8/26/2023 - We, at CDL—Center for Development of Leadership. have much to thank the Lord for as we pursue our mission to equip men and women for the work of ministry. Our first semester went well and we have just started the second semester early this month. God has blessed us with committed students and faithful faculty. We are thankful to contribute to the lives of church communities here in Mozambique as they stand on the first line evangelizing and discipling those who come to know the Lord.

Our challenges include:

1.       Preparation to start an hybrid approach in our teaching endeavors—in person classes and online classes. The real challenge is acquisition of equipment that will help us do well our online classes.

2.       Completion of our infrastructures—We are in the middle of construction that has gone so slow since we have avoided contract debt due to our limited financial ability.

3.       The need for more professors and support staff—Since covid-19, we have lost some support and this dictated downsizing our staff, which makes us work with limitation. We need more Professors to expand our student body. Other areas of need are in administration and academic affairs where we need personnel, but we do not have the ability to hire such human resources.

Our praises:

1.       We praise God for the opportunity to equip our students for a better service in their respective churches as some of them are already serving in the local churches.

2.       We thank the Lord for the committed staff members who give beyond and above their line of duty to get the job done.

3.       We are grateful for the strategic partnerships we have. Our hope is that not only we keep good partnerships, but our constituency may enlarge.

We are grateful before our God for the long-term partnership with Living Hope Church. Your prayers and financial support has been used by God to keep us going. Without it our task would be harder than it is already.
