Next Generation Worship Leaders
Music has the power to inspire, encourage, and bring people together in worship. For many young people, it is also an opportunity to discover their God-given gifts and use them to make a difference in the lives of others.
Through Marissa’s House Projects, we support Selah, a gospel music training initiative in Kireka, Uganda, created and led by Elijah Mugalu. Selah is dedicated to raising a generation of young people who grow in musical excellence, Christian character, and a genuine heart for God.
The vision goes beyond teaching music. It is about nurturing young men and women whose lives reflect Christ, who develop the skills to become self-sustaining, and who use their talents and abilities to bring glory to God.
How It Works:
Selah provides young people with hands-on music training and opportunities to discover, develop, and strengthen their God-given gifts. Students receive instruction in a variety of musical and creative disciplines, including:
Piano
Guitar
Bass Guitar
Drums
Voice and Vocal Training
Music Production
Video Editing
Song Composition
Through these opportunities, students develop their musical abilities while gaining valuable creative and technical skills that can open doors to future opportunities.
As they grow in their talents, they are also encouraged to grow in their faith, character, and understanding of how they can use their gifts to serve God and others.
Why It Matters:
For these young people, Selah represents more than a place to learn music. It is an opportunity to discover their purpose, build confidence, develop valuable skills, and become part of something greater than themselves.
By investing in both musical excellence and Christian character, Selah is helping prepare the next generation of worship leaders and young adults who can make a lasting impact in their communities.
Our hope is to see these students become individuals who are not only gifted musicians but also strong in their faith, equipped to support themselves, and passionate about using their abilities to honor God..
How You Can Help:
Our goal is to strengthen and improve Selah’s existing training center and recording studio by providing the resources students and instructors need to learn, practice, and create.
Funding will help purchase quality musical instruments, speakers, recording equipment, and a computer to enhance the training environment and expand the opportunities available to these young people.
Your support helps create an environment where God-given gifts can grow, musical abilities can flourish, and young lives can be shaped through faith, purpose, and opportunity.
Together, we can help raise a generation of young people who use their talents to worship God, inspire others, and make a lasting difference in the world around them.
