Pastor Eugene & Florence Nsamba are pastors and church planters in Uganda and are the founders of Hidden Treasure Children’s Foundation of Maya, Uganda
Over 500 children attend their three schools from pre-school through grade school. Pastor Eugene has personally trained 66 pastors in Africa to finish the Great Commission and has started several churches in the past year. Florence serves alongside her husband heading up Hidden Treasure school and leading a Connect group (evangelism) to begin a new church plant in the area.
These dear servants of the Lord face many challenges that those of us in ministry in North America cannot comprehend, including the fact that they must send their young children to boarding school, due to the extreme danger of kidnappings in and near their community. They manage to use public transportation to oversee the various ministries in their care, but cannot allow their children to go to and from school on the buses (they do not own a car) because of the danger of being kidnapped for human trafficking or Satanic ritual abuse. In addition, they share their home with the pre-school and early grade school children – 80 plus children each day and are praying to find a place of their own as the school continues to grow.
In spite of the differences and difficulties of pastoral life in Uganda, the basic challenges are pretty much the same as we face in the United States. Pastor’s wives, I hope you will take time to watch this interview with Florence and pay special heed to the her comments at the end of the conversation, because “Faithful is HE who called you, WHO also will do it!”
