In March of 2015, they started the Independent Baptist Church of Kasese and also opened Rwenzori Baptist College. God has provided them with 3 plots of land in the center of Kasese town. God has provided for them to construct a church building and a multi-purpose building for Sunday School classrooms, Bible college classrooms and dormitories for their four year Bible college. Other ministries they are involved in are preaching to the police, jail ministry, Fishing through Footballing, a deaf Sunday School class, translating Bible material into Lhukonzo, planting other churches in other towns and villages, and Rwenzori Mountain Ministry.
