When Heaven Met Uganda

Our recent mission was marked by the faithfulness of God in ways only He could orchestrate.

What began with an original need of $3,000 became a testimony of overflow as God fully funded the trip with over $10,000, allowing us to go beyond what we planned and bless more people than we imagined.

During the trip, we ministered in prison, shared the Gospel, and witnessed powerful moments of freedom—including deliverance from addiction and lives being transformed through healing and truth. One man encountered freedom through a healing perspective that shifted everything for him.

At our leadership conference, all three opening messages aligned so clearly that it became evident the Holy Spirit had written the schedule before we arrived. Pastors testified it was one of the strongest conferences they had ever experienced, with many deeply impacted and strengthened. 

God also moved through practical provision. A single cow purchased for the children became enough to feed not only the children, but nearly 900 people. We were able to distribute clothing, bless pastors, staff, and families, and place resources directly into people’s hands—including giving away copies of our book; The Healing Journey.

There were moments of prayer for healing, including ministry to those suffering physically, and testimonies of God’s intervention even in serious conditions such as stomach ulcers.

We also had the joy of dedicating children to the Lord, receiving greetings from the village, and witnessing the beauty of community as people gathered with expectation and hunger for God.

Even the weather became a testimony, as we saw God move in miraculous ways through prayer.

This mission reminded us again that when God sends, He not only provides—He exceeds, restores, and leaves lasting fruit.

SPEAKER_01 0:20

Hey guys, we are here in Uganda, Africa, and we have had a powerful move of God. It's probably one of the most powerful ones we've seen in quite a while. God is moving powerfully, so we want to share a little bit about what God did in Africa and we want to give Him the glory. First of all, we went to a prison locally that had about 634, I believe it was. And so it was just such an honor to see their worship and their loyalty to hear the gospel. We preached a gospel and a word about not allowing the spirit of death to declare the rest of their purpose, but we declared that God would actually take their purpose into his hands and bring them into the kingdom of God, that not one would perish. And so it was a powerful move of God. We talked to the warden. We got to sit in his office. That was super cool. And it's just so cool to see God move. As soon as we finished the sermon, the rain just poured and saturated the entire grounds. Literally, it was like a river was developed there. And the warden had told us that it had been two weeks since they had had rain. And so they desperately needed God to saturate the land so that they could actually plant their crops. And so that was a powerful uh weather miracle that we experienced. So as we were preparing for this trip, the Lord laid it on our heart to actually purchase a cow. And so we did that, and it was just so beautiful because we thought that we were feeding children, and we come and we realize that it's almost kind of like we had a um a multiplication miracle because this one cow that was supposed to only feed the 700 children here ended up feeding the children and the pastors. So it was about almost 900 people that got fed by this one cow. And so that was just such a beautiful thing. They were very appreciative. They actually were able to um get refreshed and get restored after the first couple of sessions and then come into the next session uh full of the spirit, but also full in the natural to receive more from God. So that was a powerful moment for us. It was Jacoby can show you some b-roll of the cow and how they did that. Maybe not the whole thing because it's it's crazy, but wow, it was really cool. They literally sacrificed an animal to this uh time in Uganda and they all ate and were full. And then we were able to go visit some of the local widows in this ministry, uh, ministry area that they serve on a uh normal basis, but we went there and we were able to pray for these women who needed strength, they needed hope, they needed a resurrection of joy, and um, so that was a blessing to be able to do that. And uh, we actually encountered a man that was there with one of the widows, and he had his um vodka, his vodka bottle on the ground, and the pastor here asked him for it, and he said no. And so we were kind of in this battle, and I saw immediately that the spirit did not want to release this. So I just asked the man, could I please pray for him? Could I please just bless him? And he agreed. He um wanted to go into his house to do it, which was fine. That's even better because the uh presence of God entered his house, and that'll make a huge difference in his life. So he actually uh received uh salvation, he he repented for his sins, and he asked the Holy Spirit to empower him to actually give this up and surrender it. He had had generational um addiction and uh just bound by that generational curse. So we were able to break that and he walked out in freedom. He actually handed over the bottle to me before I walked out the door, and um I was able to pour that out as an offering to the Lord. I know that sounds crazy, but it is an offering to the Lord when we sacrifice those things that are in his place, so that bottle was emptied out to the Lord so that the Lord could fill him, and that was a powerful moment. We were excited for his deliverance, and we were just we are just having the best time here.

