Ugandan Man Delivered from Witchcraft

All the locals knew Elvis in Lukaya, Uganda. He was the crazy guy running around town.

When Elvis showed up at a GOF’s partnering church you help support, Pastor Joseph knew it was time. Jesus had greater plans for this man.

Apart from the Pastor, no one else knew what was wrong with Elivis, but he was definitly not right. It turns out his stepmother had placed curses on him, causing his increasing insanity.

Pastor Joseph prayed over him, rebuked the demonic spirit, and immediately Elvis was in his right mind!

Elvis had nothing to his name, so the church clothed him and fed him. When Elvis showed up the next Sunday at church, people could hardly recognize him!

Everyone knew crazy Elvis.  Now he is the testimony of Jesus around Lukaya!

Pastor Joseph

What would happen to Elvis if there wasn’t a church? He might still be in demonic bondage today. He wouldn’t be a follower of Jesus. And now a disciple!

You have special opportunity to invest in the lives of others like Elvis who desperately need Jesus and a community around them in the life of Christ.

Will you prayerfully consider joining us in this mission of advancing the Gospel in Word and Deed? So many are counting on you.
