Calvary Ministries Choir Holds Powerful Gospel Crusade in Kyanamukaka, Masaka
Lukindu Village, Masaka | The air in Lukindu Village, Kyanamukaka Sub County, Masaka District, has been filled with praise, worship, and spiritual revival as the Calvary Ministries Choir of the Seventh-day Adventist Church leads a powerful gospel crusade that has attracted hundreds of people from the local community.
The ongoing crusade, which began earlier last week, has become a major spiritual event in the area, drawing villagers from all walks of life, including large numbers of young people and entire families. This evangelistic outreach, marked by inspiring Adventist music, heartfelt preaching, and public Bible study, is being held under large open-air tents and continues to gain momentum with each passing day.
The Calvary Ministries Choir, known for its deep spiritual message and melodious SDA-style gospel singing, has become a beacon of hope in the village, using music as a powerful tool to reach hearts. With harmonies rooted in the Adventist message of the soon return of Christ, the choir is not merely entertaining crowds — they are preaching through music.
According to Brother Andrew, one of the lead organizers of the crusade, “We have come to Lukindu not just to sing, but to bring the good news of Jesus Christ through the Three Angels’ Message. Music is our way of sharing hope and truth.”
A Village Responding to the Call
Lukindu Village, like much of Kyanamukaka Sub County, is traditionally dominated by Catholic Christianity. However, this crusade has marked a significant shift in spiritual engagement within the community. Local reports indicate that several individuals have already made decisions to join the Seventh-day Adventist Church, with many more undergoing Bible studies in preparation for baptism.
“This is the first time we are witnessing this kind of gospel event in our village. The music touched me deeply, and I want to learn more about the Seventh-day Adventist faith,” said Mrs. Regina Namusoke, a resident of Lukindu.
The positive reception to the crusade highlights the hunger for spiritual truth and hope among the people of Masaka. Several community leaders have expressed appreciation for the respectful and inclusive manner in which the choir has conducted itself, making it easier for people from different religious backgrounds to attend without fear of judgment or pressure.
The Power of Music in Ministry
The Calvary Ministries Choir’s approach emphasizes music as a frontline ministry. Their songs are drawn directly from Scripture and reflect the key doctrines of the Adventist Church, including the Sabbath, the Second Coming, the state of the dead, and healthful living. These songs are composed in local languages, including Luganda, to ensure the message reaches every heart.
This approach aligns with a broader movement within the SDA Church in Uganda to recognize and empower music ministries as vital instruments of evangelism, especially in rural and traditionally non-Adventist areas.
Elder Ssewajje, a district church elder assisting with the event, remarked, “This crusade is proof that music is not just a supplement to preaching—it is a sermon in itself. The choir softening hearts and preparing them for the Word.”
Baptisms Expected
As the crusade continues through the week, preparations are underway for a baptismal service on Sabbath, with dozens expected to make public commitments to join the Adventist Church. Bible workers are currently following up with interested attendees, ensuring that their decision is informed, prayerful, and grounded in Scripture.
The church leaders in Masaka District have praised the Calvary Ministries Choir for choosing Lukindu as a mission target, pointing out that it reflects the vision of taking the gospel to hard-to-reach and often overlooked communities.
The Goal
The Lukindu gospel crusade is expected to continue until Sabbath, July 19, with daily programs featuring Bible expositions, personal testimonies, health talks, and, of course, vibrant Adventist singing.
As villagers gather under the stars each evening, one thing is clear: something is happening in Lukindu. A spiritual revival is stirring, and the message is being carried not just by word, but by song. The Seventh-day Adventist Church is gaining a new foothold in Masaka — one voice at a time.
May we always shine in glory as we continue to preach through music to every Corner of the world till His return
