From July 15–19, the regional family chairs from across Africa gathered in Nairobi, Kenya, for the annual Africa D-Group — a refreshing time of learning centered on the meeting’s theme, “Rooted and Growing,” fellowship, and forward-looking conversations about the future of our churches across the continent. Some of the lessons included:“Rooted in Christ and Growing,” taught by Moses Kalala, emphasized the importance of developing deep spiritual roots to continue growing as leaders. Sam Onuoha, administrator for English West Africa, spoke about fostering strong relationships between ministry staff and administrators, encouraging everyone to use their unique gifts while reflecting Christ’s humility and servant heart. May God continue to bless and multiply the impact of your contribution to the work of his Kingdom.” I walked away with many life and ministry lessons from men and women who love God deeply and have faithfully persevered through both the joys and challenges of ministry.”
