Uganda

Apostle Christine Margaret Lwere

I met Apostle Jennifer Abigail Lawson-Wallace when she first came to Uganda in 2009. We had a conference for a whole week in our church that I had organized and she taught from the Free to Serve manual. I was chosen to be the country representative for Uganda and in 2010, we launched Women in Tune Uganda.

Since then, she has been coming to Uganda and she has taught so many women. Before Apostle Jennifer Abigail came, we would hold women conferences but they had centered most around culture and wrong submission. We thought leadership was for men and we didn’t know that women could know the doctrine of the word. Women didn’t know how to handle doctrine.

So, when Apostle Jennifer Abigail came, she started a whole new journey of helping women know the word of God and take responsibility for their families, their communities, their church, city, and nation. We also started a new journey of our identity in Christ, because before that, we didn’t know. Since then, we have seen women rising up in positions of leadership and taking responsibility to empower themselves to be effective in ministry.

I was fully ordained as an Apostle in 2017, after the realization that even women can operate in the fivefold ministry. Since then, I have taken the responsibility to empower women to take responsibility for their families, communities, churches, the Body of Christ, the city, and the nation. For a whole year now, I have a platform where I teach about 140 women daily; pastors and pastor’s wives, and each one of them is required to choose 5 other people to disciple and mature them into the stature of Christ.

I lead a prayer group for the body of Christ and the church in the nation and nations that has been going on for over 10 years now. We have other Quiver groups where we mobilize women to pray for their lives and nation in groups of five. One of the most important things that women now know is that we are created for a purpose, not just having kids and marriage, and that they have a responsibility to fulfill a purpose for the kingdom. Women now know they are priests and kings who rule on behalf of the Father.
