Glory Flow Farm

What Has Happened So Far

A Vision Becomes Reality

In spring 2022, Dauglas and Melanie Wanjala felt a strong call to start a farm on an inherited family property in eastern Uganda.

At that time, they had no financial means at all. Yet they stepped out in faith—and soon witnessed amazing provision: funds came together for the first steps such as clearing the land, building shelters and a goat pen. The first mango trees were planted, animals purchased, and staff employed.

Two Years of Building From Afar

For more than two years, the Glory Flow Farm was managed from Germany while the family lived in Bad Soden am Taunus. The work brought great challenges—poisoned animals, hostility from neighboring villages, and health attacks against Dauglas.

And yet, right in the middle of these struggles, encouraging developments began to emerge: young people found work, a place for exchange, and spiritual inspiration on the farm. First income from agriculture became possible, and the vision kept growing.

The Step to Uganda

In summer 2024, the decision was made: the family would follow the call fully. Dauglas resigned from his job in Germany and went ahead to establish further structures. Since early 2025, the entire family has been living on-site in Uganda.

For Melanie and the children, their first visit to the farm—into which they had invested so much from afar—was an especially moving moment.

Economic Development & Spiritual Growth

One key focus is building sustainable sources of income:

• Of the 500 chicks purchased, around 180 laying hens remain, currently producing about 50 eggs per day—with the goal of soon reaching 100–150 per day.

• A second chicken coop was built through a generous donation. ♡

• All animals have been vaccinated.

• Feed for the animals is now being cultivated, and goat farming is being optimized.

• Talks are underway about purchasing an adjacent plot of land to expand—potentially for more feed cultivation, a small restaurant, or guest lodging.

At the same time, the heart of the work remains the relational and spiritual ministry:
Young people help on the farm, participate in Bible Discovery Studies, and receive encouragement, guidance, and community. Partnerships with local churches are also beginning to grow.

Current Status (Spring 2025)

• The Wanjala family now lives permanently in Uganda.

• Poultry production has started, and first income is flowing in.

• Building a reliable farm team is in progress.

• Regular gatherings with young people and Bible study groups are taking place.

• New partnerships are forming, e.g. with a pastor from Busia.

What’s Next

• Kurchase of the adjacent plot of land for expansion (goal: €9,300)

• Strengthening the farm team—reliable, motivated staff are needed

• Spiritual ministry & discipleship through Discovery Bible Studies and personal mentoring

• Expanding infrastructure: purchase of a small second vehicle, furnishing of the house, and long-term plans for a pool & guest facilities

• Ongoing monthly funding for operating costs and investments
  

The Glory Flow Farm sees itself as a place of life-changing hope—through agriculture, education, community, and lived-out faith.

“Gratitude that does not depend on circumstances …” – this is how the Wanjala family describes their daily attitude.
Their vision remains clear: to transform and develop their environment through fruitful discipleship and sustainable agriculture.
