beautiful place of worship. This shows that God does not despise our faith. No matter how big our prayer is, He can answer.”
Members across Gayaza–Nakwero described the new church as a blessing, a homecoming, and a fresh spiritual beginning.
Daniel Tuli shared, “Having the church come closer to us is a blessing. It’s convenient, and I’m excited to spread the Word of God in our community through cell groups. Church is all about celebrating community.”
For Brenda Nalugya, the new campus is a long-desired convenience. “I used to attend Watoto Church Downtown, but now this is nearer – I’m really happy!”
Echoing the excitement, Collin Ssemakula expressed relief at the reduced travel time: “It took me only 10 minutes to get here from Manyanja! Instead of the two hours I used to plan for when driving to Ntinda!”
Couple Brian and Rose Ssebagala said the new location is both closer and more spacious, while Daphine Ataliba praised the impressive turnout: “More people will be reached and discipled. Families are going to be united. This is a big shift in God’s Kingdom.”
The sense of expectation was evident. “I look forward to seeing this church change the community because it will change lives,” said Jesse Mwandara.
For others, the launch fulfilled a long prayer. “What we waited for has finally come,” said Doreen Eleazar. “Those of us who have been attending online now have a home, a church!”
The joy was shared by many, including Jonathan Muwanguzi, who said the day presented “an opportunity to serve the Lord,” and Jennifer Nsubuga, who celebrated no longer needing to travel to Downtown.
Youth ministry leaders were equally energized. “We are excited that God has given us another opportunity to expand our mission as History Makers,” said Jerome Ssenyonjo. “Our goal remains to disciple a bold generation of godly, transformational leaders.”
Adding to the celebration, Sandra Kasoma highlighted the significance of the new campus: “This is our 18th campus. It shows we are growing and expanding as a family. There is so much work ahead – touching those around us with the love of Jesus.”
And for Sam Okalang, the launch was a powerful moment of worship. “It was such a joy to see people sing their hearts out to the Lord through music and dance. We thank God for a campus that has come closer to our community.”
As the doors of Watoto Church Gayaza–Nakwero open, so do new opportunities for ministry, discipleship, and community transformation. For many, the message is clear: God has answered prayer.
It’s been 23 years of walking, living & believing, in Christ Jesus.
It’s been a journey of turbulence & joy, learning, unlearning & relearning. I wouldn’t exchange it for anything. I fall, I get up.
Lately, I have been reminiscing on the day that I surrendered my life to the loving arms of God through His begotten son Jesus Christ by believing in my heart & confessing with my mouth Jesus as the Lord and Savior of my life.
It all started with the lady in this picture, she’s called Pastor Betty. Commonly known in church circles as the woman whom God healed of HIV/AIDS. I bet some of you are going to stop reading at this point, but I suggest you hang in there.
I completed university in 2000 & gave birth to my son the same year. I was living quite a good life. I owned a car, had a business & I was living in a good house in a great neighbourhood courtesy of a generous man. However, my life was empty, there was a void that no amount of money or a seemingly great life could fill & I was becoming anxious to the point that I couldn’t sleep & I didn’t know why.
Pastor Betty
So one day I was driving from Makindye through Nsambya & I saw her. But I was in disbelief because I expected her to be dead. I looked at her from the side mirror, slowed down, and reversed. It wasn’t until I called her name Auntie Bettie & she responded that I realized that indeed she was alive. I met her when I was in senior six & I haven’t seen her since.
Lived with her for a year & in her, I saw the most agonizing pain a human being could go through. She was suffering from HIV, the Herpes Zoster had eaten her back, & she groaned due to the fire she felt in her skin. Her entire body was in pain, she needed to be massaged to ease the pain.
I later joined the university & I never saw her for the next three years, but I heard that she had been taken to the hospital. It was that day at Nsambya Hospital that I was seeing her again. I invited her into the car we drove & parked at the Total fuel station adjacent to Nsambya Hospital & she narrated her journey to recovery.
After a while everyone got tired of her & she damped into Nsambya Hospital. She had no one to take care of her as people gave up on her due to her deteriorating health. It was Born Again Christians, an evangelism group that would go to the hospital weekly to pray for the sick they had mercy on her & took her to Mutundwe Christian Fellowship a ministry led by Pastor Tom Mugerwa.
Ms Susan
The church became her home, she lay in the church as they believed & prayed for her healing & for over a year the church didn’t give up on her. They fed her, clothed her, nursed her, & rehabilitated her. Soon she started making progress. ( She has documentation of her diagnosis in case you’re wondering) She told me about her interactions with the mighty hand of God, the visitation of the Holy Spirit, & the various encounters too wonderful to utter, that left me in awe of this God.
As she narrated I felt this presence & power that shook me to the core of my being. Listening to her endeared me entrance into a world too beautiful for comprehension. When I asked her why she was coming from the hospital, she said God had instructed her to extend the same love of the gospel of Jesus Christ’s healing grace to a dying world where medicine has its limitations. As we parted I couldn’t contain myself.
For days I failed to sleep, I was already anxious, but this time it was different. On the third day, I called her & I said to her that I wanted to meet the Jesus that healed her. She said I needed to give my life to Christ Jesus as the first step & I did at Mutundwe.
For the first time in a long time, I slept like a baby, and I will never cease to glorify the God of Aunty Betty. God has placed Angels along your path, to play a role in your destiny. Jesus is real, salvation is a relationship with Him. Don’t let naysayers fool you.
Make JESUS the choice TODAY! Happy 2024. Cheers.
Susan is the head of communications at the ministry of works and transport
