Justice in Africa: God's Heart for the poor


Mob justice. Corruption. Exorbitant court fees. These are just some of the problems that people in Mozambique and Uganda face when trying to access justice.

But thanks to you, BMS World Mission is doing something about it.




Christian lawyers in Africa are standing up for the poor and marginalised. They’re helping people like Sarah in Uganda, a widow who fell into legal trouble after her husband died.

Whether it’s through legal representation, mediation or legal education, BMS-supported lawyers are helping the oppressed find justice.

Watch the video below to find out how your support is helping Christian lawyers in Mozambique and Uganda stand up for those who need it.
