Rev. David Turyatemba

Co-Founder Set Free Ministries /

Director of the Born to Win Skilling Center

Together David and Petronilla are the founders of Set Free Intl Ministries, Glory Release Church and New Planet Primary School.

I am David Turyatemba, I was saved in 1989 and am a Ugandan. I am a journalist and a Pastor of Set Free Ministries / Glory Release Church in the slums of Kampala in Uganda.

I have worked as a freelancer with several radio stations writing articles/stories majoring in political, health, and environmental reporting here in the slums of Kampala.

I received a call of God upon my life in 2000; by 2004 April the Lord Called us into ministry (Glory Release Church / Set Free Ministries) in the slums of Kampala.

We are committed to serving the Lord and fulfilling the Great Commission of expanding the Kingdom of God as directed by our Lord Jesus Christ.

In December 2003 I married my sweetheart Petronilla, we have been married for 19 years and are proud parents of three daughters Destiny, Prudence, and Sandra.

Currently, I am the Director of the Born to Win Skilling Center and my passion is to see vulnerable people employing and sustaining themselves. The Skilling Center was established to address psycho-social and economic problems among widows, abandoned women, orphans, and youth in Kampala and nearby areas.

Through training, we target to train vulnerable people in different skills such as Soap Making and Liquid detergents, Sewing and Tailoring, Knitting, (Cosmetology) Hair Dressing, and Leather Tanning (making shoes, bags, belts, and key holders). After training, they will be qualified to produce good quality products leading to profitable small businesses to sustain their families and improve their living conditions.
