I am the LORD, and I do not change. That is why you descendants of Jacob are not already destroyed. Malachi 3:6 As we look back at 2015 and ahead to 2016, there is one thing we know. God’s Word says –

Second, we shall continue to COMFORT the afflicted by taking care of those who are hurting physically, emotionally and spiritually. That is what the C in PCM shall represent.

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives and freedom to prisoners. Isaiah 61:1

Finally, the M in PCM will now stand for MULTIPLY. He has called us to grow His Kingdom in so many ways. We want to be obedient and multiply the gifts He has provided. Furthermore, we want Him to multiply many disciples for His Glory.

“I will surely bless you and I will surely multiply you.” Hebrews 6:14

Let us all go and Proclaim, Comfort and Multiply.

With Much Love,

Mark and Monica BarretPCM USA Directors

He is our Rock and our salvation. He never

changes, but He calls us to change all the time so

we can move with Him. PCM is less than a decade

old, and we know He is moving us to a new level.

We are changing our PCM motto to better

reflect the way we minister.

Through Him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Romans 5:2

Our first priority should and always will be to PROCLAIM His Glory. That is what we shall DO first from now on. That is what the P in PCM shall represent. God’s Word says,

With Jesus’ help we will continually offer our sacrifice of praise to God by telling others of the glory of His name. Hebrews 13:15

PROCLAIM - Psalm 96:2-3 “Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day. Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples.”

Churches, Conferences, CrusadesReaching thousands of Ugandans with the Gospel

In Uganda there will always be Sunday morning celebration. It will be the highlight of the week and will leave your heart full so that you can be poured out throughout the rest of the week. Whether you’re worshiping in one of our 70+ churches or in a local prison where a PCM pastor invests his time, there will be praising, there will be crying out to God, and there will be joy.

Sunday morning is just the warm up. Each day there is an opportunity for sharing the love of Jesus through door-to-door evangelism or organizing a conference for pastors, women, children or marriages.

When Sunday evening arrives and the sun begins to set, you will hear from blocks away energizing music and loud cheers. They are coming from a local crusade where people from all around have come for hope, healing, and salvation.

Our PCM churches are serious about the Gospel and seeing lives changed. They are passionate about the message of Jesus because He has given them life and life more abundantly!

PROCLAIM

THE WORD OF GOD - Imagine hearing stories about God’s love but never having the opportunity to read them for yourself.

Imagine listening to pieces of the Gospel but never getting the full picture.

What we have on our shelves and at our disposal are priceless treasures that people desire every day to possess.

It's the Word of God.This year our eyes have been opened to how many people have never seen the Word of God in their own language. They have listened intently as pastors share stories and truths, but they have never had the opportunity to study on their own.

Until you have seen the face of someone receiving his first Bible, you have not seen joy in its purest form. It’s a reminder that God’s Word is a love letter to each one of us, and He’s asking us to deliver it to His children.

PROCLAIM

Page 6: 2015 Annual Report and Gift Catalog

Throughout the years of PCM one phrase continues to be a reminder of how God has worked.

“Do not despise humble beginnings”

Who would have thought 10 years ago when Pastor Emmy and Supermom sold their house and gave all that they had to share the love of Jesus with some forgotten children that one day these would be the same children proclaiming the name of Jesus to hundreds of thousands of Ugandans!

Glory FM is our newest way to PROCLAIM the Gospel in Uganda. Operated by some of PCM’s original orphans as well as some wonderful new talent, this radio station has the purpose of sharing Jesus through uplifting songs, preaching, and prayer.

Most people in rural Uganda do not have electricity, but they all have a radio. So whether they are farmers or shepherds, they will have the chance to tune their radios to 106.7 and find salvation!

GLORY FM - Reaching millions of Ugandans with the gospel

PROCLAIM

Page 7: 2015 Annual Report and Gift Catalog

How do you break down the walls between a church in Texas, a park in Louisiana, a public school in Michigan, a governor’s office in Ohio, a back yard in Indiana, and a community center in Illinois? You do it with the innocence of children who display the radiance of the joy of the Lord through singing about hope.

These children brought their own stories of poverty, loss, and suffering and were able to connect with people and share about the compassion of their Savior and the plans He is revealing in them. We are in awe of the ways God used this choir and so many gracious supporters to share hope with thousands of people in six states.

PCM CHOIR - Highlights from Choir Tour 3

“We had a blast watching Timothy and Duncan experience America for the first time (car wash- hilarious!!!!!, restaurant, turning the water off in the shower every minute so that wa-ter was not wasted, trying indoor exercise equip-ment, hearing of the relationship they feel with PCM and visitors, hearing how Jesus changed their lives. Our family realizing that we have too much “stuff” that drains our joy more than fuel-ing it. Aftermath: Our kids asking if we could go to Uganda instead of vacation this year.” – Kelly Miller

“We enjoyed Javura taking the initiative to prepare breakfast for us and teach us a few things.” – Fred and Donna DeGraaf

“Praying for Javura and Big Milly and them praying for us. Getting a personal concert in the car. Putting our arms around them and sharing our love with them.” – Karen Nelson

“Sharing stories and seeing Laban and Timo-thy perform with the soccer team joining in.” – Amy Stratbucker

“Listening to Abias and Gaudy laugh, watching our wedding video as a family and learning about the differences in culture. That they called us “mom” and “dad” (we don’t have children yet)” – Julie and Paul Weis

“Big Milly and Harriet shopped with me and then prepared a Ugandan meal for us. It was delicious.” – Kay Green

“The formal dress fashion show with Abias and Jovia! And the Ugandan dinner we were treated to.” – Dee Dee Ball

Kate ClinicOur staff at the Kate Clinic has been able to comfort hundreds of patients and their families this year.

