We Had a Wonderful Week at In Field Mentoring 2023!

We had three main objectives for this training:

1. Train Farming God’s Way in three different communities in Uganda and minister to them.
2. Mentor Farming God’s Way trainers and help them move toward accreditation.

  3.   Model In Field Mentoring to others so they can replicate it in their countries.

At the end of the week, we had accomplished all three of our objectives! The first was training Farming God’s Way in three different communities and ministering to them. We trained in Bujagali (an area known for witchcraft), Kyando (an area known for ancestral worship) and Mbirabira (an area with an Islam influence). We averaged 30 farmers in each of these locations and by the end of the week, we had 14 farmers giving their lives to Christ! We ended the week with serving these farmers by assisting them in getting their fields laid out and began preparing for planting. We also prayed with and over these farmers. We also put plans in place to minister to the new believers by organizing bible studies with audio bible in the local language. 

The second objective was also a success with the accrediting of five additional Farming God’s Way accredited trainers. We had mentors helping to mentor these trainers from the US, Canada, Uganda, South Africa and Kenya. Four of the new accredited trainers are Ugandans and one is from the US (working in Nicaragua, Liberia and Cuba). This is such a blessing, because previously, there were only two active Farming God’s Way trainers in Uganda (me and an Ugandan). Now we have five Ugandan accredited trainers in Uganda! We also worked with quite a few other mentees that are on the path to accreditation to move them closer to the goal. We are so excited for the impact for the Kingdom of God these new accredited trainers are going to have as they continue to extend Farming God’s Way and help to mentor other trainers!

The third objective was to model In Field Mentoring with the goal of replication. Currently there are only three annual In Field Mentoring events worldwide (Uganda, South Africa and Zambia). We are working to get a few more started (Kenya, West Africa and Central America) and had representatives from these three areas learning how to run an In Field Mentoring event from us. 

It was a beautiful week of training, mentoring, serving, evangelism, prayer and fellowship! Lives were changed, souls were won and God received the glory!
