Light in the World Ministries Update August 2025

(Mat 16:16-17)  And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Recently completed schools:     
Ouagadogou, Burkina Faso:
As we said in our previous newsletter, this has been our twelfth year running the school here. During this time, we have been able to reach many pastors and leaders in different parts of the country. Please continue to remember the graduates from Burkina Faso in your prayers. 

Runzewe, Tanzania: This school graduated in July with 22 pastors present and 6 evangelists. The Lord continues to open doors for future schools in Tanzania. (picture below)

Oudtshoorn, South Africa: This was one of the best schools I have ever had the privilege of running. The students were spiritually minded, receptive and asked very perceptive questions. We thank God for their spiritual hunger, the Lord’s provision and the people in leadership who carry a burden to see the school established in their country.  (Picture below)

Bamako, Mali. We have trained many former Muslim converts that are pastoring churches and daily hazarding their lives for the gospel.  It is a difficult environment, and we thank God for our director, who has traveled there to help oversee the schools over the years.  We had a total of 43 graduates in this school.

Schools presently running this August   
Rwanda – Kabarondo
Uganda – Rweminyafu
Ivory Coast – Abidjan

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.
