Where Ugandan preachers like Pastor Jackson Senyonga get money


If you have been following the trend these days, it is of Pastors cruising in hummers and all the new models of range rovers. Just like you might notice, it is also said of how all these pastors were either roasting cassava at the roadside long ago, how they lost all their parents, how they used to be street children and a lot of such stuff. You’ve heard it, don’t deny! Except if your pastor is Pastor Jackson Senyonga of Christian Life Church.
First, he breaks our cycle of hummer and Lamborghinis. He prefers to ride in a simple harrier! Yes, you are right. Just a harrier and above all this, he shares the same car with his wife and children. Hahahahaha… I am also laughing at this unlike my facebook friend Barbra who just said LOL.
Well, it happens to be that Passtor Senyonga Jackson, who is one of the founders and current pillars of Pentecostalism in Uganda, also owns the leading Christian Television and chain of radio stations in Uganda. He also built and runs orphanage homes that shelter and feed over 1,000 needy and orphaned children.
Having been orphaned at an early age, it seems Jackson Senyonga was humbled by the situation then (I know my friend Joe won’t agree with this) and thus decided to keep it simple. Now, let’s leave his humble way of life and focus on the heading, time is running out.
The huge following Pastor Jackson Senyonga has, both in Uganda and the United states, is making the figures for him in the bank! But more seemingly, it is the number of friends he has accumulated over time abroad as a result of his humble nature that makes him always give accountability for the donations they make.

Speaking to one of his staff that preferred anonymity, “PJ is always on the run checking for any faults in the finance department. He made sure there are 2 functioning offices, with 1 in the US just for cross checking how every donation is used”. Wow!!! And his staff? He chooses to advertise job opportunities emphasizing  Christianity especially when it comes to handling money.
There you go.
