Ssenyonga said the church was put in place to rehabilitate and help people.
“We have been helping different people within, and would also send mobile money to those who are far away, through mobile money, something we used to do even before the pandemic started,” he said.
Christian Life Church has donated items like food, soap, and sugar, among other items worth sh300m, to the flock.

''The LCs are going to
help us identify needy people in their communities and we shall
distribute the food to them,” Ssenyonga said, adding that he will be
working with the National Pastors’ Alliance during the distribution of
items in different parts of the country.
Ssenyonga said that places of worship were affected after a lockdown was imposed on the country, but that heaven did not close its gates.
He also said that the church is having more followers than ever before because the gospel is being broadcast on different media.
“If the President was to uplift a lock on churches and places of worship, we shall have to preach in shifts as we observe the Health ministry guidelines,” he said.
Sanyu Muwannguzi a resident of Bwaise thanked God, and Pastor Ssenyonga who has provided to them during the hard times of the lockdown. She also applauded the National task force that provided them with relief food.
Coronavirus: Pr. Kayanja launches bucket project

CORONAVIRUS PASTOR KAYANJA
In a bid to bolster efforts against the spread of the novel coronavirus diseases (COVID- 19), Pastor Robert Kayanja of Miracle Centre Cathedral has launched a philanthropy drive to distribute basic necessities to the most vulnerable families.
The charity campaign dubbed a ‘bucket project’ in which 5.1 metric tons of maize flour, bars of soap, Dettol, sugar, and rice will be given to at least 500 homesteads daily for the next 30 days will begin Friday in Kisenyi, a slum in Kampala.
“The war is now at our doorsteps and I want to thank all those that are supporting efforts against the enemy but this is the time to think about the most vulnerable among us. We are all in this and if we don’t save the needy ones, who knows you might be the next in line,” Kayanja told journalists yesterday.
He added: “The President has been very clear, we need to be hygienic and stay at home but our society has a person that don’t have the basics to wash hands and that’s what the bucket project is here for.
Our children are at home but if a parent can’t afford sugar and flour, the child will loiter around for food that’s why we are giving items to those that need them to assist them in the 30 days we are supposed to be home.”
Kayanja used the platform to call upon all able Ugandans to donate whatever they can to the needy during this time of crisis arguing that, “I might afford soap and rice but if my neighbor doesn’t, they will bring the virus to my door in search for food so let’s all get working.
For individuals and organizations that want to do a similar thing, our ministries can train you on the best distribution model but we also appeal to traders not to hike prices of commodities as their way of giving back to the community.”
He also called upon Government to consider a total shut down of public transport if the fight against the rapid spread of COVID-19 is to be curtailed.
He argued that a shutdown of public transport would effectively contain unnecessary movements to allow authorities to identify COVID affected people and isolate them from the public to avoid further spread.
“A total shutdown of public transport can save almost 50% of this country from the COVID spread. I appeal to the President to give all people that use that kind of transport at least a two days ultimatum to travel either upcountry or to urban centers if they want which can be followed by a total shutdown for at least 14 days to help identify infected people because the movements will be minimal,” said Kayanja.
President Yoweri Museveni in his fourth nation address on Tuesday said he is monitoring the public transport system on whether they are enforcing guidelines like passengers washing hands, stopping those with cough and flu from boarding and overcrowding.
Authorities this week ordered 14 seater commuter taxis to reduce passengers taken to only 8. Uganda has so far recorded nine cases of Coronavirus, all Ugandan nationals who travelled from Dubai and the United Arab Emirates.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has expressed concern that poverty and lack of facilities such as health care and proper public transport might fuel the spread of COVID-19.
