Hello Beloved Partner,
Season Greetings in the mighty name of Jesus, I pray that all is fine and that you are experiencing the joy and atmosphere of peace with our God through this Christmas season as we continuously get reminded of His extravagant love for mankind expressed through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Let me begin by taking this opportunity to extend my sincere appreciation for all your generous contributions towards the execution of the different organizational programs that have enabled us reach the unreached and neglected in different communities around the country. Your contributions have enabled us meet and exceed our set targets for the year 2014. As we come to the close of the year, we have reached over 30 communities in 15 districts across the country, over 45 schools, 24 prisons, doing evangelistic, humanitarian and vocational trainings and outreaches. A total of 73,050 people have been reached with the gospel with 38,082 surrendering and recommitting their lives to Christ through the different programs. Some of the highlights of the year include the outreach to the refugee camps in Adjumani district reaching over 5,000 refugees, the new programs introduced including the Purity campaign program, The Church Planters program and the Community empowerment Vocational training programs. We have established three new fellowship groups in schools and the community bringing the total number to 12 and shown the Jesus Film in 17 communities. The turnouts of these programs have been so massive thanks to your continued support.

As we look forward to embrace and reach new districts in 2015, we hope to double the numbers God willingly and impact new communities bringing transformation and creating a legacy of peace. We have received numerous invitations to new communities/districts after the Consultative/ Vision Casting training and The Church planter’s training both conducted early December 2014 with 78 leaders from 35 districts. Our goal for 2015 is to extend these programs to the new communities as we continue to nature leaders to take on the already existing programs. We believe this is possible through God’s help and partners like you.
Thank you once again for your generous financial contributions, knowledge and wisdom expressed through your counsel, the quality time offered, and help in all the other forms. The greatest part of our success is attributed to our willingness to implement the wealth of ideas given by partners like you. We eagerly look forward to continue partnering with you throughout 2015.
Together with the team at Mercy link foundation Africa, we would like to take this opportunity to wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR 2015.
May the almighty God bless and reward you bountifully.
Respectfully Yours,
Mr. Robert S. Mpagi
