Because He Lives
In 1989, Rev. Moses Mbuga Ssemanda took a step of faith that would improve the lives of thousands of children in Uganda. Inspired by a deep calling to serve and shaped by the hardships he faced after losing his father at a young age, he dedicated his life to caring for orphans. What began with just three children has grown into a mission that now supports thousands through education, clean water initiatives, and community development. His story of faith, perseverance, and the vision behind Imani Milele Children Inc. are an important reminder that God often uses the smallest beginnings to create hope and lasting change for many.
This post includes the beautiful hymn “Because He Lives” sung with great joy by the Imani Milele Children’s choir . . .
From the Lips of Children
On Palm Sunday, when Jesus arrived at Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, He sent two disciples ahead to a village to borrow and bring to Him a donkey and her colt. This took place to fulfill Zechariah’s prophecy, “Say to Daughter Zion, see, your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.” The disciples did as Jesus instructed and when they returned he sat on the donkey and rode into the Holy City as a large crowd spread their cloaks and branches on the road while shouting “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” . . .
