You Are Not Forgotten: Kasese Outreach Trip
I want to share something important that I experienced recently after receiving an invitation from a friend.
She invited me to visit her and see where she and others are living. When I arrived, I learned about a painful history in Kasese, where years ago the Nyamwamba River flooded and destroyed homes, property, and sadly took many lives.
Those who survived lost everything. Some were taken in by relatives, while others were placed in a camp where they are still living today. Life there is very difficult, and I was told that support comes only occasionally, such as 50kg of posho and 20kg of beans every six months, which is not enough for daily survival.
But in the middle of this hardship, I also felt called to share something deeper—the good news of hope, love, and God’s care for every human being. The message I shared with them is that no matter how painful the past has been, their lives still have value, purpose, and dignity.
The good news is that God has not forgotten them. They are not abandoned, and there is still hope for healing, restoration, and a better future. Even in difficult conditions, we are called to love one another, support those in need, and bring encouragement to the brokenhearted.
This experience reminded me that sharing the good news is not only about words, but also about showing love through action—helping, caring, and standing with those who are suffering.
Let us remember them, pray for them, and do what we can to bring hope into their lives.
You Are a Child of a Loving God, and You Matter.
