Training Updates in the Region Jan-Mar 2007
Two special classes met in the Philippines
at the end of year, 2006. The first nine
weeks (phase 1 & 2) of the Leadership
Training Institute (LTI) had 18 graduates,
with seven finishing phase 3. They were
CEF staff serving in the field who came for
the last three weeks, and graduated with
their diploma. The Lord be praised that more
workers are being trained to reach the
millions of Filipino children.
Likewise, there was an Institute in Korea
which finished last November. While there,
I had the privilege and joy to go to Jeju
Island to be with the CEF workers there,
noting the more 100 GNCs in the Island.
These GNC teachers are being equipped
through the teacher training class which
meets every Monday.
Praise God, too, for an Institute in
Myanmar which finished in December.
There were 13 graduates. In all, we had 37
new graduates from the 12-week Institutes
held late last year.
Meanwhile, a Preschool course was held in
Singapore. We had the privilege to share the
gospel in two Preschools with 97 children,
six of whom received the Lord Jesus.
Beginning of this year found the staff of
Indonesia conducting an Instructor Of
Teachers (IOT) 1 Course. There were nine
students. Six staff were Leadership Training
Instructor Candidates. Venue was the Oasis
Center, the CEF center where Rev Kang
from Korea is the Director. It is a nice,
quiet, peaceful place surrounded by rice
fields.
From there I went to Cambodia where we
held the preschool course for 18 of the 20
CEF staff. What joy to go out and teach the
children. Ten little ones received Jesus as
their Savior. After this course, ten of the
staff were students again, this time for an
IOT 2. Praise the Lord that these young
people on staff are learning to teach adults
and reach the children.
With these training courses in the region, a
great multiplication is going on. More and
more children have the opportunity to hear
about Jesus and coming to know Him as their
personal Savior and Lord!
