Things to know about Salvation Messenger International
Co-Work in Uganda: The Empowerment Ministry
This grassroots movement is led by Bishop Kabagambe Adonia, who oversees several churches in Uganda. We met during my visit in 2020 and quickly formed a friendship rooted in a shared belief in the worth of every person. Together, we committed to helping people recognize their God-given value, grow in faith, and build stronger communities.
Our vision is to bring hope to thousands of Ugandans and expand this work into Kenya and throughout Central Africa. Through encouragement, gospel teaching, and practical education, we seek to inspire lasting change in individuals, families, and communities.
Our teaching and community goals include:
- Encouraging attitudes and habits that support good health, spiritual growth, and financial well-being.
- Building self-esteem, self-respect, and an appreciation of each person’s gifts.
- Deepening knowledge of God and His love.
- Celebrating African history, cultural heritage, and values that strengthen communities.
- Encouraging care for the environment.
- Developing practical life and vocational skills.
- Supporting agriculture and the responsible use of modern technology.
- Promoting children’s education and opportunities for the future.
- Addressing poverty through learning, cooperation, and practical action.
- Bringing people of different tribes, cultures, faiths, and communities together through mutual respect while sharing the knowledge and love of God.
At the heart of this work is the renewal of the mind—turning away from the works of the flesh and growing in the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

Humble Beginnings
Salvation Messenger International is a nondenominational ministry that welcomes everyone with a desire to grow in faith.
Our ministry began in Birmingham, Alabama, where we provided meals for people experiencing homelessness and established a small church of approximately 25 to 30 people. We later returned to Michigan, serving alongside other ministries and continuing to share God’s love.
Our journey then led us to Harrison, Arkansas, where we hosted a home church and shared the gospel through tent meetings. During that time, we also explored the opportunity to continue the work of a church whose pastor, a friend of ours, was preparing to retire.
Afterward returning to Michigan in 2014, I continued partnering with ministries and supporting mission work. I have traveled around the world in the Navy. I went on a mission trip to Uganda in 2020 and another to Kenya in 2022, this time witnessing firsthand the hardships many families face and the importance of offering both spiritual encouragement and practical support. My latest assignment was serving for a year and a half as pastor of Good Shepherd Christian Fellowship in Gladwin, Michigan.
Today, I continue sharing the message of salvation through online teaching and other platforms, reaching people across communities and borders. As I reflect on this journey, I am grateful for God’s guidance every step of the way.
I invite you to explore Salvation Messenger International, discover the work underway, and reach out if you would like to join us in serving others and sharing the love of God.
