For the first time, in Western Africa, a missionary training school was conducted. It took place in Ghana. The school ran over a period of six months and gave the stududents important tools and knowledge they will need to become efficient workers in the Lord’s vineyard. Students attended from several of the surrounding countries and will be sent to work for the Lord in various different areas.
Let us pray for these students as they go out into the field of labour as servants of the Lord. The enemy will want to stop the truth from going forward, so they need the courage and fortitude of the Lord.
“A vast responsibility is devolving upon men and women of prayer throughout the land to petition that God will sweep back the cloud of evil and give a few more years of grace in which to work for the Master. Let us cry to God that the angels may hold the four winds until missionaries shall be sent to all parts of the world and shall proclaim the warning against disobeying the law of Jehovah.” –Testimonies for the Church, vol. 5, p. 717
“We need missionaries everywhere. We need men and women who will give themselves without reserve to the work of God, bringing many sons and daughters to God.” –Special Testimonies for Ministers and Workers, no. 6, p. 61
May the Lord inspire other young people to enter the mission field as “ The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few. Matthew 9:37
