One highlight for us in March was a pastoral leadership training seminar of BIC pastors. Not all pastors are qualified or able to attend the 1-year or 3-year study programs at EBCoM, so seminars like these are critical for the growth and maturation of the church. Students were eager to listen and engage in the topics of salvation, the body of Christ, discipleship, Christ-like relationships and Biblical Truth.
Praise God for this initiative, the attention and response of the pastors and for God’s empowerment and working through the teachers and within the students.
Please continue to pray for these pastors as they complete follow-up assignments and engage in heart-changing learning through the Holy Spirit as they grow in Christ and shepherd the flocks under their care. The second training just concluded this first weekend in May with more in the planning stages.
May God use these training sessions to transform pastors, families, congregations and communities!
