After visiting Uganda on a short term mission trip in 2024, I fell in love with the culture, the people and the land. I felt it strongly on my heart to return, and in January 2025, I left my home to move to Uganda and serve as a full-time missionary. I am partnered with New Life Discipleship Ministries (NLDM) and serving under the leadership of Pastors Henry and Harriet Senfuka. Under NLDM, I assist with church planting, teaching at their school (New Generations Nursery and Primary), community outreach and youth ministry. All proceeds from this campaign go toward my work and life as a full-time missionary (living expenses, transportation and ministry supplies/expenses).
Your prayers and support mean the world to me! If you'd like to keep up-to-date on the work I'm doing, you can find me on Instagram @john.marissa or on YouTube @TeacherMarissaUG. You can also email me at marissa_john@outlook.com if you'd like to be added to my monthly newsletter.
Thank you for your generosity!
