I thought it was just the other day that I participated in the modules of Master of Ministry program, but it has already been four years. God is\u00a0good and I have personally been benefitted by this program in learning to live a Christ-like life. Thiscourse has helped me to know Christ better and walk closer to Him. I have been able to Trust Him more\u00a0and the course has taught me to grow in my spiritual life. I was in a desperate need of such training, as a\u00a0leader of a team of emerging leaders in the newly started ministry of training, equipping and\u00a0empowering the leaders. It has enhanced me in the deeper knowledge of the Word of God. My knowledge in the Word of God is sharpened, and leadership skills enriched more through this training. In other words, this training has transformed my thinking, attitude and leadership skills in order to lead the group of leaders in a more effective way for the glory of God. I, as the coordinator for Nepal, had a privilege to learn together along with my colleagues and other contemporary pastors of Nepal.<\/div>\n<div>I am thankful to God for granting me this wonderful opportunity of being a part of this program and pray that many more leaders of Nepal would get this kind of opportunity in the days to come.<\/div>\n<div><i>Ministerial benefits from Master of Ministry program<\/i><\/div>\n<div>As our ministry is a newly started training ministry requiring a lot of organizational development, we were in need of such\u00a0\u00a0<b>On the Job training\u00a0<\/b>for the staff members for their personal and organizational\u00a0development. I chose the fresh theological graduates to join the team of teachers in this training\u00a0ministry and wanted to give them a Shape or build them in the way I liked which\u00a0<i>was\u00a0<\/i>a big challenge to\u00a0me. Choosing new and fresh graduates and lead and develop them in teaching and leadership skills was\u00a0not a matter of joke. It was really challenging effort to me. Nevertheless, God is good and He provided\u00a0like-minded partners like Dr. Goh Seng Fong and the team to conjure up this vision. It has been my\u00a0pleasure to see my colleagues studying and growing along with me. I am glad that six members of our\u00a0faculty team will be graduating in this forthcoming\u00a0<b>first graduation\u00a0<\/b>in August. What a pleasure for a\u00a0leader to see his colleagues, the faculty members getting opportunity to have\u00a0<b>On the Job training\u00a0<\/b>for\u00a0their\u00a0<i>personal\u00a0<\/i>growth and academic<i>exercises.<\/i><\/div>\n<div>Besides the development of our faculty members through this program, it has been my privilege to get other pastors of different church groups involved in it and develop an effective partnership in the ministry, as we all complete rather than compete in the ministry. The program has brought us more\u00a0closer to each other.<\/div>\n<div><i>My vision for the next Five years<\/i><\/div>\n<div>By the grace of God and with the co-operation of my colleagues in the ministry, I have been able to start\u00a0THREE RESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP TRAINING CENTERS in Nepal in the last six years and have trained more\u00a0than 300 grass roots leaders of Nepal from this five month residential training centers. Besides these 300\u00a0leaders, we have been able to train, many grass roots leaders and the church planters in more than 500<\/div>\n<div>sessions of Mobile based training\/seminars have been trained beginning from 2002 January. Master of\u00a0Ministry program of Asia Seminary for Ministry has trained us more to develop Christ-like character,\u00a0enhance\u00a0<i>biblical\u00a0<\/i>knowledge and develop leadership skills, and\u00a0<i>we\u00a0<\/i>are optimistic in our efforts of\u00a0Developing more National Leaders for the better leading of the churches in Nepal and plan many morechurches in the days to come.<\/div>\n<div>The Lord willing, we would like to see our tent being Extended in the coming five years and start two\u00a0more Residential Training Centers in the remaining two Development regions of Nepal too to help the Nepalese churches grow and reproduce more churches in this land. Besides these two more training centers, we plan and pray to hold about 200 training seminars on the mobile basis to train, equip and empower the Nepalese leaders so that they could Feed, Lead and Protect their flock in more effective\u00a0ways.<\/div>\n<div>Final Remarks<\/div>\n<div>Lastly, not the least, let me thank you all for your faithful labor to the success of this program and a collective gratitude to Rev. Dr. Goh Seng Fong and other faculty members and board of Directors. We\u00a0owe you for your faithful prayers and sacrificial giving to the ministry of Asia Seminary for Ministry which\u00a0has trained many leaders like me in the third world and may the Lord of Harvest bring forth manifold\u00a0blessings to you so that many more leaders would be trained in the days to come for the glory of God.\u00a0God bless you.<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First and foremost, let me thank God for this wonderful privilege of being a part of Master of Ministry program organized by Asia Seminary for Ministry, Singapore.
