      Giving

Making it easy for you to make a difference!
Through your gift you can help us in taking the Gospel Light to the people of Africa.

The best way to give is through our local Church or through BIMI (Mission Board).
By giving this way you are assured of Fiscal Responsibility and you will also receive a Receipt for Tax Purposes.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND MONEY DIRECTLY TO US HERE IN UGANDA!
There have been many times that our mail has been slightly opened in search of money.  If you send a check it may be stolen and altered.

If you would like to send a care package or ministry materials then please send it directly to us at:

James or Cheryl Pridgen
P.O. Box 33758 Kampala
Uganda, East Africa

The following information shows how you can give from within the United States, Canada, or from other parts of the world.
(There is also an article on "The Blessing of Giving")

You can further designate your gift by marking it as:
 Pridgen - EABC (East Africa Baptist College); Pridgen - ministry projects; Pridgen - Sudan;

If you just mark your gift with our name - Pridgen - then we will consider it as a general donation.

THE BLESSING OF GIVING

Philippians 4:16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.
17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.
19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

As we give to Missions we are taking a part in the work that is being done.  Through your gifts we are able to help the needy, share the Gospel, start churches, train men and women in the Lord's work, and every week we are seeing people saved.  You may not be here in Africa, but through your giving we are able to be here.  Through your giving and our being in Africa we are doing the work of the ministry together.

Through your giving you are laying up treasure in Heaven {Philippians 4:17-fruit added to your account (Matthew 6:20)}.  The Bible also shows us that our giving is well pleasing to the Lord, and that He will take care of our needs (Philippians 4:18-19).

We do greatly appreciate your gift and it is our prayer that we can continue to work together in helping others and in serving the Lord.

Please continue to visit our website so that you can know how the Lord is blessing.  If you would like to pray for us on a regular basis or if you would like to give on a regular basis then you can also receive a letter in the mail by contacting BIMI and asking them to add you to our mailing list.  The Letters that we would send you are also the same that we are posting on our website.
