Kishanda Graham –
“I am from the United States of America. In this country we are free to share the Gospel of Christ. However, it is very expensive to get the proper training to correctly spread the message from the Lord. Local church leaders equip their congregations with what the bible says at their church services.
“I myself was on a road with no purpose or direction, I met a lady that heard my story of a life of one trial after the next. She said to me, “I don’t know the answer but I know a man who does.” She led me in a prayer of faith right then. I accepted the Lord as my savior and was baptized, and I began going to a bible base church. After I had been cleaving to God for many years, the Lord gave me my current calling and passion.
“I asked God to show me how I could be used to help His kingdom. He told me “first you must be faithful over little. Then you can be used for much.” The Lord used me for His glory and gave me a passion to help others. Food drives, sharing, donating clothes, and speaking His word to those who had never heard. I was given the chance to talk to people who didn’t attend church services for various reasons.
“After God got their attention, they would come to me asking questions. It was then that I realized I didn’t have a lot of the answers myself, so I began to study more. I got the life application book to help me with understanding and prayed that God would give me further revelation. Then one day God led me to search free online ministry training, and that’s when He showed me CLI link.”
Kishanda Graham gets a Scholarship
“My ministry dream is to provide support for those who come to Christ and don’t have anyone to call on or keep them accountable. It is my hope to keep them from giving up when the battles and trials come. With this scholarship I will be able to obtain the wisdom I need to feed the word of God to others with the certainty that I am not changing the word of God or adding to it. This scholarship is very important to me because without it there is no way for me to afford the schooling I need to learn and correctly share the word of God.
“Please pray for wisdom and perseverance for me. Pray that every soul I encounter sees God in me that not one is lost.”
Kishanda Graham once had no path or direction in life. Then somebody came along to help her find the way to Christ. Now Kishanda Graham wants to do the same thing for others who have no direction. Her love for her fellow people and the work of God in her heart have driven her to seek further education in the word of God.
You can help Kishanda Graham realize her dream. A small donation to CLI can help people like Kishanda Graham get scholarships every day. Imagine how happy Kishanda Graham will be to receive her scholarship so that she can go out and better serve others!
Benjamin Adu Amponsah –
“Greetings in the Name of Jesus Christ to you.
“I write to seek a scholarship to Christian Leaders Institute. I am a Christian dedicated to following the call of God in my life, so I desire to be trained as a workman who needs not to be ashamed of preaching the Gospel. With your support, this dream will definitely be achieved.
“I live in Ghana. Ministry in Ghana is not very challenging since the laws of the land allow anyone to choose any religion without any interference. The ministry challenges we face in this country include the increase of untrained and uncalled leaders whose actions are driving Christianity into the ground. I hope this age of enlightenment through the Holy Spirit will raise people qualified to lead my people to God and pave way for Christ and His Church.
“I thank God and my family for leading me to Christ in my early childhood. I was born into a church community, and I gave my life to Christ at the age of twelve. I was baptized at the same age, and I have lived as a Christian since then by God’s grace.
“With God’s call on my life, I dream to be a vessel of honor to empower my audience, especially the Christian community, with the unadulterated knowledge of God. Like Paul I desire to see Christians come to full stature of the measure of God. I also desire to make God real to people. I define life as making God real to man.”
Benjamin Adu Amponsah Gets a Scholarship
“Scholarship from CLI will help me greatly to achieve these dreams. Completing the Getting Started Class has assured me that CLI is the right place for the knowledge and skills I need.
“I ask for prayer for me to be at the right place and time for my Maker.
“I thank you for your usual consideration and help.”
Benjamin Adu Amponsah lives in a country where Christians are free to practice their religion as they will, but he sees a problem. The freedom of religious practice combined with the absence of good Christian education has led to a Christian culture that does not honor God. Benjamin Adu Amponsah has been called of God to be one of a new generation of leaders who can accurately present the word of God and better lead His people.
If you want to make a difference for Christ, this is a great opportunity! A simple donation can help Benjamin Adu Amponsah and others like him impact Ghana for Christ.
Lynn Stocks –
“Hello. My name is Lynn Stocks, and I live in the United States of America in the state of Alabama. Ministry in the USA is not as hard as it is in other countries, but it still has its trials. People are more open to listen to the Word but many want to change it to fit their needs.
“I came from a christian home, attended christian schools, and attended church on a regular basis. My father had his own church in our garage for a while, so people in the neighborhood could hear the Word of God without feeling ashamed because they didn’t have the best clothes or drive the newest cars. He thought that everyone should be able to hear the Word no matter how they were dressed or arrived at church. To me knowing the Lord has just always been there.
“My ministry dream is to be able to bring the Word of God to those who feel they are unworthy of the gospel due to financial issues or living situations. Many churches look at their members’ checkbooks instead of their hearts. I want to be able to preach to the multitudes like Jesus did. I want to help all who are asking for the knowledge of the word and the peace that comes with it.”
Lynn Stocks Gets a Scholarship
“I am disabled and have no income. I depend on my son, who works to supports us and makes sure we are safe with a roof over our heads. I want to learn as much about the Bible as I can. I want to make my ministry dream a reality, but I can not pay for formal college. With a scholarship for CLI, I can make my dreams come true and spread God’s Word to those who are in a similar situation to me.
“I would ask that you pray for my strength and my health so that i am able to help others that are worse off than me.”
God calls His servants from everywhere in the world, regardless of status, wealth, or perceived ability to be effective. Lynn Stocks realizes this truth, and she wants to do something about it. Despite her own condition and needs, Lynn Stocks wants to devote her time to bringing people who are in poverty the gospel of Christ.
Lynn Stocks truly understands what it means to share the gospel of Christ “without regard to persons.” She also understands what it means to sacrifice your own personal comfort to serve God in places where others are not willing to go. You can help Lynn Stocks minister to the poor in the United States with a donation to Christian Leaders Institute. Every donation helps ensure that people like Lynn are equipped for their service and calling!
