PROJECT GULU-FAMILY CARE, UGANDA: The Family Care Uganda (FCU) school and orphanage in Gulu, Uganda, was established in 2013. Since its founding, FCU students have consistently earned top grades in the non-municipal district. The majority of these children come from extremely challenging backgrounds. The Lords Resistance Army (LRA) severely affected the Gulu area, and a large percentage of the population are returnees from the LRA conflict. Many of the adults still suffer from PTSD, and the children have not always been raised in safe or nurturing environments. Most arrive at the school speaking little to no English, yet they consistently achieve excellent academic results and go on to succeed in secondary school.FCU has also welcomed students from the remote Ik community. Many of these children have since qualified as nurses, medical technicians, agriculturalists, and business professionals. We continue to receive new Ik children each year, thanks to the support of Honorable Lokwang Hilary, Member of Parliament, who funds transportation to bring the Ik pupils to Gulu for us to sponsor, educate, and care for.Additionally, FCU serves children from the South Sudanese Nuer refugee camps. Some of the Lost Boys who walked from Bor, through South Sudan during the war, and later settled in the West, appealed to us to help refugee youth here. Many of these South Sudanese pupils are older due to the complete lack of schooling during the war years. However, they have proven to be especially well-behaved, hardworking, and eager to succeed, now that they have been given this opportunity. GLORY MINISTRIES, ANDHRA PRADESH, INDIAIn 2024, Activated Ministries began supporting and partnering with Glory Ministries in Andhra Pradesh, India, a multifaceted outreach dedicated to meeting the physical and spiritual needs of vulnerable communities. This program provides regular meals for hungry and orphaned children, educational and material support for children living in poverty, and care for widows and individuals living with disabilities, including those who are deaf or mute. Glory Ministries also extends compassion to those affected by leprosy and equips local pastors and leaders through mission training programs aimed at strengthening the church in rural villages. Through this partnership, we are helping bring hope and practical aid to some of Indias most underserved populations.

GOSPEL OUTREACH: In 2024, we made the decision to re-launch The Wine Press magazine, a faith-building publication designed to encourage and spiritually strengthen believers around the world. This magazine serves as a source of biblical teaching, personal testimonies, and practical insights to support readers in deepening their walk with Christ. In addition to the magazine relaunch, we began development on three new websites to expand our digital outreach. One will serve as the online platform for The Wine Press, making current and archived issues easily accessible. A second site will focus on helping individuals grow in their personal relationship with Jesus through devotionals, study guides, and discipleship resources. The third will offer free printable gospel tracts to support evangelism efforts in both local and global communities. These initiatives reflect our continued commitment to spreading the message of the Gospel and equipping believers in their spiritual journey. In 2024, we decided to re-launch the Wine Press magazine, which is a feeding magazine to help encourage believers and strengthen their faith.
