Friends, if you have not experienced a graduation ceremony at one of our institutions in Africa, you have missed a celebration! Yesterday over 100 men and women graduated with BTh and MA diplomas from West Africa Advanced School of Theology, and 3 men graduated with doctorates from Pan-Africa Theological Seminary. As I sat and pondered the increased effect that these graduates will have on the Kingdom of God in Africa as a result of their studies, I couldn’t help but rejoice. Thousands of family members, church members and well-wishers celebrated across the campus after the ceremony with food, music, drums, speeches, gifts, and more music. I feel sure that heaven celebrated with us!

I am privileged this week and the first part of next week to be here at the Graduate Studies Center on the East Africa School of Theology campus in Nairobi, Kenya with 18 master’s level students teaching Leadership Training Models. These students are God’s choice servants ministering in a variety of leadership capacities across East Africa. We have been enjoying some great times of interaction, sharing with each other and developing our own leadership capacities. We are also discussing ways we can raise up even more pastor-leaders for the 21 Assemblies of God churches that are currently being planted EVERY DAY across this great continent.
