Resurrection Life Church
      Uganda

RezLife Church Uganda launched its first service in January 2010 just three days after Pastor David Kyambadde buried his eldest sister, fondly known to most as Nalongo. For years, she prayed for her brother often telling him he was called to pastor. Imagine her elation, when he told her he had an experience with God while flying home from England.

Pastor David, praying with children in Sunday School at RezLife Church Uganda“I really can’t explain what happened to me. I just knew it was time to go to Uganda and start a church and I    had no doubt.” Pastor Kyambadde says of the experience. He planned to begin the ministry in February 2010. But due to his sister unexpected passing the beginning of the year, he decided not to waste any time and began right away.

A unique, contemporary ministry with traditional foundations, RezLife Church Uganda’s passion is to reach their community with the Gospel in creative ways. Using things like sports, music, and family-fun time (in addition to preaching and teaching the Word), this new vibrantly growing congregation, located in Lubowa (a suburb of Kampala, the capital city), implements creative activities and projects that meet tangible community needs.

He is the only God who will walk with them, talk with them, comfort, guide, and experience life with them. He loves each unconditionally and will begin to touch their lives where ever they will open the door. He cares where is matters most - in their daily life - the families they cherish, the things that they love and hate, the needs that plague them, the hope they fight for, accomplishment they take pride in and failures they don’t.” says Pastor Aimee (David’s wife).

Not a conventional couple, the Kyambadde’s are known for being real, open and straight forward. Reaching out to people many often overlook and in ways that are unusual or non-traditional is common place for them. Such traits were exemplified by the start of their ministry to street children (called Home Again) in 2000. The past ten years they have been raising fifty former street boys. A commitment many could not understand. But they saw potential untapped, hearts broken, lives that needed guidance.

Several are active in various ministry and service roles at RezLife Church. Some are still in Secondary school planning to attend University in the near future.

The Kyambadde’s Home Again family gave up their childhood home to turn it into RezLife Church’s sanctuary, children’s church and offices – just one example of their growing love and commitment to the Gospel and how knowing Jesus Christ has impacted their own lives.

"And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the apponted season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. So then, as occasion and opportunity open up to us, let us do good to all people [not only being useful or profitable to them, but also doing what is for their spiritual good and advantage]. Be mindful to be a blessing, especially to those of the household of faith."
--Galatians 6:9-10 (AMP)
