While I was in Africa in 2022, God really touched my heart. I prayed about it and God gave me the scripture: "Pure religion and undefiled before God and The Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world." (James 1:27).
God spoke to me through a dream and He gave me the Ministry "Five Loaves". So when I came back from Africa we started this sister ministry under the Fishers Of Men Halifax Ministry.
What God was speaking through me, is people are so focused on discipleship, healing the sick, casting out demons and doing all these amazing things which are very good. But there is not a lot of focus on the other side of it, which is helping the poor, fatherless, widows, visiting those in prison etc. So we still will be making disciples, casting out demons, deliverances, healing the sick, training people to do all these things etc. but also we will be focusing now on helping the poor, widows, orphans etc.
We did it in the background and we didn't want to advertise it as the Bible says: Don't let the right hand know what the left hand is doing. So we are not doing this to promote ourselves and get pride in what we are doing. But so that we can raise more funds for these poor people. In our strength we can do nothing, we can't do it on our own but with God, we can do so much! So please let us know if God lays on your heart to support this cause. We are the hands and feet of Jesus and are called to help the poor, orphans and widows.
The people with who we are working in Africa are the people who we personally met and we know and we trust them. There are quite a few different people. We also started a church in Uganda and we are in contact with them all the time, supporting them and teaching them. We also are working with pastor Eyalu Selan and doing great work with the orphans and widows. Getting the orphans in the school, helping with the healthcare needs of widows and orphans and most importantly - helping to spread the gospel. We are also supporting our Sister in Christ Ester who has 150 street children and she is feeding hundreds of children every single week. you can watch her testimony here: https://youtu.be/tDcFq5fEdws
I went to Uganda, Africa in 2022 together with other Disciples. While we were there, we did a lot of work there with orphans, and widows, also in prisons. We did the best we could at that time. This year, we were hoping to go again, but, unfortunately, plans had changed as we have some difficult times in our family at the moment. God willing, we will be able to go next year. But we still will send all the donations to the people in Africa we trust and we know. Also, we will try to gather pictures and testimonies for you so that you see where the money has gone.
100% of all funds we raise go straight to people in Africa. We can guarantee any funds that will be raised will be going directly to them. None of the donations will be paying for our flights or food or accommodation etc. For all that we will pay ourselves. But we need your help to bless as many people as we can in Africa. When you donate, please add a note or reference in a few words saying what this money is for, if you want to be specific.
This is not one of the charities where people make wages out of it and I'm not asking for any money for myself. All the money goes straight to these people in need.
God Bless You!
Help The People in Uganda
Any amount will help. Even if it's only £5 or £10. It means a lot to them.
£5 equals 23,282.08 Ugandan Shillings.
£5 may not seem that much but it is a lot to people in Africa. And if 20 people donate £5 each, then it all together makes £100! And £100 is 465,720.00 Ugandan Shillings! Think about it.
We are not asking money for ourselves or our ministry. I'm a hard-working man and I have a full-time job.
100% of all the donations that we will receive will go straight to Africa. God Bless You!
Help for Ester and 150 orphans.

Help for Ester and 150 orphans.
Thanks to all supporters we were able to help Ester and 150 children with food and accommodation costs. The first £1000 we collected we sent to Ester because God told us so. Thank you for your help. It was just at the right time. You can see a video about it here. We apologise for the quality of some of these videos, but they don't have a good connection or good phones in Africa.
Helping The Widows.
Pastor Eyalu Selen and his wife.
Help for Ester and 150 orphans.
We sent £1700 of your donations to 30 widows. Each widow got 200 thousand Ugandan shillings. (200 thousand Ugandan Shillings is approximately a month's wage in Uganda). Some of the money also went to support 6 pastors and their families who are helping these widows. They were very very much thankful.

In this video, Pastor Eyalu Selen and his wife are counting the money to give to widows. We know these people personally and we know we can trust them. We sent the money to distribute to widows and also some for themselves. They have children and some of this money will help their son Isaac with school fees.
There are 6 pastors altogether who are helping the widows and orphans.

God stirred up the hearts of widows.
Pastor Eyalu Selen and his wife.
This mother is saying in a way of prayers: from the time her husband died she has not got the money equivalent to this money she got blessed with. She was lacking money to buy the seeds, food for her children, uniforms for the children etc. She is thanking God for this and thanking people who are helping.

This is another widow saying nobody has given her a blessing like this before. She is saying God bless everyone who donated and God bless the Five Loaves Ministry.

God stirred up the hearts of widows. They are very happy. They said they will be praying for the Five Loaves Ministry. One widow said Five Loaves Ministry has become their husband again. Because their husbands used to give them money to go to shop in the market but after their death, nobody gave them money. We all have touched their hearts. Thank you!

A woman gets a wheelchair.
I met this woman personally when I visited Uganda in 2022. She was dragging herself on the ground because she can't walk, and still helping the orphans. We prayed for her but unfortunately. she didn't get healed. At that time we couldn't afford to get her a wheelchair for her but I promised her when I will go back to the UK I will start a charity and will try to help her. So finally with God's help and with your help we could get her a wheelchair and give her a financial blessing also. Praise God!
From Muslim to Christ.

This is the very first boy to get the blessing of sponsorship and school fees. He was once a Muslim but was led to salvation through our mission in Soroti in 2022. His parents rejected him and refused to pay school fees for him when he turned to Jesus. Our prayers are that through him many others will get the same blessing.
