Come feel the love joy and joyful hearts that our Acholi women have towards the work of God, you will be amazed.

Children Ministry

RETOM Global Ministries is dedicated to teaching children about the love of Jesus and instilling a lifelong love for the local church. We realize that a great church experience coincides with a child’s developing impression of God’s love, so we strive to do that and make it a great experience!

Safety for our children is very important here at our church and RETOM Global sees Children as the neediest and most vulnerable people in the world. They are often suffering and are at risk. Scripture commands the church to do something about it. Children are the worst sufferers of any disaster such as war, famine, landslides, epidemics, divorce, AIDS, poverty, or displacement. This is because they are powerless, have no resources, are treated as disposable, and cannot fight for themselves or influence decision-makers in their favor.

Our goal is to provide educational opportunities to children, so sponsorship is given to them according to what God provides. The schools we sponsor provide safety, a rich environment of music, storytelling, crafts, games, and intentional guidance, which support developing relationships and allow for opportunities to learn Biblical truths. These truths and concepts are taught in an age-appropriate way that enables children to easily apply them to their daily lives. Using skilled volunteers, cutting-edge technology, fun activities, and creative environments, we communicate God’s love so as to foster a desire to come and learn.

Mission Outreach

Pastor Peter O. Okwera has a burden of Mass Evangelism, Salvation Crusades, Teaching and Discipling the Nations to follow Jesus Christ. Since September 2019 up to date, Pr. Peter Okwera has been doing radio ministry in the region of Northern Uganda. We do partner with Speak FM and Choice FM in Gulu City and RAPA FM in Pader district. It's our endeavor to reach everybody everywhere with the ageless messages of Jesus Christ. Our Ministry has partnered and is partnering with other ministries across the world to reach people in northern Uganda. We are so blessed to have these radio programs and we praise God for our hosts Simon, Nelson, and Debob for the great work they are doing in building the Kingdom of God.

RETOM Global is seeking and believing God for a Christian Commercial FM Radio station to be put in Northern Uganda to increase the preaching of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Pray with us, support us, and believe God with us to purchase the equipment and resources necessary to have our own radio station.

Our hearts melt for the dying souls in our world. when you think about the fact that the rich and poor people, men and women, girls and boys, older and younger, educated and the uneducated, white, black and all people of color are all going to hell day and night. Many have NOT heard the gospel and we believe that this is the set time for us to influence the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The world needs me the world needs you. If we don't reach people now, then when? And if not us, then who? Pray for the hard to reach communities, pray for the Nations of the world to come to know Jesus Christ, please pray pray and pray.

Jesus said "Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest’? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the fields are white for harvest.

John 4:35 — English Standard Version (ESV).

And please join us as we reach out to train grassroots pastors and Uganda Church Leaders, and train student leaders across Northern Uganda. Reaching the unreached communities with the ageless messages of Jesus Christ is our Mission.

Lubanga Lakica Project

Lubanga Lakica is an Acholi word meaning God is merciful, In Matt 25:36 Jesus said, “I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you visited Me with help and ministering care, I was in prison and you came to see Me”, And it was upon this background of what Jesus said that led to the birth of this Hospital and Prison ministries back in the days when Pastor Peter was in a high school 15+ years ago.

Pastor Peter has done a lot of ministry work in hospitals and prisons with his fellow young ministers in Gulu. They have reached out to the inmates and the sickly with the ageless messages of Jesus Christ, so that the hand of God has been evidenced in the lives of many. Pastor Peter has a spirit of compassion for prisoners and hopeless sickly people, as well as the suffering families of the prisoners and their children who are often neglected with no proper parental care. RETOM is being used by God to change the lives of these people. One way RETOM is helping is to provide transportation back to their villages or towns where they come from, providing food to eat, and temporary housing. Pray with us, support us, and God will bless you for your kind heart of helping.

RETOM Global wants to:

Reach out to the prisoners and the ex-prisoners/ after custody and do Christian counseling with them.
Help the vulnerable children of the ex-prisoners and the inmates by providing scholastic materials like books, shoes, uniforms, etc.
To establish a Transitional Housing Programs which will help these people from prisons and hospital before they relocate back to their homes.
