New programs
IN 2024 WE HAVE STARTED 3 NEW BIBLE STUDYING CLASSES FOR NEW COMERS AND NEW IMMIGRANTS. ALL TEACHER AND LEADERSHIP TRAINING CLASSES AND TEACHING MISSIONS ACROSS CANADA UNITED STATES AND OVERSEAS MET WITH GREAT SUCCESS AND DEMANDS. FREE BIBLE AND THEOLOGICAL TRAININGS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA AND ASIA ARE VERY WELL WELCOMED BY THE POOR OR UNDERPRIVILEGED PEOPLE AND STUDENTS. IT IS A GREAT JOY FOR OUR VOLUNTEER PROFESSORS AND TEACHERS SEEING THEIR LIVES BECOME CHANNELS OF BLESSINGS TO OTHERS.
