Suubi Medical Clinic Uganda: Organizational Profile: ChristianVolunteering.org

Mission Statement:
“Suubi” means, “hope” in the Lusoga language, spoken by people in Busu village in the Iganga region of Uganda.

Denis Kigongo started Suubi Medical Clinic, in response to the desperate situation of the people in Busu. Denis was born and brought up in the village, so he knew that many children die before their 10th birthday, often of treatable diseases like malaria. Denis himself has lost cousins and neighbours who died at an early age.

Denis felt a strong sense of responsibility to the community that he grew up in and started to build the clinic in 2003 together with Lorraine using local labour and materials whenever possible.

Community Study: Why is this step important?

Activity: Community Study

What it is: The community study report explores the strengths, dreams and needs of the community. The study helps the church become more familiar with the community by gathering information about the demographics, culture, history, institutions and organizational systems of the community. Getting to know the community also involves networking, or the exchange of information and ideas with residents and institutions.

Ministry Planning Action Steps

Tool #46: Ministry Planning Action Steps

Use the chart in the attached file to organize and delegate the activities needed in planning new ministry programs.

Ideas for Moving from Relief to Development

Tool #44: Ideas for Moving from Relief to Development

Most churches in the U.S. offer at least one relief ministry. While relief is a vital expression of Christian compassion, it rarely produces real change. Beyond giving aid, churches can seek to address the root causes of needs and to help people build capital and skills to become more self-sufficient. Through redemptive relationships, development ministries become mutually transformational – by serving as agents of Christ's wholeness, we ourselves are transformed.  The attached document will aid you on this transformational journey.

Core Values of Holistic Ministry: Application Worksheet

Tool #43: Core Values of Holistic Ministry: Application Worksheet

This tool (in the attached document) can help you explore ways of integrating core values into ministries in the planning stage, or to enhance the impact of an existing program.

Building Bridges Between Church and Community

Tool #42: Building Bridges Between Church and Community

Your church can have a greater, more lasting impact in a community if you have a connection with people that goes beyond service projects or outreach events. Many congregations, however, feel isolated or estranged from their community.  Use the attached document to develop ways to build new connections.

Community Needs, Assets and Dreams

Tool #40: Community Needs, Assets and Dreams

Use the chart, in the attached document, to identify opportunities for expressing God's love in a community.

Prayer-Walking Guide

Tool #30: Prayer Walking Guide

What is prayer-walking? One simple definition: "Praying on-site with insight." The purpose of prayer-walking is to seek God's blessing, mercy, and transforming power -- both for the community, and for ourselves as God's servants in the community.  The attached document is a introductory resource to prayer-walking.

Preliminary Community Profile

Tool #28: Preliminary Community Profile

Preparing a preliminary profile can be a useful first step in a community study. The aim of this profile is to capture existing knowledge about a community; no significant new research is required at this stage.  The attached document can lead you through this process.
