Mountain Children's Ministry
Mountain Children’s Ministry seeks to offer hope and a future to vulnerable children and families,
sharing the love of God in the mountainous Kabale region of Uganda.
Help Build Hope
Research proves sponsored children have improved outcomes as adults in education, employment, income & leadership.
University or vocational education is a necessity for most young adults to live independent, productive lives, and most of our younger students thrive best when attending boarding school. Placing our children in these schools requires additional funds.
Community development offers support & hope to families and children
MCM strives to increase dignity & ownership with self sustainability projects which add income to our program & provide jobs to villagers.
Ronah’s Story
Getting eyeglasses turned Ronah into a computer star! But first, someone had to really see her to bring out her potential. Ronah is now “paying forward” her blessings by teaching younger students, showing the fuller picture of how God is providing ongoing, lasting, generational change amongst MCM children and our extended community.
Serving Rural Uganda
Ministry to the children in rural Uganda began with a visit to the mountains of Kabale by Michele Pageau and Mpeirwe Ivan in July of 2012. At that time, with a combined work history of 17 years of caring for African orphans, Michele and Ivan recognized the needs of children made destitute and vulnerable because of HIV/AIDS, malaria, dysentery and civil war. They were also alarmed at how little was being done specifically in this rural area.
On their first morning hike in the mountains, watching the clouds rise from the valley, both Ivan and Michele felt God’s call to serve here. As a result, in January 2013 Ivan quit his job and moved to Kabale to begin Mountain Children’s Ministry – Uganda, incorporating self-sustainability programs from the start. Simultaneously, Michele began MCM – USA as a 501(c)3 Non Profit Organization to come alongside and support MCM – Uganda with a child sponsorship program.
