In Uganda, countless families wake up each day wondering if there will be food for their children. Hunger is a constant shadow, and hope can feel like a distant dream. Yet, in the midst of their struggle, GOD has given us a calling—to step into “such a time as this” and bring both physical nourishment and the Bread of Life. As Esther 4:14 reminds us, “and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” We believe this moment is no accident. GOD has placed us here to meet the needs of the poor and to share His love in word and deed.
When we bring rice to the hungry, their faces light up with gratitude. But even more, when we open the Word of GOD and share the gospel, we see lives changed forever. A bag of rice can fill a stomach, but the message of Jesus Christ fills the soul. As Jesus said in John 6:35, “I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger.” Our mission is to see the poorest of the poor not only fed but also transformed by the saving power of JESUS.
This work is only possible through the generosity of faithful donors. Every gift of love helps us put food in the hands of the hungry and the gospel in the hearts of the lost. Together, we are bringing hope, change, and eternal life to those who need it most—for such a time as this.
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.
