Apostle Charlie B. Ammons Confirmation There Is No Love Like ~ Volume 3 Issue 10 ~ Apostle Charlie B. Ammons Confirmation On Sunday evening, October 2, 2016 in the sanctuary of Restoration Christian Church—Virginia, the Apostolic Confirmation & Commissioning affirmed to the Office of Apostle, Charlie B. Ammons. The Chief Consecrator was Apostle Zinera White, Jr., Fruit of the Spirit Ministries, International Apostolic Network. As this ministry moves forward, May the grace of God continue to shine through the leaders that He has called for the Kingdom. God Bless Your Holy Name. There Is No Love Like A Daughters Love Ruth, Gloria and Sophie (Daughters of Bishop James) are truly daughters of Pastor Deborah Freeman, affectionately called Momma Africa. They did all they could to make Momma’s Birthday a memorable one. Momma is wearing a traditional ceremonial dress called a “Gomas” it is primarily worn at weddings and other elite events. Of course we all know that it has to be the color of royalty, PURPLE. Although they may be bought, this was made for her by Women of Worth Bridal Shoppe in Kampala. Mom- ma says, “all of God’s daughters are her daughters” and she loves on them equally. If you are one of the many that she calls daughter, you are loved with the love of God. Continuing The Legacy More than forty years ago a man had a dream of doing something good for his community. He didn't have very much, but what he had was love for his children and others. He came from Tanzania to Uganda and followed the path that God placed him on. Reverend Joseph Mwesigwa Katabaro and his wife Christine Mary Katabaro established a school for children in the community where it was desperately needed. In July of 2015, Reverend Katabaro went home to be with God and seven months later in March of 2016, his wife joined him. They are both smiling down on their son, and daughter-in-law Bigsam Carstine and Malinde Katabaro, they both have taken the mantle of respon- sibility and carrying on in their parents footsteps. The Kawotto Savior's Primary School is located in the town of Kijjansi, Uganda. The school is on two acres of land that is a stones throw away from Entebbe Road. The school provides education to 145 children in the community, 44 are orphaned, 20 of them live on campus and the remaining 24 stay in the Katabaros' home with their chil- dren. Each student and teacher contribute to the quality of education and life at the school by empowering one another. Everyone contributes to the school by means of duties and helping where and when they can to ensure that every person there is respected and receives full benefit of what the school has to offer. Students learn life skills and teachers provide plenty of opportunities for the children to help build character, self-esteem and spiritual growth. Power 104.1 FM Impacting the Community In every community there are leaders and organizations that want to make a difference and help improve the standard of living for its citi- zens. That is what is being done through Power 104.1 FM Radio, the voice of Watoto Church in Kampala, Uganda. Peter Kakuru, Managing Director is dedicated to bringing to the listeners quality and wholesome entertainment along with informative information that will make a positive impact on the city and the nation. Priscilla Nalwoga, Program Coordinator ensures that the delivery of entertainment to the listen- ers is relevant and appealing to all from the business person, the family and government. Brenda, Administrative Director and Godwin, Creative Director add to the management team to make Power 104.1 FM one of the finest Gospel Listening experiences in the nation. ACTNIM has made a commitment to the radio station to partner with them starting in January 2017. One of the first programs in the new year will be on Teens in high schools. As part of the "Bridging The Gap" initiative, and as citizens of the community we are doing what we can. “It’s all about love and caring for one another” The Message of Bridging The Gap is Broadcast on Ugandan Television On Sunday mornings at about 10:15 am Bigsam Katabaro walks into the stu- dio at UBC-TV to broadcast his live Christian Program. On this particular Sun- day he is joined by Pastors Reginald & Deborah Freeman, Founders of A Cross the Nations International Ministries. They are missionaries living in Uganda that are helping people to bridge the gap between Black Americans and Africans. The initiative is "Bridging The Gap", bringing together be- lievers in Christ Jesus, that have been displaced from each other through distance, false information other missed opportunities. Today was an opportunity for the Freemans to speak about what the Lord has commanded them to do. This is only the beginning. There are plans for better communications between Black Americans and Africans as a culture in the future. Restoration, Reconciliation, Transformation and Empowerment are keys to Gods plan for His people. Let us all continue to move forward in the name of Jesus.

Every sector of society is crying out for healthy leaders… those who are mentally and emotionally healthy, morally strong, self-actualized and secure, great listeners, forward thinkers, open and aware, empathetic, not ego-driven but committed to the well-being, develop- ment and wholeness of individuals, institutions, and communities within their sphere of influ- ence. The cry is for leaders who can influence others from a place of humble strength, leading from the heart, while making those of lesser rank a priority. This call is for Servant-Leadership, an upside-down leadership model. A PARADIGM SHIFT: UPSIDE-DOWN LEADERSHIP The servant-leader concept is transforming individuals and organizations as a revolutionary leadership style that leads through serving. It is the opposite of the power leadership model which influences others through intimidation, manipulation and control. As an upside-down model, the servant-leader lays aside a self-serving agenda and focuses on empowering and serving others. According to Robert K. Greenleaf, founder of The Greenleaf Center for Servant-Leadership, the distinguishing characteristic of leadership should be service. He further defines this leadership model as follows - “The servant-leader is servant first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. The leader-first and the servant-first are two extreme types. The difference manifests itself in the care taken by the servant-first to make sure that other people’s highest priority needs are being served. The best test, and difficult to administer, is this: Do those served grow as persons? Do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become servants? And, what is the effect on the least privileged in society? Will they benefit or at least not be further deprived?” Servant-leadership stands sharply in contrast to many traditional leadership models as a new and healthy kind of leadership that affirms and em- powers. The characteristics and attributes of the Servant-Leader are as follows: GENUINE DESIRE TO HELP OTHERS This type of leader has put ego aside, and places the people first.

