One Day of Food Delivery / Three Weeks of Food Security
It is not a secret that most Ugandans are facing their worst at the moment, as many are going hungry. Today we visited four families who were desperate and hopeless. One granny made fun of us when she was asked if we should give her food. In her understanding, she thought we wanted food from her. She said ” I cannot give you food; see how dry my kitchen is” Well, each day matters; each day we deliver food counts and impacts positively on the lives of people.
“My grandkids ask me for food, and yet I can neither provide nor steal it for them. “I am too old to become a thief.” This desperate situation made her shed tears admitted Harriet, a 67 old year resident who cares for four grandkids. Each morning, it is a worrying moment as every time they get food, it is shared with neighbors who face the same difficulties.
When JFM visits, there is an improvement, and at each house, we visit, generally, up to three weeks of food adds additional security to the family.
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.
