12/26/24 Good News for the End of 2024

With all the bad news in the world, Global Baptist Training Foundation would love to share some good news!!  

First, we are so excited to introduce Succeeded Snavely Shinga, newborn daughter of Fidele Shinga and his wife, Alice!  Succeeded was born last week and was 5 weeks early!  She had some breathing issues and jaundice, but she is now home, healthy, and gaining weight!  We praise the Lord for this sweet baby who joins sisters Success, Successful, and Successor!!  

New babies and new churches!   GBTF-trained pastors have started hundreds of churches in 2024 with hundreds more set to be started in 2025.  This church plant is in South Sudan.  Their building is crude and even their songbooks are handwritten (zoom in).  But they are spreading the gospel among refugees in South Sudan. 

South Sudan has also been the site of many GBTF training classes this year. The most recent class wrapped up in the past couple of weeks.  This class was taught by Gilbert Okecha, one of the hardest working trainers we have.  

This is just a fraction of the good news happening through GBTF around the world!  We can hardly wait to see what 2025 brings!
