Who we are

One may inquistively ask a question Birds Fellowship but who are you? Are you a fellowship of birds in the air? Has the birds in the air created a fellowship or what is this all about?

BIRDS is a fellowship that was started in July 2004 by then Bachelor of Statistics students Makerere Unversity Kampala who were on a recess term.

There was alot of time available after the days' lectures which could end at 12.00pm. A few people felt like we should do something in the kingdom of God as believers not just watch movies and play computer games. And that is the thouight that marked the beginning of BIRDS fellowship.The fellowship began with prayer meetings and Bible Study whereby we could meet in people's rooms in the halls of residence for that recess term (Nkrumah and Complex halls).

The fellowship began with five members then latter on expanded many people joined and by the end of the recess term we no longer five. At the beginning of the academic 2004/2005, there was a thought of disbanding the fellowship but then there came a consideration that this may be God's work that started in us so the idea of disbanding it came to be nullified.

New members continued joining and at the moment we are over 50 members both at the university and outside the university (those in the field).

OUR VISION
Our vision as a fellowship is "Proclaiming the love of God in this hurting world through the Word Isaiah 61:1."

OUR MISSION
Our mission is "Growing in the word, touching those around us with the love of Christ and multiplying in number. Acts 20:32 and Psalms 133."

BIRDS is a family bound together with cords of love that can not be broken.
We carry outreaches and evangelism in various parts of the country and our master plan by the grace of God is to reach out to the nations and multiply the kingdom of God.

In December 2006, we had our first mission to Fort Portal in Western Uganda followed by December 2007 we were in Bukedea District Eastern Uganda a place called Kachumbala.
We had a seminar, door-to-door evangelism and crusade from 17-23. People got saved, some were healed and a blind received her sight.At the end of the day we gave the glory to the God.

Its always the desire of God that His people live in harmony.Live as a family of Christ enjoy the love of God that made Him give His only begotten son Jesus Christ that he die for the sake of our sins, he made sin yet he was sinless all that for you and me to receive sonship in the family of God.
May the Almight God richly bless.
