Student Sponsorship Program
Sponsor a pastor in training to attend and complete the PTIA courses. It is $300 total to sponsor a student through this program per month. Partial sponsorships are available too. This includes food, housing, and books! These students will learn sound bible doctrine and receive mentorship to help raise them up to be the leaders and pastors God has called them to be. Partnering with these students invests in the future of church planting and discipleship in Malawi.

Romans 10:14-15
14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
