Christmas in Africa is a mission program of the Palma Ceia Presbyterian Church administered through its Witness & Service session committee. It began in 2007 with the idea of giving a gift to a loved one, while at the same time helping another.
We felt called to give a gift to people who needed what was given. Often times a gift would mean the difference between life and death to the one in need. We found our recipients in the small village in southeastern Uganda called Papoli. This was the result of Dr. Sylvia Campbell answering an e-mail cry for help from a 15 year old girl who was in desperate need of heart surgery unavailable in Uganda.

When this child was brought to the states for a successful surgery, we all fell in love with her and the people in her village. Thus Christmas in Africa was begun as a way for the village people to help themselves.
Gifts needed are listed here. You can give gifts in the name of a loved one that range from a single chicken, to a mosquito net, to a house for a widow and the orphans living with her, to sponsoring a college education for one of the many bright young people from the village through donations to the Wallof Scholars Program. To date we have helped five village young people graduate with honors from Ugandan universities. All have found productive employment.
In January, all gift items will be delivered to Papoli, Uganda, and the gifts will be distributed to the villagers.
Since the inception of this mission, over $200,000 of gifts have been given through the generosity of church members in the name of Jesus Christ. Won’t you join us in making the Christmas special for one of our friends in Papoli, Uganda?
