JFM is a big deal right now in the communities; when we appear, we wipe away tears, we step on hunger, and when we leave, we leave people with hope, love, encouragement, and the good news of Jesus Christ.
What a turnaround, what a history JFM is making. But, we can’t express well enough that It’s only through Jesus that allows us to do that which we are doing. According to many locals here, no one in this area has ever come close to what we do, JFM is a big deal in Uganda. That is what the locals are saying, but we say Jesus is indeed the big deal, feeding the hungry, and giving hope to the hopeless. Our donors, for the most part, have no idea how much it is helping so many locals here in Uganda. Saying we appreciate and thank you are merely weak expressions of how thankful we are. You, our beloved donors are a big deal to us here at JFM; without you, we can do very little. You are a really big deal of difference in so many lives.
The truth is, we are only skimming the surface in Uganda. We are making considerable strides in the areas that we are touching, but with God’s help, we will be able to reach even further. Pray for discernment for us, we need God’s grace every single day.
William J. Wegener (Bill) is the founder and director of JesusFedMe.com, a ministry with a simple yet powerful mission: to feed the hungry, share the gospel of JESUS CHRIST, and transform lives in Uganda. Bill believes that meeting both physical and spiritual needs is the best way to reflect the love of GOD, and through JFM, countless lives have been touched.
Under his leadership, JesusFedMe.com has:
Delivered food daily to poor families and orphans. | Dug wells to provide clean water to villages. | Built homes and resource centers for struggling communities. |. Established the Miracle Medical Center (MMC) in Nakaseke District, providing medical care where none was available. |. Launched the CVTI Skilling Center, offering vocational training and hope for the future.
Bill’s heart for the poor flows from the words of JESUS in Matthew 25:35: “For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in.” He often says that every bag of rice delivered, every child clothed, and every prayer offered is a reminder that GOD’s love is real and practical.
None of this would be possible without faithful donors who give generously. Bill sees himself not just as a director, but as a steward—ensuring that every dollar makes a difference in feeding the hungry and leading souls to CHRIST. His vision is to see communities in Uganda transformed, both physically and spiritually, through the power of the gospel and the kindness of those who support the work.
