04/21/26 Good Words from GBTF Trainers
We are thrilled to share reports from two of our Global Baptist Training Foundation trainers. These national trainers have completed all of our curriculum and have graduated. In addition, they have completed additional trainer training and continue to be refreshed in class content. We love this picture of Brasswell Nkhonjera because it shows how faithfully he is teaching the things he has learned through GBTF theological training. Our 212 trainers all agree to use only GBTF-produced materials in all classes they teach! Global Baptist Training Foundation exists to theologically train national leaders to train other nationals.
Below are two first-person accounts from GBTF trainers:
“A new class has began in Mbeya, Tanzania. We have started with 26 students. I taught Hermeneutics [Interpretation of Scripture]. The training took place from 13-17 April 2026 at Uhai Baptist Church. Regional leaders, physicians, and primary school teachers attended the class. The teacher was Brasswell Nkhonjera. All went well. I thank God the Almighty for giving me strength to travel to Tanzania despite having another class last week in Lilongwe. Keep praying for Southern Africa. We would like to reach all countries in Southern Africa.”

“We thank GBTF in ZAMBIA. Churches are growing and leaders are preaching biblical things and people are receiving Jesus Christ to be their Savior. Thanks so much. Let us pray for GBTF leaders across the world
”
”Pastor Timothy Ndhlovu, GBTF Trainer and National Coordinator for Zambia
We thank God for the amazingly dedicated and talented members of the GBTF team in Africa! Next week we will share the results from the first quarter of 2026. We are excited for all of our GBTF donors and partners to see the multiplication that is occurring by training nationals to train nationals! www.globaltrain.org
