Hope Restored Christian Ministries

“For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” — Luke 2:11

As we celebrate the birth of our Savior, we pause with grateful hearts to thank God for His unending love, faithful provision, and perfect guidance throughout this past year. Christmas reminds us that hope entered the world through Jesus Christ—and that same living hope continues to transform lives today in Nakaseeta, Uganda.

This year has been filled with remarkable breakthroughs, answered prayers, and God-sized miracles. Through your generosity, prayers, and unwavering belief in this mission, lives have been changed in ways we could never have imagined. We are deeply humbled to witness God at work through each of you.

From our entire Hope Restored Christian Ministries family, we wish you a Merry Christmas, a joyful New Year, and abundant blessings in the year ahead.

🌟 Reflecting on God’s Work in 2024–2025

A Year of Growth, Healing & Hope

As we reflect on the past year, we clearly see God’s hand guiding every step—strengthening families, blessing children, and opening doors far beyond what we thought possible. Each of you has played a vital role in this transformation.

--------------------------------------------------

🍽️ Nutrition Program — From Hunger to Health

Seven years ago, Christy walked the red clay road to Nakaseeta and discovered children trying to learn on empty stomachs. God placed a clear vision on her heart:

“Every child deserves a nutritious meal—not someday, but today.”

Because of faithful supporters like you:

• Boarding students now receive three meals daily

• Day students receive two meals daily

• Student health and focus have improved dramatically

• School enrollment continues to rise

• Children are thriving both academically and physically

Children who once arrived at school hungry now come nourished, energized, and ready to learn.

--------------------------------------------------

📚 Education — Raising the Next Generation of Leaders

Nakaseeta Foundation Christian Primary School is now recognized as one of the top-performing schools in the district. Beginning with 210 students in 2018, the school has now grown to 473 students during the 2025 school year.

Your support provides:

• Tuition for primary and secondary students

• School uniforms and learning supplies

• A safe, Christ-centered learning environment

• Life-changing sponsorship opportunities

Many students are preparing for futures in medicine, engineering, education, agriculture, and ministry—proof that when hope is restored, generations are transformed.

--------------------------------------------------

🩺 Medical Care — Healing for Families

The Hope Medical Clinic continues to provide essential services including:

• Immunizations

• Malaria prevention and mosquito nets

• Family planning

• Clean water access

• First aid and routine medical care

Through your generosity, families receive care that would otherwise be out of reach, bringing health, dignity, and renewed hope.

--------------------------------------------------

🦷 A Miracle in the Making: Nakaseeta’s First Dental Clinic

One of this year’s greatest milestones was funding and building Nakaseeta’s first-ever dental clinic—a long-awaited dream that is now becoming a reality.

At our Dinner & Auction at Wilcox Family Farms, God moved powerfully. We not only met our goal—we exceeded it!

Because of your generosity, we’ve laid the groundwork for a grand opening of the new medical/dental clinic, with hopes of being fully ready for operation in 2026.

This clinic will address widespread, untreated dental pain—restoring confidence, keeping children in school, and breaking the cycle of silent suffering.

The new building is also large enough to bring all medical services under one roof, with dedicated exam rooms—including space for ultrasound services—to improve the quality of care for expecting mothers and their babies.

--------------------------------------------------

🐣 Poultry Project — Supporting Sustainable Nutrition

With over 1,000 chicks introduced last year, the poultry project now produces hundreds of eggs daily, supporting:

• School meals

• Nutrition program sustainability

• Local income generation

This project continues to grow as a long-term food and income source.

--------------------------------------------------

🏫 Infrastructure Growth — Building for the Future

Your support has helped make possible:

• Construction of a new student dormitory

• Continued development of the Medical & Dental Clinic

• Renovated classrooms and campus improvements

Every brick laid is a testimony to God’s faithfulness.

--------------------------------------------------

🎒 Sponsorship Program — Connecting Hearts Worldwide

This year, we are up to 73 children that are sponsored—praise God! Sponsors received heartfelt handwritten letters filled with gratitude, joy, and dreams for the future. There are more kids in need, please visit our sponsor page and/or contact us if you feel called to sponsor a child in need.

Sponsorship provides:

• Education

• Nutritious meals

• Health care

• A safe learning environment

• Generational change

We still have many children who are still hoping for a sponsor—and your support can truly change a life, strengthen a family, and uplift an entire community.

You can visit our Sponsorship page to see children who are urgently in need of sponsorship, or you can contact us and we’ll help you find the right fit.

This month’s spotlight is Kihumulo Jesiah. Both of his parents are struggling to pay school fees, and having a sponsor would be a tremendous blessing to him and his family.

📆 School Holiday Schedule

School break began November 26, 2025

Please keep the children in your prayers during this season of rest.
