Each student who attends the eight- week training program pays a portion of the cost of attendance. Your gifts toward the Ghana Discipleships Training Center help fund the portion they cannot afford. Thank you for sponsoring the education of Christian leaders who return to their communities all over West Africa with knowledge and renewed commitment.

Now those meals are being shared – with orphans down the street from our training center and with families in the far off Volta region. And children are playing with those toys, wearing those shoes. Every time food or shoes or toys are shared, the love of God is shared as well.

And that’s how you are changing the world – one meal, one pair of shoes, one child at a time. you for the difference you are making.

t greater than these.” –jesus, matthew 12:30-31
