Elder Juma was Among the Beneficiaries Who Received Food
The 68-year-old Juma, who lives in a small pitiful, stated house, was one of the beneficiaries of JFM. Juma, who no longer can afford heavy work due to age and care for himself, scooped rice which will see him smiling for the next couple of weeks. When JFM stormed the village, about 16 sixteen families minus older persons were under surviving on poor food rations. Residents fear that hunger will likely stretch further with continued heavy sunshine. Juma lives under a makeshift structure, which is not a safe place, but better than living outside.
We can’t leave this matter of going to bed without food unattended because we know how it feels to go without food. But unfortunately, the sad part of elder Juan’s life is that he has no relatives, but JFM is a relative to those with no family members, especially in times like this.
Thank you, donors, who make this happen. We are giving hope to thousands.
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.
