BGM AND YOU MAKE “GO MAKE DISCIPLES” HAPPEN IN UGANDA
Prayer is at the heart of everything we do at BGM. It is the fuel that makes us run the race each new day. Just as the early church began with prayer, BGM began with much prayer and reflection on the call God placed on the hearts of the Douglas family to go share the gospel in Uganda.
All relationships start with the acknowledgement of the other person and their value to us. Prayer is where we start our relationship with God through Jesus Christ His son. Jesus taught his disciples the importance of prayer as He demonstrated it time and again and even gave them a model prayer to The Father.
“But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.”
Matt. 6:6 (ESV)
PRAY
Prayer is where we ask every person to start when they ask how they can help this ministry. There has never been a more productive servant of Christ than those who have chosen to make prayer the top priority in their spiritual walk. BGM needs your prayers. BGM cannot be sustained on human good will and works. We are completely dependent on the manifold Grace and Mercy of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ which comes through prayer and obedience to Him.
Your prayers can have a far reaching impact when given with complete confidence in our Heavenly Father’s ability to answer. Rev. Robert C. Chapman, a well known pastor in England in the 1800’s once said, “It is not by our much outward work that the value of our service will be judged in the day of the Lord. Many of the Church’s best helpers are intercessors confined to their beds.” So never discount the great value your obedience in prayer for BGM can have on this ministry. Everyone can take part!
GIVE
The missionary Jim Elliot’s famous quote, “He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep, to gain that which he cannot lose”, reminds us of the importance of mercy and not sacrifice. Many would see Elliot’s words as a call to sacrifice all that we have for The Lord. In fact, they are a call to cheerfully and gladly share that which was never truly ours so that we follow our Lord and Savior in showing mercy. The value of a resource freely given is only realized when we understand this simple principle. “I desire steadfast love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.” Hos. 6:6 ESV. True sacrificial giving is no sacrifice at all when we do it out of love and obedience to our God who provides the very breath in our lungs. When we completely love someone, we will do anything, share anything, give up anything to meet their needs. Adrian Rogers said it best, “We give because of Calvary’s Love”. Paul writes of this in 2 Cor. 8:9 “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.”
The purpose of Breaking Ground Missions is to share Christ’s Love through The Gospel to the people of Uganda. To accomplish this we need your faithful giving and support. Our desire is to be completely transparent in all our finances by sharing back with you how your faithful giving has impacted the people of Uganda. We do this by providing clear goals and objectives for individuals, churches, and corporations to sponsor. Our commitment doesn’t stop there. We provide reports and updates so each supporter can see how God has multiplied their specific gifts to bring forth the “increase” in the Kingdom of God. There is no better reward to faithful giving than to see it bring glory to God through changed lives.
A church or individual that sponsors a church plant here in Uganda will receive from BGM a detailed accounting of the costs to purchase the land and build the church. We will also provide a video showing the first Sunday service and those in attendance. As the church plant grows, we will provide ministry updates through the coming years so you can see how God is multiplying your gift.
GO
BGM has always desired that supporters be able to “Go” share in the joy and power of the Gospel shared with open and receptive hearts. Here in Uganda the fields are most certainly “white for harvest”, but the workers are few. We need your help if you are able to come to Uganda to partner with us as we are on mission in the villages of Uganda. You will find a gracious people unlike any you have ever known before, yet just like you and me in their need for redemption. In a part of the world where they have not been distracted with the material luxuries the world has to offer, you will find a people hungry for the Word of God.
BGM specializes in helping church teams as they pray, plan, prepare, and then step out in faith by traveling to Uganda to be a part of our ministry teams in the field. BGM includes assistance with securing air travel, passports, visa applications, vaccination requirements, and any other expected travel requirements.
The churches desiring to travel to Uganda can expect to receive clear up-front comprehensive trip costs. BGM will provide transportation from the airport in Kampala and throughout their stay in country. All meals and excursions are included in the cost except for two meals or food outside of designated meal times. We desire to work with your teams to make their stay in Uganda a rewarding one. See our “GO” page for more detailed information or call our North American Office at 850-331-1815 to get started.
The teams that come will change lives forever through the power of the Gospel shared through Christ’s power and great love. Come “Go” on mission with us in Uganda. You will never be the same!
CALL US to discover your next steps to “Go” on mission in Uganda
TELL
Everyone likes to hear a good story. Jesus taught His disciples through the use of stories and the testimony of believers. The same is true for us today. Those of us who have been to Uganda on mission or supported BGM through the years know things about BGM that those just discovering our mission need to know. We need YOU to go "TELL" about the work BGM is doing in Uganda! This can be as simple as sharing a BGM informational Booklet or even better, your experiences supporting BGM ministries. We have designed several downloadable tracts and brochures for you to use. We also have videos and social media to help tell your story.
One way you can TELL is to contact our Mission Advocate, Andy Butler and have him come speak to your church about BGM. We would love to share what God is doing through BGM with your church or other organization. Contact Us Today !
TOGETHER WE CAN BE GOD'S HANDS AND FEET TO SHARE THE GOSPEL TO UGANDA
