Our Missionaries
Ezekiel 37 Ministry has been blessed with several people who have committed their lives to serving the Lord in Uganda. Serving on this level is difficult to always be raising funds to make the mission trips. Below are their biographies. We ask for your prayers more than anything. However, if you'd like to contribute to their mission they would be most appreciative.
Rebecca "Becky" Sekamanya, Executive Director
Becky is one of the co-founders of Ezekiel 37 Ministry. She has been going to Uganda since January 2010. She moved to Uganda for a few years but is now back in Houston, Texas to raise her son, Jeremiah, in America.
"The people of Karamoja have changed my life forever. They have become my family. Karamoja feels like ‘home’. When I arrive there it’s like I can breathe again. My smile is wider. The sky is bluer, the clouds are whiter. The feeling is like no other.
I have a passion for education. By training I am a manager and bookkeeper because I was given the opportunity to attend college and obtain my Bachelor's Degree. I was the first in my family to finish college. The children of Karamoja deserve the same opportunity. They want a better life for themselves and their families. My vision is to 'Educate all of Karamoja'. This is definitely not a small task! But God is bigger than what I can even imagine is possible.”
Guiding scripture for life: "For I know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans for hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

Brandy Welsh, LPN
Brandy is one of the co-founders of Ezekiel 37 Ministry and has been going to Uganda since January 2010. Brandy is a nurse (LPN) by training. She has led triage in outdoor medical clinics that we've held in the villages as well as leading up the evangelism portion of our village outreaches. She has followed God's calling on her life by sharing the word of God with hundreds if not thousands of people in El Salvador, Haiti, Dominican Republic and Uganda.
"Have you ever had this yearning in your heart for as long as you can remember? It all started when I was a young child at my mom's feet telling her that one day I would go to Africa. As the years passed it turned into a much deeper desire to go into all the world and reach the unreachable for Jesus and share God's love. My heart would cry out for a people I had not yet met. I became a nurse to do mission work in Africa one day. When I was 26 years old I met my best friend, Becky Sekamanya, and Dr. David Dietrich. We were given an extraordinary opportunity to go to Uganda, Africa. We had all had a passion for Africa, but this would be our very first trip to Africa venturing where we felt called. Words can't describe what we felt inside. It was not an easy trip but we saw a great need. God spoke clearly to our hearts. Out of this we answered the call and Ezekiel 37 Ministry was born.
The people of Uganda flow through my veins. They are as much a part of me as the people in America. When I am in Uganda I certainly feel at home. When I am there I can breathe God's breath and feel His presence in such a tangible way that I can could just rest my head on His chest. I was born as a quiet little girl, but God has given me a boldness and faith to believe and share God in a powerful way through Him. It is only by His grace and power and He will get all the glory. I have seen things with my eyes and heart that nothing can shake this faith God has given me! He is worthy of all our praise!!!"
"The spirit of the Lord has anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;" Isaiah 61:1
