To get people who have compassion and we work together for this sponsorship of Children and support of widows plus Church planting in Africa Uganda.
I'm passionate about...
We currently have a database of 500 children in our organization that need regular monthly support. 15 in our new orphanage
One of our intended goals with the children is to identify the orphans that are in great need and require immediate action. We seek out the community for the immediate relatives that are still living; it can be an Uncle, an Aunt, a Cousin... we evaluate the situation, find out what the relatives think is best for the child before any action is taken. Together with the relative's input and taking in consideration the child's preference, we decide whether this child is able to live with the relative. Another option would be for a widow or suitable family that are willing to adopt a child. The child will re-locate to their home and they will then become the guardian and will be responsible for training/guiding the child.
Many times when a parent is sick and dying from AIDS/HIV, the oldest child becomes the parent. They are no longer able to go to school and must care for the dying parent as well as work and take care of the younger siblings. This in most cases is the standard for living in Uganda.
Please Pray for Pastor Fred Mwanje and his mission to rescue the orphans and street kids of Uganda. Young and old alike find themselves with no place to sleep but the streets. This baby has a wound on her head, yet no one stops..why?? because there are so many and not enough help to rescue them all. Please prayerfully consider giving GIDCCO the means to help as many as God will allow. No child should live this way.
My story with God
I ma new now in Him.
Other stuff about me:
GIDCCO is an independent, indigenous, NGO registration Number certificate S.5914/7195 F
organization in Uganda with a vision to rescue, nourish, and spiritually strengthen street kids, orphaned children, and widows in need as a result of AIDS/HIV.
By sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and with the help of religious leaders, our community, and volunteers, we strive to uphold the sanctity of human life by meeting their spiritual, physical, and emotional needs through education, health care, and social welfare.
Today, much of Uganda remains undeveloped. It's populace is ravaged by civil wars, hunger and the AIDS/HIV epidemic that continues its foray into every village.
Currently, 80% of the overall population of Uganda is youth, of the 80%, 39% are orphans, and 41% are infected with HIV/AIDS. 62% of the villages that we reach out to, have the highest population level of AIDS/HIV. Through Gods word and His will, we seek to bring hope and a future to this generation of parentless children.
Our organization for community development can have a great impact on the lives of the people it serves, given proper funding.
Even though we are a private charity organization, we are registered with the Ugandan government. If you need more information on this site, or if you would like to help please contact

The Children of GIDCCO
"Let the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these." Mark 10:14 Please Pray for Pastor Fred Mwanje and his mission to rescue the orphans and street kids of Uganda. Young and old alike find themselves with no place to sleep but the streets. This baby has a wound on her head, yet no one stops..why?? because there are so many and not enough help to rescue them all. Please prayerfully consider giving GIDCCO the means to help as many as God will allow. No child should live this way.
..
Many have lived in fear of the Lords Resistance Army, walking many miles in the night seeking refuge and shelter.
This video is very graphic and may be disturbing, but is a real issue in the lives of the Ugandan children. Although Jinja is not currently in the midst of this terrible atrocity, many carry the scars of witnessing as well as lving the abuse.
Your Donations mean so much to us! We are able to provide Bibles, cleaning supplies, school supplies and much more! Even more importantly is the Hope that you provide to a child or a widow. A Hope that there is a God that loves them and cares about them.
$25.00 per month, the amount most families spend on a single dinner, will send one of these orphaned children to school and provide them with food, clothing and other essential needs for a month. The children and widows of Uganda need your contributions, act now in any way possible. No amount is too small. Here the website for more information www.gidcco.org
Widows make up a large part of our community as well.Here they demonstrate basket weaving to the volunteers.
Meet some of our volunteers visiting us July 2007. Ashley,Alice,Stephanie, Melissa & Allie. We're so very blessed to have them teach the children & widows. If you would like to volunteer, contact me.
Scott Ingram and Micah volunteer July 2007. God is using them to teach His word to many people. Visit Scott's profile and read his Ugandan Updates SCOTT INGRAM
Scott was with us to pass out blankets to the needy children. Unfortunately there weren't enough blankets to go around and we had to draw from the neediest of the children present.
You can help by sending a donation or blanket . GIDCCO welcomes all books. Please donate a book for a child or widow today! We especially need your old Bibles..how can we reach the lost if they cannot read the word of God for themselves. Please consider donating your new or used Bibles. Mail them to: Hope Missionary Baptist Church C/O GIDCCO P.O. Box 5164 Jinja, Uganda
"The LORD is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him." Exodus 15:2 Children singing and praising the One and Only living God!

I just had to send you a picture of Niagara falls / Horseshoe falls/ Canadian side. This is on;y a fifteen minute ride in the car form St Catharines Ontario/Canada where I live ! No matter what they say with recently changing what the 7 wonders of the world are: Niagara Falls will always be a wonder to people who travel from all over the world and stand in awe at the first sight of it! I'll send a pic. of the Falls lit up at night.

Nice to finally get back to you. I'm so sorry that it has taken so long bro. but I've been very busy typing out 50 poems, over 20 short stories as well as scripture on the bottom of a lot of the poems as a wee bible study for people that time has flown! POETIC TREASURES will soon be out there and i want a percentage of the proceeds once the cost of the production of the book to go to help many people in need in my country Canada, the United States of America as well as to orphanages, the elderly etc. I promise that i will not forget my brother's and sisters that I have met on All About God, Unite Together and on THE INK WELL site that I am on who are in ministry and in need of funds. This is a promise that i made to the Lord well over 25 years ago, as i wrote and wrote, sang and grew from a wish wash Christian, - with eating up the Word of God, finally making Jesus the Lord of my life, not just savior. The cover to my book is being illustrated now by the same illustrator that Don Parker has on this ALL ABOUT GOD site. He has been so blessed to be able to have Aidana Willow Raven as the illustrator as she loves the Lord and is very gifted as an artist. I thank God that somehow, I ended up with her too all because of Michelle Reed who is my sister in the lord that i became close friends with on THE INK WELL.ning site that she started! I love her so much I just don't even have enough words to express everything about this wonderful younger sister of mine. It is all becuase of her words of love and encouragement about my writing that the ball got rolling and for this I just praise the Lord all the time! Michelle is from Jamaica but grew up in England and you can see a family picture of her on the recent pictures I just added tonight on All About God. The picture of Michelle is in England where she went to visit her loved ones just a month ago, if that. I'm so glad that she got to go away on a holiday as this fine woman of God does so much for so many people! Oh, ... I just can't say enough about her eh? < LOL I told ya! Anway, Jesus Christ will be given all the glory when my book is soon published as it is He who blessed me with all of the poems as far back as 30 years ago and on: POETIC TREASURES. My loved ones are doing fairly well but things could be better so don't stop praying as I know you do. I'll of course keep right on praying for you and your loved ones as well as for your ministry.
God bless you my beloved brother way over in your land!
Pastor Fred,
It has been so long since I checked in. So sorry dear friend. So much has been going on. But thorugh it all I can see that God is working in ways since I last chatted with you. Way more than I will bore you with. To summarize God is good and as long as you let Him lead great things will happen.
Please keep me updated as to your work. I love praying for other believes who are doing God's work. I may never get to your part of the world in my physical body, but we can still cherish a spiritual connection,
God Bless, dear friend.

Hello Pastor Fred
Thanks for chosing me as a friend. Bless you and the work you are doing, I do realize there is such a great need there. I support a mission in Malawi that our church runs and the children especially need so much help. We have built a school and other buildings in our community there and I am hoping that I can find the resources to go on our annual mission trip there.
I pray that your work will give much needed relief to those in your influence.
Blessings, Allan
