Mathiew stated, “Today, I used the door-to-door method to deliver food. It was a success; however, I was not feeling well with flu and headache all on me due to dust because he was deep in the villages. Yet he was out there blessing God’s people.
Mathiew said, “this elderly man, I found him feeding on avocado and local yams.” The elderly lady named Sylvia was living alone with her two cats. We found her preparing beans, and we blessed her with food.
There are so many stories, way too many even to post. These are only a few. Many locals can not afford rice; even more so, there is no way to buy it locally. Rice can be a real blessing and is considered a special treat in many areas of Uganda; locals are often not allowed to grow gardens as they are renters and don’t own any property. Especially the elderly find it hard to survive, many with no relatives to help out.
JFM feels the pain, we do what we can to help out those in dire need. We thank Jesus for the provision and find it a special privilege to help out.
Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
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.
