The goal is to show God’s love and care through education. We are planning on having care centers for children in various parts of the country. Currently we are based in Busembatia on 25 acres of land and aim at helping 10,000 children and orphans.

Most Recent Update
There are four Agape Christian Schools started and founded by Patrick and Felister Baligasima to help teach community children, Pastors, children, orphans whose parents have died of HIV/AIDS, street children, and very poor children. The schools have students from all over Uganda and have various religious backgrounds. The vision is to lead children to Jesus through daily morning prayers, short messages, and through acts of love and mercy. There are 1900 children in these Agape Christian Schools ranging from 3 years of age to 22 years of age. Over 450 have been orphaned by poverty, AIDS, war and internal displacement. In the Spring of 2008, the primary schools boasted the highest scores for their standard exams in the district!

Agape Christian Schools use the iVangeli Bible curriculum, developed in South Africa by Gospel Light Worldwide, to supplement their other study materials.
