About GPG Church
Generation Praise God Church was founded by Pastor Mary M. Begumisa (Mrs.) as the senior Pastor who was born; July/21/1975. Mary got born again since year 2003 and committed her life to Christ Jesus, a wife, mother of three daughters and a servant of God. Mary believes in the word of God, salvation, hard work, patience, love to one another, forgiveness among others.
It started as a fellowship at Home when Mary would fellowship with her husband, children and a few friends in their rented apartment on saturdays after a week’s work since both Mary and her husband were Government civil servants way back in year 2006. Mary later followed her calling as she knew ever since she was a child in 1988 that God had called her for serving Him (Jeremiah 18: 1-6). The Lord our God has all power and authority to make us anything he finds fit.
Having been raised from a humble family, became an orphan at age 13, struggled through studying but still God raised her up to University with a degree in Social Sciences from Makerere University, she is so grateful to God for His mercy upon her life. For this, Mary resigned her job as a Senior chief administrator at Sub-County level which she had done for eight years so as to be self employed and allowing her more time to serve God. She is now a Director – Gorilla Trek Africa (www.rwandagorilla.com) a business that helps her to earn a living and uses her tithe to serve God in the Ministry.
The Church was renting space for one year 2014 and by June/2015 God opened a door and we bought a piece land for the Church with three good tents where we praise, worship and give our thanks to God.
Generation Praise God Church has seen the grace of God and we trust God for blessing us every day of our lives. For the verse that God gave Mary and has since kept her moving is ” Matthew 6:33″.
“We love you all and may God richly bless you”
What We Believe
We believe that the Bible is God’s Word. It is accurate, authoritative and applicable to our everyday lives.
We believe in one eternal God who is the Creator of all things. He exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He is totally loving and completely holy.
We believe that sin has separated each of us from God and His purpose for our lives.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is coming back again as He promised.
We believe that in order to receive forgiveness and the ‘new birth’ we must repent of our sins, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and submit to His will for our lives.
We believe that in order to live the holy and fruitful lives that God intends for us, we need to be baptized in water and be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit enables us to use spiritual gifts, including speaking in tongues.
We believe in the power and significance of the Church and the necessity of believers to meet regularly together for fellowship, prayer and the ‘breaking of bread’.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ as both God and man is the only One who can reconcile us to God. He lived a sinless and exemplary life, died on the cross in our place, and rose again to prove His victory and empower us for life.
We believe that God has individually equipped us so that we can successfully achieve His purpose for our lives which is to worship God, fulfil our role in the Church and serve the community in which we live.
We believe that God wants to heal and transform us so that we can live healthy and blessed lives in order to help others more effectively.
We believe that our eternal destination of either Heaven or hell is determined by our response to the Lord Jesus Christ.