  • The University of Bergen Grieg Academy-Department of Music Master's Thesis in Ethnomusicology Pentecostal Music in Kampala, U
    THE UNIVERSITY OF BERGEN GRIEG ACADEMY-DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC MASTER’S THESIS IN ETHNOMUSICOLOGY PENTECOSTAL MUSIC IN KAMPALA, UGANDA: Exploring the Reciprocal Relationship between Sacred and Secular Popular Music DAVID BASOGA (188546) ii DEDICATION To my dear wife Justine Basoga iii Abstract In this study, I explore particular aspects in which the relationship between Pentecostal music and secular music has become prominent in Kampala, Uganda. Particularly, I examine how Pentecostal music artists have drawn inspirations from secular popular music scene particularly in the style of singing, dance movement, recording, marketing and the general performance context. The study examines the nature of Pentecostal music introduced by the European missionaries, the process of making Pentecostal music, and tries to establish the factors responsible for the similarities between Pentecostal music and secular popular music. The study seeks to find out the meaning and significance of the changing Pentecostal music to a popular style. It also traces the origin and growth of Pentecostalism and its sacred music, focusing on how this sacred music has changed over time specifically in Uganda. This ethnographic study has been developed using research findings, literature related to Pentecostal movements in Uganda and Pentecostalism in general, Pentecostal music and the secularization and sacralization processes. The study indentifies the actors of Pentecostal music and examines the artistic role each plays. In this study, I also outline a number of factors responsible for this emerging genre among them prayer, evangelization, income earning, entertainment, music awards together with the health and economic problems experienced by ordinary Ugandans as some of the issues addressed by Pentecostal music lyrics.

    Business Administration Degree Project Grow your business for God. Exploring entrepreneurship in the Pentecostal churches in Uganda. Author: Tom Akuma Supervisor: Frederic Bill Examiner: Malin Tillmar Academic term: VT18 Subject: Business Administration Level: Masters Course code: 5FE06E Abstract Pentecostalism has grown from its founding days in 1900 in Topeka, USA and has extended its reach to most parts the world including Africa where it took off in the 1970s and continues to grow with many mega churches being established. In addition to their main role of taking care of the spiritual development of their followers, many Pentecostal churches have begun to get involved in provision of social and economic goods and services. This has however attracted attention to the churches with some of them being labelled as businesses, their founders being considered as entrepreneurs hiding under the guise of churches and seen as exploiting their followers The purpose of the thesis is to explore, through research questions, if entrepreneurial activities are carried out in the Pentecostal churches in Uganda and if so, whether such activities can be considered productive, unproductive or destructive entrepreneurship and what their implications are. This qualitative study employed qualitative methods of data collection and deductive approach with primary data collected through semi-structured interviews with 6 members of Pentecostal churches in Kampala and 1 non-member that regularly goes to Pentecostal churches to get a feel of their activities. The findings show that there the Pentecostal churches carryout a number of entrepreneurial activities that address spiritual, social and economic aspects of the church members and the community.

  • Being Pentecostal in Kampala, Uganda
    Transforming Futures? Being Pentecostal in Kampala, Uganda Sophie Elizabeth Bremner A thesis submitted to the School of International Development at the University of East Anglia in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. University of East Anglia School of International Development February 2013 Word count: 82,415 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. ABSTRACT Pentecostal Christianity has gained many followers in the developing world, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Despite a corpus of anthropological scholarship on the impact of following Pentecostalism on identities and social change, less has been written from the perspective of the believer, and little from within the field of development studies. In this thesis, which is based on 14months of research in Kampala, Uganda, I explore how followers of this religion appropriate a discourse of prosperity and blessings, and how they utilise certain religious practices and relationships that are forged from the Pentecostal community in their efforts to mediate their futures and ‘move on up’ from a state of poverty. In particular, I discuss whether these practices and relationships can be seen as engendering transformative agency for these individuals. In doing so, I explore three themes that were prevalent in my data analysis: an everyday non-ecstatic speech act which is called ‘positive confessions’, ways of understanding poverty and dealing with situations of injustice, and patronage relationships between more wealthy and poorer members of the Pentecostal community.

    THIS WEEK IN AG HISTORY SUNDAY, AUGUST 26, 2018 BY GLENN W. GOHR Fifty years ago this week the Assemblies of God released a book called The Wellsprings of the Pentecostal Movement. The author, A COLLECTION OF THIS WEEK’S STORIES FROM NEWS.AG.ORG David Womack, compared the Pentecostal movement to a tree, carefully examining the deep roots of Pentecostalism. Womack saw the tree today threatened by two grave dangers — people with a limited knowledge of Church history and people who have been overinfluenced by non- Pentecostal concepts. He declared “The most dangerous problems facing the Pentecostal Movement are not those of external forces … but the slow decay from whole Church.” Womack collaborated within.” He stressed that if Jesus and with the Committee on Advance to His apostles intended for the New evaluate the life and role of the church.
