Do you have a deep desire to be a part of the end-time revival, but are called to reach out to other parts of the globe?
Are you on fire for evangelism and want to win souls on every mountain of influence?

We are of the like mind and through teaching, learning, and growing together, we want to help you realize and maximize your potential.
The Master Class in African and African American Church and Revival Leadership was birthed from a deep desire to be a part of the end-time revival message. More specifically, the purpose of the experience is not just to bring the light of the African revival movement to America, but to connect African Americans of the diaspora back to foundational structures to reconcile, reconnect with their faith, family and empowerment.

Missions and Evangelism go hand in hand as the way to promulgate the message of The Gospel throughout the world. In the Old and New Testaments, God calls the believer to take an active role in spreading the message of the gospel to every nation. Though the gospel of Christ is at the center of evangelism, the goal of true evangelism is to make strong and mature disciples through the ministry of the Word.
So then, The Masterclass in Evangelism, Foreign Missions and Church Leadership is a 4-part course that seeks to equip laypersons, leaders, and Pastors with unique training and opportunities to bring the End-Time Revival Light of Africa to the World.

The course will be offered online, and meets monthly on Google Meets.
