Reaching forgotten refugees — planting churches, making disciples, and helping them build hope that lasts.

What IMFC is Doing:

  • Planting house churches and making disciples who make more disciples across the UN refugee camps in Uganda.

  • Extending this ministry to smaller pockets of refugees living outside the official UN system, often in commune-like settings.

  • These groups are mostly made up of widows and children who were sent to Uganda when civil wars began — many of their fathers are now presumed lost to the conflict.

Challenges they face:

  • Some women and children are registered with the UN; many are not.

  • We strongly encourage all to register, since without it they receive no official services and remain in Uganda illegally.

  • Even with registration, support from the UN is minimal, leaving families to do whatever they can to survive.

A Hand Up Through the MANNA Program

  • IMFC runs a special MANNA program tailored to help these overlooked refugees in practical, sustainable ways.

  • The goal: so that when IMFC leaves, these families can still provide for themselves.

  • While their stories often sound the same, every family’s situation is uniquely complex.
