Discipleship: the heart of followers of the Lord Jesus Christ. Without discipleship, people may have a moving experience, and some friendship, but they lack a solid anchor in the truth of the Scriptures. Beginning in 2023, Hope For Uganda began to address this problem. Pastor Allan organized a group of about 12 students who were between Secondary School (High. School) and University. This group of students met each weekday, for 10 months. They memorized portions of the Book of Romans; they studied critical themes of doctrine and Christian life. In particular, they studied the meaning and the life-application of the Gospel. What is the Gospel? What difference is it meant to make in my life? The 2023 and 2024 groups met at Mbarara. The 2025 group is meeting at Nansana. The Primary and Secondary Academic year is from February to December (students begin a new level in February). The University schedule begins in late August or September. This leaves students with up to ten months time between, which is an ideal time for Discipleship training in this program, now known as Gospel Roots. One of the purposes of this training time is to help young people seek the Lord’s leading: for career, further schooling, and godly relationships.

Support Gospel Roots Discipleship Program

The 2023 and 2024 classes cost about $100 per student, per month, or, $1000 per student for the entire course. This covered room and board, and study materials, so that the students could focus on learning to be disciples of Jesus. The 2025 course is costing more than previous years, partly because the group includes 3 married couples. Hopefully they can be part of the leadership and staff in future years. Also, since the program is located in Nansana this year, costs are greater than they were in the more rural setting. The 2025 class is costing about $2500 per month. Donations can be designated for the Hope For Uganda Sub-Fund “Gospel Roots Discipleship Program,” #23350.
