Thanks to CLA - Group Shot

Thank you to CLA

Posted on December 23, 2025

CLA received the following letter two days ago, delivered via e-mail.  I have edited it for clarity and to protect the security of the student. Please take a moment to read the entire letter as it will warm your heart this Christmas season.  Your ongoing gifts through CLA make letters like this possible, but more importantly, your gifts are making a huge difference in the lives of students in Africa who are then going on to impact the region, the continent, and the world.  Thank you for supporting CLA!

NEGST Student Lunch

November 2025 at NEGST

Posted on December 4, 2025

I was on the AIU campus in mid-November for meetings. While there I had lunch with seventeen NEGST students who are able to attend NEGST because of the generosity of Americans support for them given through CLA. Listening to their stories of how they came to Christ, how some are from war torn areas, and how they feel the Lord is leading them to a life of ministry was tremendously encouraging. While it is reported that the church in the West is in decline and losing its Scriptural foundations, it is clear that this community of students in the heart of the Global South is on fire for our Lord.

NEGST Awards Degrees to 89 Students

Posted on October 27, 2025

In July 2025, NEGST celebrated the 40th anniversary of its first graduating class.  That class of five was the forerunner of this year’s class of 89!  This year’s graduates included:  22 diplomas; 35 baccalaureates, 11 MTh, 9 MDiv, and 7 PhD degrees; and another 5 post-graduate diplomas.  These 89 individuals are now further equipped to preach the Good News to a needy generation.  Many of these students are currently serving as pastors or church workers and will continue with their church, now better equipped.  Others will assume new roles as teachers and church leaders.  We thank God for His provision.
