Kenya LTC 2014. Encouraging and Equipping Church Leaders

Truth Connect's mission is to encourage and equip church leaders to be disciple-makers where they live.  To fulfill this mission a team of four teachers traveled from the USA to Langas, Eldoret, Kenya in October 2014 for a Leadership Training Conference (LTC).  The theme of this year's LTC was "The Qualities of a Church Leader".  Mr. William Thomas taught on stewardship and its implication in every area of the leader's life and work.  Dr. David Pitkins illustrated good and bad leadership qualities from the lives of Bible characters.  Mrs. Karen Schreier encouraged women to live godly lives and the importance of the Christian home.  Dr. Donald Schreier taught on the qualities necessary for good church leadershi.  Each day approximately 250 church leaders gathered to worship, pray, and learn what the Bible says about Christian leadership.  It was an exciting week of learning and making new friends.
