School Vacation August 2022 – Students Activities
During the month of August, three activities were provided to help our Secondary students stay busy.
On 8/23 another “Leather Book Making” event was held. The students came together to help make notebooks for themselves to use as they return to school in September. Additional notebooks were made to sell, thus coving all expenses and creating seeder funds for the next event.
On 8/25 a “Leadership Training Program” was hosted by MCC Kampala for all local leaders. Our Secondary students were invited and many attended this event.
Objectives included:
- The meaning of leadership
- How people become leaders
- The making of a leader
Also, we were able to support one of our Secondary students in an Advance Computer Training class. Computers and English are the some of the most required skills need for students who graduate in securing employment.
The best gift an African child can receive is an education.
In January 2021 MCC Kampala and Church of the Trinity MCC joined into a partnership called “Follow a Star Find a Child”. This partnership is in support of our local MCC Kampala children, by helping on a monthly basis to purchase much needed HIV medication, other needed medications, nutritious foods as well as other routine needs. We are blessed by this partnership. If anyone is interested in becoming a supporter, please feel free to contact us via this website or our Facebook page “MCC Kampala – TLAYF”.
Below are listed an update for the second year, 2022 as we continue this partnership. We welcome any additional funds that may be offered. The world economy is taking a toll on the funds now available for this much needed project.

Clinics

Other Healthcare Clinics (OHC)
On February 3rd, 2022 MCC Kampala was able to host its first VCT (Voluntary, Counseling and Testing) for the HIV virus. This testing was offered to our members and local community, Free of Charge, due to the generous donation of our sister church MCC Portland, located in Portland Oregon USA. This was our first free testing in over two years.
On this day ninety-two (92) people were tested ranging in age from three (3) to fifty-six (56) years old.
Outcomes from the test were as noted:
Number of tests done = 92
Number of males = 47
Number of females = 45
Number of positive tests = 15
Number of negative tests = 77
All clients who tested positive were counseled on results, given their results and provided support in finding a provider to help in prescribing medication. MCC Kampala Liberty Medical Center assisted in helping those, who were unable to read or write, to fill out information at local hospitals and clinic so correct care could be guaranteed.
Our prayers at this time are to get back to our pre-covid status of offering locally three (3) Free VCT testing per year. If any person, groups or organization would be willing to host an event a donation of $500.00 USD (1804055/= UGX) would cover all expenses.
Moving forward wherever God Leads.

This is done through; 1: nutritional support through health education and provision of some food stuffs. 2.Medical support treatment. 3.Psycho social support through guidance and counseling AND sharing spiritual word of God.
However, there are more children who need the same support from us but our supplies are not enough. Thanks to everyone who is supporting us to do this work, may God bless you abundantly.
