Kampala & the islands of Lake Victoria · Since 1982

The gospel to the nations, and a home for the forgotten.

Evangelist Drake Kanaabo has ministered in over 51 nations. At home, the same ministry runs a children’s home, the island’s only major health centre and three schools — because God values a single soul far above gold or silver.

Who we are

A life given to the harvest field.

Drake has ministered in over 51 nations around the world, conducting mass evangelistic crusades and training evangelists. Drake and Josephine serve and fellowship with their home church on Bussi Island, Uganda, and have been part of it since 1982.

  • Open-air crusades that gather entire communities
  • Schools of evangelism that multiply local labourers
  • A children’s home, a health centre and schools on the islands
Our ministries

Five works, one calling.

It began with preaching. It grew into a bed, a nurse, a classroom and a name someone remembers.

Evangelism

Kanaabo Evangelistic Ministries

Mass evangelistic crusades in over 51 nations, and the Kanaabo School of Evangelists that puts the same work into other hands. This is where the ministry began — the children’s home, the clinic and the schools all grew out of it.

Education

Talemwa Schools

Education institutions set up so our orphaned children can attain a decent education — life skills and, above all, the values of the Kingdom of God. Three institutions: Nursery, Primary and High School.

Since 2009TeachingPrayer network

One of the primary missions of the Church is to win lost souls to the Lord. Since God values souls far more than gold or silver, we are here on a mission — to spread this life-changing gospel in the shortest possible time, using every effective strategy available.

The reach

Fifty-one nations, and one island.

The same ministry that fills a crusade ground in another country runs the home, the clinic and the schools that the children of Bussi Island depend on every day.
