Light In The World Ministries Update May 2025

Acts 8:4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went everywhere preaching the word.

1 Peter 1:12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

“A rising tide raises all boats.” The open doors we have in the continent of Africa have given us the signal opportunity to affect individual pastors and churches, which further affects a change in the Body of Christ at large.  We must not undervalue the effectiveness of the preached Word through the power of the Holy Spirit.

We have recently completed full-time schools in the following countries:

Mbarara, Uganda: 40 Students graduated.  This is the second time we have been invited to run the training for an extensive pastor’s fellowship in this area.


Mahama, Rwanda:
36 students graduated, outside of Mahama refugee camp (60,000 refugees from Congo, Sudan, Afghanistan, Pakistan). Most of the pastors in this school operate churches within the camp.

Maradi, Niger: 26 students graduated, many of them come from very dangerous situations, pastoring under the threat of persecution from Islam.

Goma, Congo: 23 students graduated, after the recent distress and killings in this area we were able to take advantage of a season of peace and run the school.

There is a young man who recently graduated from the school. He was living on the streets, a Rastafarian drug addict. He got wonderfully born again and went through the School. After a season of fasting and prayer, the Lord convicted him about wasting his time scrolling on his cell phone. He repented, gave his phone away and is now using his time learning skills to provide for his future.  He is on fire for Christ, and ready to preach the gospel on the streets, churches and in the whole world.

Our next schools in June and July:

Tanzania
Bamako, Mali

(we have been invited to come run the school for a group of believers who are self-supporting the training)

Thank you for standing with us in prayer and concern for the training of these pastors and leaders. It is a privilege to be a part of what God is doing in His church all over Africa.
To God be all the Glory!

Psalms 119:114  Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.

Thank you for your prayers, we graduated schools in the month of April in the following areas.

Kampala              Uganda
Muhanga             Rwanda
Niamey                Niger

Uganda April. When it was suggested we run the school training in the capital city of Kampala Uganda, I was hesitant because it is notably difficult to get pastors in the capital cities to come to a four-week training daily from 6am to 7pm. So, I was surprised at the response.  We had 63 students who started the training, and 53 of them finished. 43 of them were senior pastors from the surrounding areas.  There has been an increased desire among the church leaders for the training we offer and a great hunger for God’s Word. We thank the Lord for what He did in the lives of these leaders!

Niger April. We continue to run this once yearly school in this country. We had 31 graduates,  17 of them are senior pastors.   Many of these pastors are leading churches in difficult situations.

“Did we in our own strength confide,
our striving would be losing,
were not the right Man on our side,
the Man of God’s own choosing.
You ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is he;
Lord Sabaoth his name,
from age to age the same;
and he must win the battle.”
