Feeding the hungry and sharing Jesus' love in Uganda

How it started

One night, God gave Bill Wegener a dream: start a ministry called Jesus Fed Me. The assignment was specific. Hire a Ugandan friend named Mathiew, and send him out with a box of food for someone living in poverty who had never asked for help and had no reason to expect it.

There was one more instruction, and it became the heart of the ministry. When the person receiving the food asked who had sent it, Mathiew was to say only, “I am just the delivery guy. Jesus sent it.” He was not to give the founder's name or the ministry's name. This delivery belonged to Jesus.

Imagine a parent wondering what the children will eat, and then someone arriving at the door with food for the family. Before a single meal is prepared, that box can bring a little relief and a reason to smile. Scripture gives that moment its lasting weight: “For I was an hungred, and ye gave me food.” (Matthew 25:35).

That dream became Jesus Fed Me's calling. Bill had a part to play, Mathiew had food to carry, and generous people made those deliveries possible. Every donor who gives today becomes part of that same act. They may never stand at the doorway or meet the family they helped feed, but their kindness reaches all the way there. A box of food, a willing heart, and a few words that give God the glory: “Jesus sent it.”

The mission

Five Missions, Run as One

Jesus Fed Me focuses on two major things: feeding the physically and spiritually hungry in Uganda, and sharing the Gospel of Christ. The people it serves are the ones with the least margin: the elderly, the disabled, single mothers, and children without food, clothing, or a roof that holds.

Each food package is a doorway. It tells a family they are seen. As the "fishing for men" ministry puts it: "The Food is the Hook, the Gospel is the Food." God's love is more than words here; it is something that arrives at the door.

The work has expanded over time into medical care we started called Miracle Medical Center, school sponsorship, a children's school, a nursery, and regular visits to elderly people who would otherwise see no one at all.

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.Matthew 25:35

Who runs it, and from where

Jesus Fed Me is a program of Kingdom Advance Global Ministries, Inc., a nonprofit corporation registered in the State of Texas. Bill Wegener founded it and runs it from the Dallas, Texas area, United States.

Mathiew Saba directs the fieldwork in Uganda and writes the majority of what you read on this site. Dr William Kirembwe runs Miracle Medical Center and reports from it. Ignatious Sseremba has a church and runs a school teaching young adults trades. Between the three of them, they have written more than half of this archive. Tom Kigozi is the director at Nazareth Children's School.

This is a small organization, run day to day by five people across two countries.

    Bill founded Jesus Fed Me in 2021, after a dream gave him the ministry's assignment: send food to families in Uganda in Jesus' name, not his own.

    Mathiew runs the deliveries and writes most of what is published here. When a report says the team sat with a widow in Nakagga and prayed before handing over the food, Mathiew is the one who was sitting there.

    Bill's summary of him is short: Mathiew does a fantastic job ministering to these people, and we are willing to do what it takes to make that happen.

    At Nazareth School in Uganda, children gather around a shared meal, and their laughter reminds us of what your generosity makes possible.

    Through your faithful giving, JesusFedMe provides nourishing food and shares the Gospel of JESUS CHRIST, caring for both hungry bodies and precious souls. Each plate carries a message we want every child to know: you are loved, you matter, and you have not been forgotten.

    JESUS said, “For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat” (Matthew 25:35, KJV). Thank you for putting those words into action and allowing GOD’s love to reach these children through your kindness.

    His heart is to reach people and communities with Christ's message, especially those who are struggling, forgotten, or living without hope. Through seminars, conferences, church gatherings, and evangelistic outreaches, he teaches and encourages people—especially the youth—to remain faithful to Jesus Christ, even when life becomes difficult.

    He reaches out to elderly people who are struggling to survive and helps provide food and care. His ministry also supports communities that need clean, safe water.

    This is more than a ministry—it is a calling to serve, love, restore hope, and bring people closer to Jesus Christ. “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” — Mark 16:15
