  • LFECast: The Global Ministry of Staff Fellowship with Mumbere Dieme
    Apr 4 2023

    Mumbere Dieme (or Dieme as he is known to us) is currently serving as a Staff Fellowship ambassador and lead in Uganda, Africa. In the district of Kasese there are over 500 schools. In just a short period of time, Dieme has established Staff Fellowship groups in 28 of these schools and has identified 28 Staff Facilitators to support each of these schools. How exciting to think that staff is being united around the gospel both here in the United States and now in Africa! It is our prayer that God would continue to magnify the work of Staff Fellowship around the globe!

    I have provided a brief excerpt from a recent email correspondence with Dieme below to give you a feel for the work he is doing. You are welcome to reach out to Dieme via email at apuuli144@gmail.com. You can find out more about KJCONPS at the website linked below.

    https://kyarumbajointchristiansaving.blogspot.com/2021/04/kyarumba-joint-christian-savings-and.html

    Staff Fellowship Ministry in Uganda is being the best school ministry to school Staff and school administrators. You will see amazing things in Uganda through Staff Fellowship, and I think Staff Fellowship ministry Uganda need to be among the major areas of focus too for STAFFF ORG and Staff community to have the ministry supported. Lots of schools have loved this and I will reach to them always.

    A MESSAGE FROM DIEME!

    I thought of also visiting different local radio stations around Kasese to buy programs at least 30minutes each and introduce Staff Fellowship to the entire community schools as most community here love listening to radio programs as this could be very important for schools to know more about the program I am running and very many will need it.

    However I and KJCONPS are not able to buy radio program for Staff Fellowship ministry as due to lack of Ministry operating budget to supplement the efforts but we are praying over each and everything.

    Brett and Dan Uganda is now a better place for you to equip with the Staff Fellowship ministry and having planed and constant visits to it for ministry and physically see what God is enabling me and KJCONPS in reaching the ministry and uniting school Staff around the Gospel. As far as STAFF Fellowship ministry in Uganda now most school Staff will give testimonies and through Staff Fellowship ministry Uganda will help you more to evaluate the impact of the Staff Fellowship ministry as God is doing great things here that you need to witness and pay a visit and additionally keep the ministry Funded and supported.

    Thank you for everything and the support and puting Staff Fellowship ministry Uganda at your front line as STAFFF in the States. God is really doing great work through me and KJCONPS.
