Recently, 11 families at our Karamoja Homeland Hope Center in Uganda gathered for a 3-day Family Empowerment Program training. They learned how to start businesses, manage money, and keep Christ at the center of their homes.

Some began writing business plans for vegetable gardens and small shops. Others discovered new ways to support their children’s education.

It wasn’t just a training, it was a turning point. Families left inspired, equipped, and ready to build futures filled with dignity and hope.💪

Angelina didn't know if things would ever change.

A mother of three in Katwe, Uganda, her home had become a place of fear. Conflict. Hunger. Physical violence. She remembers clearly the day her face was swollen from being beaten.

That was the day Auntie Mourine and Auntie Goretty, ECM's Karamoja Kampala Hope Center Coordinators, came to the Katwe community and found her.

They sat Angelina and her husband down together. They asked what was happening. Her husband wouldn't open up, but Angelina did. She told them everything.

What happened next changed her life.

Through ECM's Family Empowerment program, Angelina and her husband received counseling, biblical teaching, and training on what a Christ-centered marriage and family could look like. They were encouraged to attend Bible trainings and they kept coming back.

"When they advised us, the family transformed."

Today, Angelina's home is unrecognizable from what it once was. She goes to church faithfully. Her husband joins her. Her business is doing well. Her children are in school. And the violence and conflict that once defined her home? Gone.

"There is nothing again disturbing us. We are really doing well. By the grace of God."

This is the power of showing up. Of asking hard questions. Of sharing the Gospel with families who need it most. Thank you for making this work possible!

What does a matching gift actually build?

Family Empowerment is not a handout. It is a partnership.

Families in the program receive business and financial literacy training, help with record keeping and savings, start up capital for small businesses like retail, farming, catering, and livestock, and ongoing mentoring as those businesses grow. Alongside all of it comes Bible study, prayer, and discipleship, because lasting change begins in the heart before it ever shows up in a ledger.

The goal is not that families keep needing us. The goal is that they no longer do!

A generous foundation has offered a $53,000 match to launch this program in five new communities. Your gift today is doubled, and it goes toward a family standing on their own feet.

Give today and your gift will be doubled! https://ecmafrica.org/project/family-empowerment-2

This is what hope sounds like.

In Kinshasa, Congo, young children are lifting their voices together at the CEFMC Yolo Sud Parish, singing alongside their teachers in an ECM Sunday school choir.

This is the heart of what we do. Through ECM's Sunday school program in the Democratic Republic of Congo, children are growing in faith, community, and joy from the very earliest years of their lives!

"Let everything that has breath praise the Lord." Psalm 150:6 🎼🎶🎵

He cried on the way to Sunday school. Now the whole congregation dances when he plays. 🥁

Seven-year-old Gloire in Congo did not want to go to church. But his parents were patient and kept bringing him to Sunday school at the CEFMC Yolo Sud parish, a Sunday school started by ECM's Sunday school teacher trainers. Week by week, as he heard the Word of God, Gloire's heart softened. Now he goes on his own, sings in the choir beside his father, and plays the cymbals!

His parents are deeply grateful to ECM for the guidance that changed their son's heart.

Thank you for helping children like Gloire hear the Gospel and grow in faith in Congo.

What if the most important thing we could do for a community isn't give them more resources - but help them see themselves differently?

That's the heart of the "Helping Without Hurting in Africa" training that ECM has been investing in deeply with staff in Uganda and Ghana. In this clip, Anthony Sytsma breaks it down simply and powerfully. The goal isn't just food and income. It's seeing people grow in their faith, work with their own hands, use the gifts God has already placed in them, and live as the people God created them to be - not dependent on anyone, but truly free.

As Anthony puts it, this training is more of a mindset change than a curriculum. And ECM International Executive Director Mark Luckey speaks from experience when he says it is fantastic and it is needed.

If you partner with ECM, this is the kind of thoughtful, Christ-centered approach your support is making possible. We don't just want to meet needs. We want to see lives transformed from the inside out. Thank you!

Good morning from Rapid City, South Dakota! Our Development Director, Victoria Peasley, is at the Hold the Rope Summit with our friends at STEER, a group of Christian farmers and ranchers who generously give their resources to support missions.

We’re so grateful to partner with them. Victoria will be hosting an ECM booth and has the opportunity to share about ECM from the stage. Would you join us in praying for great connections, for encouraging conversations, and for hearts to be stirred for children and families in Uganda, Ghana, and Congo?

“Therefore encourage one another and build one another up.” 1 Thessalonians 5:11
