Uganda Bible Project is dedicated to giving Bibles to all in Uganda who yearn to read and study God’s Word, but lack access or the means to get a Bible. God’s Word in the hands of the people is a simple, yet powerful tool that is bringing transformation to individuals, families, and communities. UBP distributes Bibles through established, ongoing partnerships with local ministries and churches in Uganda who demonstrate a commitment to outreach and discipleship. Just $6 buys a Bible for someone in Uganda with 100% of all donations going directly to the purchase of Bibles. |

notesDavid, Conzesa, and Harriet
After picking up over 200 more Bibles this week it wasn’t long before more university students came to us in need. David, Harriet, and Conzesa came to the church office of United Faith Chapel across from the campus of Kampala International University because they had heard that they may be able to get a Bible. They are all new believers. I sat down to talk with them as they passed around a pen and each printed their name in the front cover of their first Bible.
David shared with me some of his story. He had accepted Christ two weeks ago, and then in turn shared his new found faith with his friends Harriet and Conzesa. They didn’t have a home church yet, and didn’t know anything about United Faith Chapel. However, they had heard that they could get a Bible at the small building across from campus that serves as the church office, affectionately called the Palace.
The amazing thing about David, Harriet, and Conzesa’s story is that they came to the Palace not knowing anything about United Faith Chapel. Yet, we were able to offer them more than just Bibles. We were able to build relationships, tell them about all the events the church offers throughout the week, and invite them to join our community.