So on Thursday, one of the best things that we got to do was a pastor's conference. Pastors, their wives, leaders in the church, families came to this conference to be fed by the Holy Spirit. And in doing so, all three of us prepared a sermon. However, we had no idea what each one of us was talking about. We just got word from the Lord and we were ready to release it. You could see through each sermon that we preach that the Holy Spirit was intertwining all of them. All three of our sermons tied together so well, and there was breakthrough in so many ways that we have pastors coming up to us saying they have never been to a conference like this before. Even the pastor that is currently hosting us, who does multiple conferences throughout the year, he said he has never had a conference like this before. And it was just beautiful because we got to see so many things happen. When Cody preached, there was a baptism of joy that happened afterwards. We didn't even say baptism of joy come out in the name of Jesus and just start doing it. They just started dancing and having a great time for like 30 minutes, 40 minutes. They were just dancing. With it just kept going, and it was beautiful. And then after I preached, there was a time of like surrender, and you could see a shift happen in the spirit where they surrendered. And then when Jacoby preached, we got to see the baptism of faith take place as well. So we got to see so many things take place during this conference. On the first day we were here, another powerful thing that we got to do was anoint every single kid at this ministry and dedicate them to the Lord. At least four, like 300, 400 kids we anointed with oil and dedicated them to the Lord. And then after that, we prayed against stomach ulcers. We asked everybody that had them to come up. At least a hundred kids came up. And we got to pray against stomach ulcers and believe the Lord would heal them. In the midst of all this, we also brought our book, The Inner Healing Journey. We were able to gift some woman with that book, and we are excited to come back and get that book translated so more people will have access to these things. Because even today, we did a woman's panel, and when we did that, a lot of the focus was on the heart and the soul, which is an area that women need help in. And we got to see a lot of transformation come forth out of that as there was revelation coming forth and surrender and just vulnerability. These women were talking about things that a lot of people won't talk about, and so it was really beautiful to see how the Lord has touched every single aspect of ministry as we have been here.

SPEAKER_02 6:46

And with this, my favorite part was probably the greeting. We got here, it was a what how long? It was a 24-hour travel, and then it was a five-hour travel just to drive from Entebbe to get to their village. And man, after that five-hour car ride, we got out and the whole village greeted us. They danced all the way from the beginning of the entrance to the village, all the way to the room that we've been staying at. It's been great hospitality. They've been cooking for us every single day, great meals, and even today we have burgers, which is really crazy, that also came from the from the cow that got sacrificed to heaven, you know. And one of my favorite parts was the QA session. We did a panel, and the panel was so powerful, it went for almost two hours, and they had so many questions that we had to break it up from girls to guys. The woman took the girls, obviously, and the guys went to the other side, and these guys had questions on questions on questions, and the Holy Spirit was just moving because I did not know the answers, and he was just giving me revelation and stories. So thank you, Jesus, for that. But man, this has been amazing. And we just want to say we want to thank you guys for everyone that has partnered. And if you guys are thinking about how can I become a part of this, how can I sow a seed, how can I help all these people out. We have multiple connections, we have multiple ways that you can do so, and it's been a beautiful thing because we originally were trying to raise 4,500 for this trip. God has overflowed, pressed down, shaken over, doubling double, double abundance, double abundance, and he came back. And yes, we've been over to sow over ten thousand dollars into this trip, and it's been amazing. It went towards all of the food to sacrificing a bull and so many things that have happened on this trip because of your giving. So we thank you guys. And if you guys want to partner with this ministry or even partner with other ministries, we welcome you. So we'll leave the link in the details, and we'll leave the link in uh the details on the screen as well.

SPEAKER_00 8:31

And another thing is we plan to do more trips like this. And I know we've had so many people commenting on our posts, commenting on everything that we're putting out there that they want to come. If you want to come to the nation to the nations with us, there is a door for that. So please reach out to Global Footprints Ministries, get connected, tell them that you're interested in coming on a trip with us, and we can make that happen.

SPEAKER_02 8:55

And it's great because you get empowered. You might say, Who am I to preach in front of thousands? Who am I to go share and testify? Jesus chose just ordinary people. We're all ordinary people, we can all do it. Just come out, have fun, be empowered, share the gospel, and let's do it for Christ. In Jesus' name.
