WOMENS CONFERENCE
This conference went on from Monday, January 23, 2012 to Tuesday, January 24, 2012
AT St. Andrews Church Hall Bukoto Kampala.
It was attended by different women from numerous parishes in the diocese of Kampala
plus other women from outside the diocese. The facilitators included:
1.Pastor Lee Grady, The Mordecai Project, USA2.Pastor Marc Longoria, My Fathers House Church, USA3.Hon. Miria Matembe, former Minister of Ethics and Integrity, Republic of Uganda.
The two-day conference was basically geared towards empowering the women to take
up their position in spiritual warfare and rediscover their true identity in God so that
they can be better positioned to have an impact in the kingdom of God.
This conference was very successful:
The talks by Lee Grady and MarcLongoria (main facilitators) were simply
presented, passionately inspiring,
culturally relevant, and plainly biblical.
The participants were empowered withbiblical insights concerning the strength
of a woman and the potential that God
has endowed her with in effectively
transacting kingdom business. At numerous points during the
conference, the participants were given
tasks to tackle in groups. Thereafter, the group leaders would present the results
of their discussions before others.
There was enough time devoted toprayer where by women were prayed
for as a group but more so, at
individual level.
They were taught to be dangerouswomen in the sense of standingstrong in the Lord to be a real threat
to the devil, while transacting
kingdom business.
By the end of the conference, thewomen had resolved to break free from those old traditions religious and
cultural that have for a long time put them in slavery of a kind.

2012 at Rest Gardens Bweyogerere Kampala.
It was attended by 37 handpicked men

planned them to be. They were also
encouraged to make disciples to mentor
others.

The conference was basically geared
towards challenging the men to take uptheir position in the church, families, nation, and in spiritual battle. They were
challenged to live bold and courageous, to exercise God-given authority over their
wives with godliness and understanding, to give attention and love to their families,
but also to stand out and confront the evils that mar society. This conference was very
successful.
Lee Grady and Marc Longoria
(main facilitators) spoke to the
men in a very sincere mannerthat depicted two souls that
were passionately pouring out
their honest hearts for the
growth and empowerment of 37
other hungry souls.

The men were both challenged and empowered to get in the game and be participants
rather than being passive onlookers, merely watching whatever goes on around them.
At numerous points during the conference, the men were put in groups from where
they discussed numerous issues that affect them, shared their personal lives, and
prayed for one another in the small group setting. The group leaders were always
given time to present the results of their discussions before others.
On Friday night, there was time specifically devoted to prayer and the prophetic
ministry as Lee Grady prayed for the men and prophesied upon their lives individually
and also as a group. The men also stretched their hands and prayed for Lee, that God
may continue to anoint him and use him for the expansion of the kingdom of God.
After breakfast on Saturday, men departed to go and make a positive difference in
their societies.

Sunday, January 29, 2012.
This day was full of activities.
First, Lee spoke in St. Francis Chapel inside Makerere University Kampala. He spoke in
two morning services, largely advocating for godly treatment of women. Below are
some of the pictures of Lee speaking:
After his talk, he challenged the congregation to be bold and stand up and speak out
against the ills in the society things that go against the precepts of our God. Many
stood up to be prayed for, raising their hands in the air as a sign of surrender, so that
God may use them courageously to tackle with bravery the things that break His own
heart.
Being a day when Rev. Medad Birungi was giving thanks for the healing of her sonOmega and achievement of his PhD, we went to St. Kakumba Chapel in Kyambogo
University at 11:30am where many people had gathered for the thanksgiving service.
At his home in Namugongo Kampala, it was dancing, speeches, eating, and thanking
God. Pictures below can show the mood!
