September 2018—The #1 Church that is closest to meeting the requirements is our Mother Church in Rwanda—the Nyamirambo Church. We have a commitment from the Rwanda authorities that if the paving of the parking is completed the church will be re-opened. What you see stacked above are the pavers drying. Will you help us re-open this church? (Click to read more)
It is reported that approximately 7,000 Houses of Worship have been closed by the government of Rwanda for having failed to comply with new stringent regulations. Of the 16 churches we planted only two were allowed to function as normal. The two churches that remain were allowed to stay open as they had their own church facilities. It is as if we are starting over again in Rwanda! (Click to read more)
Ron rejoices, "The Fellowship Network in declared Rina and me as their 2018—Missionaries of the Year! I emphasized that we are only co-labourers with Christ. He is the one who is building His Church.

The Rwanda Government came with very stringent criteria for existing local churches. Fortunately, the officials who inspected our campus gave us time to upgrade the facilities.... We still need $2,000 to complete the work. ...Churches where our graduates are pastoring need help to reopen, too. (Click to read more)

Evangelism Training Has Big Pay-off!
July 2017—Ron Kinnear Reports: Over, above and beyond…........ and now reaching for the stars! The Lord has blessed our Something Extra Soul-winning Programme beyond expectation! It is a clear indication to us that soul-winning lies very close to the heart of God. Initially, we trusted the Lord to win 20,000 souls (first-time decisions for Christ) within a period of three years (2008-2010). Then the Lord led us to continue and we lifted our sights to trust Him to grow to 50,000 within the next subsequent three years (2011-2013). (Click to read more)

Celebrating Souls Saved!
2017—This year we are returning to the places we have trained pastors in Evangelism Clinics for Celebrations. We will have banquets, then receive each pastor's' report of how many he or she has won to the Lord. And of course during this time there is much celebrating with the angels over each person won to Jesus! The blackboard lists the number of people contacted, those already saved, and those people who are first-time Christians who are now being church-nurtured!
