A Life Touched  
     

Miranda* is a joyful 6-year-old girl at Restoration Gateway. She was abandoned by her mother when she was quite young, and there is no knowledge of who her father is.  Before coming to RG in March of 2013, Miranda's great uncle attempted to care for her.  Unfortunately, her uncle is paralyzed and has 18 of his own children to raise.  Consequently, no education was being provided for Miranda.  

Miranda is now thriving as a pupil at Oaks of Righteousness Primary School at RG.

Join us in thanking God for bringing Miranda to Restoration Gateway, and pray that she'll walk in the ways of God and fulfill His plans for her life.

McCalls and Restoration Gateway
To be Featured on HGTV's "Fixer Upper"

  

This Thursday, June 12, the McCalls will be featured on the television show "Fixer Upper" on HGTV at 8:00 pm CST. 

Friends of both the McCalls and Restoration Gateway, Chip and Joanna Gaines are using their exciting new television series to help provide a beautifully renovated stateside home for Tim and Janice. When in Uganda serving at Restoration Gateway, Tim and Janice live almost year-round in a 160-square foot home made out of shipping containers. Through this incredible series of events, the Lord has utilized this opportunity not only to provide a refuge for Tim and Janice when they return to Waco, TX for their biannual visits, but the work and mission of Restoration Gateway is being highlighted and will be introduced to a much wider audience.

Ophans Needing Sponsorship  

  

At Restoration Gateway we have several children just like Tricia in need of sponsorship. Each child was created in God's image and has a wonderful story of restoration in their new home. They all have varied histories Childbut they have one thing in common ----- they need your support and encouragement in their future. 

 

The sponsorship program at Restoration Gateway is different from other sponsorship programs which simply supplement a child's educational or nutritional needs. Sponsorship at RG includes:

  • A new home to live in, with a bed and belongings of their own
  • All meals
  • Clothing
  • Stipend for their house mom
  • Salaries for their teachers
  • School books and supplies
  • Indoor and outdoor recreation areas, playgrounds and soccer fields
  • Medical care provided by RG
Contact  Restoration Gateway  for more information on how you can make a difference in the life of a child.

Hospital

Restoration Gateway's long-awaited 180-bed hospital is now under construction.  This facility is greatly anticipated by the communities surrounding RG who have not had good, quality healthcare. Surgical suites and a surgical ward are the first buildings to be erected.  Please pray for continued funding to be received for the completion of the hospital.  $700,000 is still needed to finish the job and make this one of the finest healthcare facilities in Uganda.
