Light In The World Ministries Update June – July 2026

Isaiah 52:1-2  Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. (2)  Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.

We have six schools running during June and July:

Rwanda, Burera
Uganda, Kampala
Togo, Lome
Tanzania, Geita
Nigeria, Mowe
and South Africa (supported by themselves)

We completed the school in Agbole, Ivory Coast at the end of May.  (Picture Below)

In this school, many of the pastors who attended struggled to pray. The primary reasons were wrong teaching and the poor examples that had been set before them regarding ministry. This had formed deep habits that were hard to break due to mental strongholds. But we rejoice in the goodness of God to strengthen our weak areas! By the end of the school, many of these pastors returned home strengthened and with an expanded capacity to seek God. They left, able not only to teach about prayer, but to be living examples of diligent prayer themselves.  Praise God!

School in Burera, Rwanda graduated June 5th.  (Picture Below)

Light In The World Ministries Update April – May

Psalms 43:3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

In this month of April, we have finished two more schools located in Mahama, Rwanda and Kampala, Uganda.  We thank God for the interest shown by the pastors in these trainings.  We have also started our school in Abidjan, Ivory Coast this month which will graduate on May 9th.

In Kampala, Uganda we had forty students, twenty-four of whom were senior church leaders.  One of the pastors wrote to the school after graduating.

“I sincerely thank you for your great support during our time at School of Christ Uganda. Thank you for teaching us faithfully, feeding us for these weeks, and for commissioning us into the work of the ministry.

Your investment in our lives has made a lasting impact on me. By the help of the Holy Spirit, I promise to put everything I have learned into practice and to allow the Holy Spirit to take more rule and control in my life each day.

May the Lord richly bless you and reward you abundantly.

With heartfelt gratitude,”

Abidjan, Ivory Coast, we started the class 14th April. It will run for four weeks

Upcoming Schools for the month of June.
Togo
Nigeria
Uganda
Rwanda
South Africa
(Self Supported)

Throughout these schools the constant emphasis is for the student to become the Truth they are learning.  Christ must be made real to the heart and in our yielding to His purpose, he must be allowed to live His Life through a human vessel. 

In each school the day begins with one hour of prayer and closes with another hour of prayer after eight lessons. The training lasts approximately four weeks.

Light In The World Ministries March 2025

Isaiah 40:9 O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God!

It has been a busy six weeks. We have run five schools in five different countries.  I believe the Lord has been greatly glorified and shown forth His Truth and Life in the midst of His people that have passed through the schools.

The following schools have been run this year so far.

Kampala, Uganda where we had 33 students graduate. One of the great testimonies, and one that is recurring in the schools, was a restoration of a broken marriage.  Thank God for His Life that cures all ills!

Gisenyi, Rwanda
Our second school was in Gisenyi, Rwanda. During this school fighting broke out in the neighboring city of Goma, but we were able to continue the School of Christ training.

Lome, Togo, is in West Africa.  We had 66 students graduate from three different countries represented (Benin, Togo and Ghana). Many students were senior pastors.

Abeokuta, Nigeria. We had 16 students graduate from the training. This is the second school we have run since our restart in this country last year. We appreciate your prayers for Nigeria.

Nkwenda, Tanzania. We had 31 students graduate. This is one of the many rural areas in Tanzania where there is a real hunger to receive the Word in fulness. We thank the Lord for the lives that are being changed as they give themselves to the Word of God and prayer!

Our next projected schools start in April in the following countries.
Uganda
Rwanda
Niger
Congo

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!
