WEI Flourishes in Uganda

November 20, 2021

On January 7, 2017, Dan Newsom of Searcy, Arkansas, sent a WEI Introductory Lesson to Mubiru Samson in Uganda. That was a historic day for WEI.

When Samson received his first lessons, he shared them with five fellow preachers in the area, and a group of Dan Newsom’s friends in Searcy began teaching Batumule Julius, Kirimata Moses, Bwana Fred, Amire Ronald, and Bitiraine Emmanuel via the Internet.  

As Samson advanced through the Intermediate course, he shared the lessons with three elders in churches of Christ who, according to Samson, “campaigned for WEI in Kamuli, Buyende, Kaliro, and Luuku districts.  As a result, we launched an open registration for WEI classes on July 20, 2019, at the Kitukiro Church of Christ.” 

 On August 21, 2019, all the preachers met and laid the groundwork for World English Institute & School of Biblical Studies, Uganda.  The first WEI classes were taught at the Butaswa Church of Christ, and classes continued there until the COVID-19 pandemic shut them down.  At that time, Samson reports, “We started hiding while lessons were taught.”

 “We still study under trees.  We have not yet constructed [a building], but over 10,000 bricks are already here which will be used for raising a class building as you will see in the photo.”

Making Bricks for a Classroom Building

The five preachers who studied with Dan Newsom and his team are now teachers at the WEI Training Center at Kitukiro.  Recently, on November 20, 2021, the training center celebrated its first graduation ceremony.

Samson concludes: “Thirty-nine (39) students graduated.  Over 35 students have successfully completed both Intermediate and Advanced lessons, and ten of these have established Churches of Christ: Kamuli Town Church of Christ, Naluwoli Church of Christ, Namasagali Church of Christ, Busumba Church of Christ, Kirimwa Church of Christ, Buwangala Church of Christ, Bulondo Church of Christ, Maango Church of Christ, Ikanda Church of Christ, and Inuula Church of Christ.”   

This historic development duplicates 2 Timothy 2:2. Dan Newsom taught Samson.  Samson taught his friends.  His friends taught others who are now teaching others.  To God be the glory.
