Impact Child Care Center
Impact Ministries, currently works with 500 children who are orphaned by HIV/AIDS or civil unrest. 325 children are residing in our child care center, while the rest either go back to guardians or just in the streets. We offer meals, school uniforms, stationery, and medical care to all the children. We have established a primary school with 7 classes, and 13 teachers. We have two matrons and a nurse to look after the children. We are inviting you to embark on a personal relationship with a child who needs your support and encouragement. By sponsoring a child in the name of Jesus Christ you will bring hope and true spiritual light where once there was only despair, poverty and oppression.
EASTER 2012
“But You, O God, do see trouble and grief; You consider it to take it in hand. The victim commits himself to You; You are the helper of the fatherless” (Psalm 10:14)
As Easter approaches we are reminded of the importance of this time when the death and coming to life again of Jesus is recognized. At this time as we remember that we have been redeemed through Christ’s blood, which was shed for our sins .
During Easter children in our orphanage are fed, and the Gospel message is creatively presented through music, singing, drama, Bible lessons. By God’s grace, hundreds of children have surrendered their hearts and lives to their Savior.
It is a time to demonstrate God’s love to children whose lives are difficult. Hunger gnaws at them . . . fear haunts them . . . life seems hopeless. God’s arm is not shortened. But is ours? Are we willing to be the “hands and feet” of Jesus reaching out to provide for abandoned children?
Your continued support to our child care efforts provides each child not only physical food—but an opportunity to know Jesus—determining where he or she spends eternity. The food, clothing, medical care and education the children receive in the orphanage become an evangelistic bridge to otherwise forgotten children. Motivated by God’s love for children, we continue to carry on with the ministry amidst many challenges. With the Lord’s constant presence we will meet and overcome all challenges as the children continue to be rescued and given shelter in the orphanage.
We continue to pray for everyone involved in this ministry daily. If you are led to assist us please go a head and make a contribution toward the operations of Impact Uganda orphanage so we can continue to take care of the children.
May your service to the Lord be steadfast and your joy be complete in Him.
May you all experience the Resurrection power of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Serving with you only by His grace,
Pastor Patrick Okabe

CHRISTMAS CHILDREN'S PARTY 2011
Dear Mission Partners, Christmas 2011 at Impact Child Care Orphanage was celebrated with a lot of joy. The children ate and drank sodas and fruit juice drinks, and had lots of fun. Different groups performed Drama depicting the story of the birth of Jesus, they watched Jesus’ film, and truly celebrated the birth of Jesus. After celebrations, the children received Christmas gifts of toys and candy. My wife Christine cut the Christmas cake with the children to an amazing shout of joy from the children who were all gathered in our church hall. It was a great Christmas experience for the children who couldn’t have had that day if they were still leaving in the streets, slums and poor villages as orphans and needy children. Baby Moses the youngest of the children who was left with us in the orphanage had his first Christmas party. In the photos attached, he can be seen with Grace, the maid who is responsible for him in the orphanage. We couldn’t have had such a great Children’s Christmas party in the orphanage without your help! Thank you. Impact Ministries Uganda is committed to the passion for God and Compassion for God’s people. We are planting churches around the country of Uganda and helping orphans and needy children with shelter, food, clothing, medical care and education. Thank you for being our mission partners in the year 2011. We look forward to a continued partnership with you in 2012 and the future and we preach the life changing Gospel of Jesus Christ in Word and action. Maid Grace and Baby Moses
Moses was left by his mother in our church. we estimated his age at 10 month old and we gave him the name Moses. He is now kept in the orphanage and looked after by maid Grace
Breakfast
The children receive three meals a day. porridge starts the day. The main meals are maize meal and beans.
Mosquito nets for children
