Every time World Reach Bible Institutes partners with a local overseas church, a new class of pastors is provided the Biblical, practical, and theological training to lead their church and further the Kingdom of God in their community. One of our graduates of the World Reach Bible Institute in Sisa, Peru’s class of 2019, Pastor Kerlin shares in his testimony how World Reach Bible Institutes prepared him to pastor his church with a missional focus, bringing the Gospel to his community and the nations.
"I thank God and the World Reach Mobile Bible Institute because they helped me greatly in my spiritual life both familial and ministerial. Through the MBI I learned many fundamental truths that I didn’t know and now I know and my faith is growing and I am growing in spiritual maturity. Now I can help my family and guide them in a Christ-centered life and help my brothers in the church in their needs. Thanks to the World Reach MBI, now I am more careful when I preach a text from the Bible and use it correctly. Thanks to the MBI! Many thanks to the teachers and all the family of the Mobile Bible Institute thank you.
Thanks to the courses and the good teaching that the Word Reach MBI gave us and also the example of the MBI to not have a short-term vision but a vision from above to reach the whole world and this is what has influenced my ministry and life looking towards the future, to continue motivating, preparing, and supporting men of God for the work that our God has entrusted to us like the MBI does. In the future I want to have a leadership that is firm and challenges expectations with a missionary vision, not a short-term vision, just like World Reach or like our master Jesus Christ. I will continue to prepare leaders for the work of God who will be working and serving our God and with our God’s help I hope to have a missionary church and have one or many missionaries either here or in other countries and motivate the church to take on our responsibility with its missionaries like the brothers who support the MBI and who give freely of their time and energy to be in different places and this is what I want to do in the future thank you brothers may our God continue to bless the MBI in everything they undertake." - Pastor Kerlin
