As WIT Uganda, we aspire to raise and teach women to advance the Kingdom. We take on a wholistic approach in transforming the women so we seek not only to empower them spiritually, but socially and economically as well. Spiritually, we have continued teaching them about their identity in God and their position as sons, usually in the setting of conferences and prayer meetings. Teams have been going out to the different provinces of the nation to teach women the Word and the importance of a personal relationship with God.

We encourage prayer groups because it is one of the fundamental principles in our teachings. We have also started to teach the women digitally by creating a platform where I teach women and encourage discussion of the teachings. They are required to summarize and teach 5 other women. Some of the topics discussed from last year July to date include:

  • Personal Identity and Identity of the Church
  • The Great Commission
  • Kingdom Mandate
  • Characteristics of sonship
  • Priesthood
  • Foundations
  • Baptisms
  • Growth towards Christ
  • How to apply the identity to work for us
  • Dealing with strongholds
  • Purpose
  • Handling fear and Culture
  • Growing to Know Christ
  • Knowing the Holy Spirit
  • Prayer

among others.

We recognize that we are social beings and we encourage the women to engage with each other by holding parties, having counseling sessions, engaging in group discussions, visiting each other, and consistently checking on each other. In our teachings, we discuss social issues with the women and teach them how to react to them as a son. This creates a environment for women to share their experiences and encourage each other.

Most women are economically weak so we encourage them to work and get involved in the projects that we have created. Plans are in the works to start more projects and give the women more options of projects they can get involved in. The funds for these projects are being mobilized from within the women groups and we believe in God for more financial support from WIT International and well-wishers.

As for future plans, we plan to have representatives in every region to expand the vision of Women in Tune.  Already some ground work has been carried out during a national tour taken towards the end of last year.

We are proud of the progress that we have made so far and continue to be encouraged by the testimonies of the women. We thank God for all He has enabled us to do and for WIT International for the support we have received.
