Immeasurably More
Our time in Uganda was filled with powerful ministry, deep connections, and life-changing moments. From pastoral training to economic development, every aspect of the trip reflected God’s faithfulness and the strength of our partnership with local leaders.
Celebrating Growth and Learning
A major highlight was the Mobile Bible School graduation, where 29 pastors completed their training. Their joy and dedication were inspiring, and we are already preparing for the next graduating class in 2025.
At the Pastors’ Conference, 69 pastors and their teams gathered under the theme God is Able. Sessions covered topics like biblical preaching, disciple-making, and church planting. The pastors left encouraged and better equipped for their ministry.
Economic Development & Community Outreach
Meeting with the pastors in our economic development program was a moment of great encouragement. We visited their businesses, prayed over their growth, and welcomed five new pastors into the initiative.
We also spent time in homes and the Suubi Medical Clinic, offering prayer, encouragement, and support. One particularly touching visit was with Sister Mary, a 79-year-old woman facing immense challenges but remaining steadfast in faith.
Preaching, Baptisms & Church Ministry
Our team was blessed to preach at six churches and a prison, sharing testimonies, ministering to children, and uplifting congregations. We witnessed 10 baptisms and 20 child dedications, celebrating new life in Christ.
Looking Ahead
Saying goodbye was bittersweet, but we leave knowing that God’s work continues. This trip was a testament to His power to transform lives and communities. Thank you for your prayers and support—please continue to lift up the pastors and their ministries as they partner with God in expanding His Kingdom in Uganda

Meet Pastor Flower
I am Flower Eustine, senior pastor of Isingiro Community Church. I was born into a polygamous family to Catholic parents, the ninth of thirteen children from my mother. Attending school was nearly impossible until God led my parents to migrate from Isingiro District to Mubende District, Uganda. There, He connected me with Africa Renewal Ministries (ARM), which became the foundation of my testimony.
Thirteen years ago, at a student camp, I gave my life to Jesus, and my journey of salvation began. Since then, I have witnessed the Lord work in powerful ways, especially when He called me to be an agent of transformation in the very village where I was born. At the time, I had just graduated from university with a Bachelor’s degree in Child Development. The area was plagued by witchcraft, alcoholism, and drug abuse, and I wrestled with how I, a young woman fresh out of university, could possibly make an impact.
Starting a Church
Through prayer and fasting, God made it clear that I was to start a church in my home village through door-to-door evangelism, crusades, and praying for the sick and oppressed. We soon began witnessing healings and deliverances. With just ten people, we started gathering for fellowship on land that my mother freely donated for the purpose of planting a church. We continued preaching the Good News as the Holy Spirit led us. In March 2019, a group of 40 youth came on a mission trip to help us build a temporary church structure, which we are still using today to shepherd more than 40 families. In January 2025, we baptized nine people and dedicated 15 children to the Lord.
Church Growth and the Birth of a School
As families continued joining the church, the number of children grew, and we soon realized that we were serving a largely illiterate community, especially the children. At the beginning of this year, we felt God leading us to help these children receive an education. We have taken the first step by starting a school on the church property. So far, we have registered 187 children, with 94 currently attending. Many of those who have not yet joined are unable to afford basic school supplies like books and pens.
Thanks to the generosity of partners like you
Pastor Flower Eustine is a part of Expand Uganda’s Support-a-Pastor project, receiving monthly support, biblical education, and pastoral encouragement—thanks to the generosity of partners like you. This support is more than a gift; it is like a mustard seed, small yet full of potential, growing into something far greater than imagined. As Pastor Flower is strengthened in her calling, entire communities are transformed—families find hope, children receive education, and the Gospel takes root in places once marked by darkness. Your support doesn’t just impact one pastor—it changes whole communities.
