Poverty, distance, limited classrooms, and crowded schools leave many children and emerging leaders without a dependable path to learn.

Next generation leadership
What this ministry carries into the field.
The mission of Favor Schools is to educate the next generation of Uganda and South Sudan’s leadership on the Word of God, prayer, and academic excellence. Favor has long seen the need to continue walking further with Favor Primary students through their foundational education years while also offering Christ-centered, quality educational opportunities to secondary-age students who haven’t yet had the same opportunities afforded to them.
How it works - 01
The field-led response
Our Favor Secondary School opened to the public for the first time in February 2023. We have welcomed 135 registered students from all walks of life, religions, and income levels. We openly teach and practice the Word of God, and these amazing young men and women routinely come to know the love of Jesus as they pray and see God move.

The work continues
If we had the space, we could have easily welcomed 500. The response has been overwhelming. Many different social agendas and parents are crying for Christian education. We are seeing them grow in the Lord and receive quality education they wouldn’t have had much opportunity to have beforehand. As God provides, we will be able to meet the desperate needs of those on our waiting list.
The ministry in context
A need, a field-led response, and a path forward.

Favor’s approach
Learning begins close to home, continues through Christ-centered schools, and grows into training for teachers, ministers, and community leaders.
What comes next
Education is designed to form people who can serve their families, lead with character, and teach the generation following them.
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6

The Next Generation's Leaders
Excitement filled the Jondoru Village Learning Center (VLC) and Favor Primary School as each recently held a celebration for its graduates.
At both graduations, parents, teachers, and members from the community came together to show support and celebrate the accomplishments of the year and pray for the students as they continue onward. Many students also gave addresses or performances for their respective audiences.
