We serve pygmies, refugees, and all other people who are far from society’s reach.
We delight in ministering to pygmies and refugees. They are people on the outskirts of life, wellness, and prosperity. They are people whose plight is usually forgotten by us. They are people like us whom we ought to remember and help.
Most ministries are based in towns. They are mainly city-oriented, not because of lack of resources but because people lack the passion to minister to and serve these particular groups of people.
Through the Light of the World Evangelical Church, He Is Like Me does what we call compassionate evangelism.
We follow the teaching of James, which emphasizes that the good news must be accompanied by meeting the physical needs of the people.
We understand that the gospel is enough by itself to make Jesus Christ known. But by meeting some people’s needs, we spread the mercy and goodness of Jesus Christ as we share his love to them.
Join us as we change lives and allow God to use you to give these people the hope and future they desire.
Reaching Pygmies in the Bush
The Pygmies are a forgotten group of people living in the bush, forests, hills, and outskirts of DR Congo, Rwanda, Burundi, and Uganda. They still live (survive) by hunting and making pottery.
God is looking for a person with the heart and mind of God, full of the Holy Spirit, to be the hands and legs that he uses to meet these people and change their lives.
Our call is to break the societal barriers, go deep into these separated communities, preach to them, encourage them, and meet their physical needs.
Refugees Ministry
Through LWEC, we minister to refugees in Uganda Refugee Settlements and urban refugees from different nations surrounding Uganda. Uganda is home to many displaced people from DR Congo, South Sudan, and Rwanda.
We have been active in the Rwamwanja Refugee Settlement for six years. We have planted churches in the refugee settlements have built a bible training center to equip and build the capacity of church leaders. We also hold classes for the orphans.
Besides asylum, these refugees have other needs (both physical and spiritual).
