About Build Church Africa
Build Church Africa (BCA) is a faith Based Organization that was started founded by Melinda and Deacon Bienvenu Byamungu who are passionate about spreading the gospel of God in unreached poor communities in Uganda.
Uganda is the poorest, the third largest refugee host country in the world and the largest refugee host country in Africa hosting over 1.5 million refugees, which 85% are children and women forced to flee from conflict and war in the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, Burundi, Somalia, and Rwanda leaving behind their homes, livelihoods, education and churches.
Why Build Church Africa (BCA) was formed.
​
Without Church, Christians are forced to pray under trees, in all weather in Uganda. They are exposed to the elements, distracted, and unable to pray. For those who do have some shelter, it is often unstable, with holes in the roof that let the rain in, leaving children, women, men cold wet, and destroy their work that forced to end the church services in the middle.
There are many Christians around the world who want to strengthen their faith. Some would like to learn the Bible, others would like to pray in safe church, thus Build Church Africa was formed valuable. Build Church Africa will support New Apostolic Churches, Catholic Churches, Baptist Church and other churches in Uganda.
Vision Statement
We ensure Christians are in safe and inspiring worshiping environments through churches infrastructure upgrades.
Mission Statement
