The Great Dilemma
|
|
| The people of Kenya, East Africa are in great need of leadership training. The consequence of the mass evangelism, thru open air Crusades, gospel films, etc. has been an explosion of Christianity throughout Africa, especially in East Africa. Before Jesus left this world He asked the Father to “keep those that He had been given”. Many Pastors are trying to keep those, who have come to Christ, without the knowledge to proclaim the Word effectively. This has caused a great dilemma in Christianity in Kenya. Most Pastors have received very little Bible Training that is needed to uphold the mass evangelism that is taking place. Conversions require conservation. The more rural & primitive areas are affected the most. Well-equipped Nationals can do the work of harvesting and conservation---usually better than Westerners. |

The Vision
|
|
| Enlightening The Word Ministries Intl., (EWMI) was formed for the purpose of accepting the call for filling the need that mass evangelism caused. David & Cynthia Rackliff associated with the International Bible School arm of Victory Christian Center (IVBI) in Tulsa Okla., went to Kenya, East Africa and lived for several years. They started 2 Bible Schools and helped start several others. They have taken personal responsibility of developing one IVBI in a rural area of Kenya, in a District called Tharaka. Tharaka is an area of approx. 300,000 people. For 4 years the School has moved once and is currently holding classes in a restrictive environment. There is no room for expansion for leadership multiplication. We are challenged to stretch our faith to a new dimension and build to eliminate hindrances for the future. |
