6.8.5. Initiative Ministry
In Partnership with Pambazuka Ministires Uganda
Our Widows Program
God has called each one of us to minister to a suffering world. We may not be able to help everyone, but we can do something to help change the world of one woman at a time. God has given us no greater task than to relieve someone else's pain.
​
The 6.8.5. Initiative and Pambazuka Ministries have chosen to stand in the gap for a small group of homeless elderly widows who have fallen through the cracks of society. Our plan is to care for 2 to 4 elderly widows who will live out their last years at the Selah Rescue Center.
​
The widows will reside permanently at the Selah Rescue Center as a peaceful resting place to call home and a place where they receive proper nutrition, medical care, and love
in their final years.
​
Selah Rescue Center is a place where hurting and forgotten women come to discover their worth in God's eyes as well as discover how much God loves them.

Miria getting stronger at Selah Rescue Center.
At 105 years old, Miria came to the Selah Rescue Center in February 2025 very weak and malnurished. She needed surgery, but we had to get her healthy in order to survive the surgery.
After 6 months in our care, she was strong enough to endure the surgery and the picture above is Miria with the 2 doctors who performed the surgery.
James 1:27 - Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
