Mobilizing Uganda for Missions (MUM)

MUM: To glorify God by coming alongside the local church in Uganda to renew, train, and mobilize believers for active involvement in reaching the world for Christ.

1. African Coalition of Purity/Uganda (ACPU):
   
   VISION
   
   To see the Church, the Bride of Christ, become pure, holy, and prepared for her Bridegroom, Jesus Christ.
   
   MISSION
   
   Mobilizing and equipping men for a life of sexual purity by challenging them to make a commitment to become
   pure. Exposing to them the problems of impurity and revealing to them the cost of living impure in God’s sight.
   Through scripture, prayer, and small group accountability meetings, we hope to achieve purity and freedom
   from impure thoughts and actions.
2. Joyful learning Center:
   
   Joyful learning center is a central location for churches in the Busanna area to meet. We have made available material
   for discipleship/ pastor training, personal spiritual growth. The center is used for Community outreach through
   library, women’s Bible study, sewing ministry, orphan care partnerships with local churches, and health education and
   treatment partnerships with available medical staff (nationals and “short-termers”) The area youth ministries use the
   location for youth meetings.
3. River Nile Missionary Training Center (RNMTC):
   
   RNMTC: Starting January 2012, six or more missionary interns will be arriving at the Joyful Learning Center.
   They will be embarking on a 10 month missionary training program. The training will consist of three month of
   classroom work, and partial ministry experience. After the three month training, they will be sent to locations
   within and out of Uganda. The material that will be taught is similar to what we provide at the two other
   
   International Messengers training centers in Libby, MN and Odessa, Ukraine.
   Currently, applications are being given out; we will start the review process next month. I will be sharing a lot
   more information about NRMTC with you in upcoming PipesLine Updates.

MUM Staff: Pastor Moses, Pastor James and John Pipes.

The primary ministry focus for Pastor Moses is leading the Purity ministry. Pastor James is the primary leader of the day-
to-day ministries at the resource center. John heads up the mission training and discipleship ministries.

Deb Brandon is not an official IM staff or on the ground in Uganda year round. However, her contributions during the
past three summers (and counting...) have produced the foundation of the women’s ministry in the Busanna area
churches. She has invested her time to training women from area churches who will become key leaders to head up the
women’s ministry within MUM.

As with all mission adventures, funding is essential.  Please take the time to look at our support needs.

MUM is the word.
