This year, Paraklete funded a completely national training session of the pastoral training school.  We were able to provide for each pastor's travel, food, housing, and financial gift for their church, covering all expenses for the pastors or their supporting churches.  Men from the area led the sessions in a national-on-national focus, unadulterated by American culture or the need for translators to deliver the teaching.

The training school has developed greatly, with more and more Christian men and women seeking to learn from God's Word.  Through God's leading and direction, we are seeing His Word not returning void as these brothers and sisters in Christ take what they have learned and teach others.  Heaven alone will show the fruits of this labor.

Along with the training school, the development and equipping of national pastors to teach other nationals is hugely impactful.  Teachers from one's own nationality, language, and culture increase the efficiency of learning that translators and cultural studies just cannot achieve.  We pray the Lord continues to work on these leaders' hearts to remain teachable to His Word as they train others to do to the same.