In the past, people in the village of Kyassenya and surrounding areas did not have any good option for medical care. A clinic within 30 miles may seem close to some of us, but to a suffering Ugandan with no transportation it was worthless. With the opening of the Kate Clinic lives are being saved and hope is being restored.

No more will they have to suffer in their homes from treatable diseases or visit witch doctors for some shred of false hope. Men, women, and children are being treated for malaria, typhoid and other diseases by well qualified, Jesus loving people. As we’ve seen how God is using our Kate Clinic staff, we are excited to be building staff housing so that they can live on site instead of walking several miles to work everyday.

COMFORT

COMFORT - 2 Cor 1:3-4 “All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.”

Omwana House Sometimes living out the Gospel can be as simple as helping fulfill a promise of Scripture. When Jesus said “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you” (John 14:18), He was revealing the work of the Holy Spirit through the lives of His people. This year we have seen this Scripture come to life in the opening of a loving home for orphaned and abandoned babies.

The Omwana (Baby) House is also a safe haven where families can turn for help when hope is lost. Our goal is to wel-come babies who would otherwise be left on the streets without a chance to be in a home that will nurture and love them. We also pray for opportunities to minister to their families, to encourage and teach them how to care for and love their babies.

As we are blessed with the opportunity to speak truth into the lives of these families, our hope and prayer is to one day reconcile the children with them. If this is not

possible, we praise the Lord that these babies will have loving nannies who will raise and nurture them until they are of age to join a PCM school.

We are just beginning to minister through the Omwana House and we look forward to

MULTIPLY - Matt 28:19 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”

PCM SchoolsAs we continue to obey, God continues to MULTIPLY our efforts to raise up disciples in Uganda. All of our five schools are thriving, and our secondary school, Katyazo, is preparing to graduate our first full class in December 2016.

When each of our primary schools were started, many children from the village were given the opportunity to go to school for the first time. Each year as the students have progressed, we have added on a grade. This year Rwemikoma sent its first students to high school at Katyazo. Soon, Sanga and Kyassenya will follow, giving every student the opportunity to go as far as their faith and ambition will allow.

Our plans to move our Mbarara school to the land at Katyazo are coming closer to completion with the finishing touches being put on the new school. Gone will be the days of 400 children sharing 4 acres of land. These students will enjoy the beautiful 100+ acres at Katyazo and go to school in respectable classrooms.

MULTIPY

Farms and Business

Uganda is largely an agricultural society with 99% of people in the village growing their own food. Whether they have acres of land or just a small patch by their hut, they will have corn, bananas, and beans growing for their family.

One goal of PCM is to help our schools and pastors become as self-sufficient as possible. Through generous donors we have been able to provide cows for 70 pastors and over 100 acres of land to grow food for our schools. These gifts will help feed our people and generate income.

Our newest adventure is going to be building an Enkoko (Chicken) House on our land at Katyazo to help provide eggs and chicken for our children. This house will be more like a chicken mansion, housing 1,600 chickens!

Partnering with One Egg and Cobb-Vantress, we hope this will become an excellent source of protein for our children and income for our ministry. Please pray for us as this chicken house becomes a reality in mid 2016.

FARMS AND BUSINESS - God has gifted the Ugandan people with some wonderful talents.

When someone sponsors a child, the thirty- five dollars a month helps to provide the physical needs of that child along with a top notch Christian education. The children are so thankful for this opportunity that was never available for the generations before them.

However, if there is one thing that will make them light up the most it is seeing a letter from their sponsor! These children cherish the re-lationship they have with their parents across the ocean, and they pray for their sponsors every day! If you sponsor a child you can know that a child is interceding for you from around the world. There are a thousand children whose lives have been changed by our sponsors, but there are also a thousand families here whose lives have been enriched by their Ugandan child. Let your child know how much he or she means to you today. They will cherish your words and be spurred on to do even more for the Kingdom!

Lisa Patrick“We love sponsoring with PCM because of the personal relationships we get to build with our sponsor children through frequent letter exchanges. It is a privilege to be a part of their lives as they live out God’s plan for them on the other side of the world.”

Dave Dow“My decision to sponsor Treasure was easy as I met her when I visited Mbarara last year. One only has to spend a few moments with one of these children to know how special they are.”

Kristi Peer“My family and I sponsor 3 precious children through PCM. I guess at first we thought we’d sponsor to help provide

a healthy, successful start to life as every child needs. I didn’t realize that the contribution would return such a reward. I was actually gaining family, friends, prayers, love, encouragement, treasured letters, and trusted sons and daughters. I sponsor and continue to sponsor because of the real, life-long connection I have to my 3 children in Uganda and ALL of their family and friends. We need each other and God brought us together through PCM.”

Mark and Stephanie Leonard“My first thought as I looked through the books of each child that needed to be sponsored was: Every child deserves the opportunity to grow up to change his world for Christ. If Mark and I can share Christ through our love, prayers, and sponsorship then we have succeeded in helping him to believe that he can make a difference in his country. There are NO words to describe the joy and blessing that we receive through spon-soring Rodger and Stallon!”

SPONSORSHIP - Correspondence is the key to a thriving sponsorship program at PCM.

So much of our ministry at PCM is simply sharing how God is working in Uganda and how people can be a part of it. We wish that everyone could visit our Ugandan family to see the joy and hope that we have learned from them, but the next best thing is to capture that joy and hope in images.

We are so thankful for photographers who see the ministry in capturing these images. This magazine shares our heart in large part because of Matt Hogan and Gracie Byrd Jones’ images.

Thank you for using your talent for His glory!
