06/17/26 The Life of a Trainer

We get pictures and videos every day documenting Global Baptist Training Foundation’s multiplication.   We want to share a few recent reports!

This video is from the travels of Ntare Rogers, GBTF African IT Director, and Brian Atusasire, Assistant IT Director.  They are traveling to distribute phones to trainers and church planters and to train them to use the phones and the GBTF app that Ntare developed.   Take a minute to watch this short video! You won’t regret it!

Your giving purchases the vehicles (cars and motorcycles) used to travel, the phones that provide the first network of fellowship and accountability most of these leaders have ever had, and the expenses for our directors to travel and train and oversee!  

Gilbert Okecha trains pastors in Uganda and South Sudan. He often travels by motorcycle.   He recently traveled into the Refugee area of South Sudan and trained pastors. In South Sudan.  They have built a hut for Gilbert to stay in when he is training. 

The facilities for training depend on what is available in the area that is central for a group of pastors.   This training is so valuable to leaders who have had no theological training that they walk, hitch hike, ride buses, or whatever they need to do to access GBTF training!   

These GBTF trainers travel in difficult circumstances, train in less than desirable facilities, and endure hardship to continue multiplying the training that has now led to over 2,000 church plants and hundreds of thousands of people placing faith in Jesus and His finished work for our salvation.  We are including a few pictures of church planters and their new congregations.  We will share more about these new churches in future updates.

The trainers send thanks regularly to GBTF donors for making this amazing work of training nationals to train nationals a reality!  www.globaltrain.org
