God gives the growth. As East African churches experience rapid growth, the LCMS comes alongside to help prepare new pastors and church workers for service.
“Across Africa, God is providing Lutheran church bodies with growth, which has created a blessed challenge: They are having trouble providing enough well-trained pastors to shepherd new believers. These church bodies are increasingly turning to The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) to help train their pastors and evangelists due to the Synod’s biblical doctrine and reputation for solid theological education.” – Lutherans Engage, March 20, 2022
