Brief Summary:
As a member of a five-member team that went to Akure, JP Welch, had the opportunity to incorporate Crown’s teaching into a conference that was led by the efforts of Servant Leadership Ministries. They desire to bring leadership training into Nigeria, which is one of many African nations very much in need of strong leadership. 

In a combined effort, they were able to teach pastors and church leaders from Ghana, Nigeria, and Togo. Altogether 150 leaders were taught God’s financial principles from Crown’s Pastor’s Resource. After learning the principles taught at the training, 58 leaders signed the Pastors Covenant confirming that they would teach those same principles to at least 100 people by September 2015.

Results:
150 leaders trained in foundational biblical principles, with 58 pastors committing to teach 100 people by 2015.
