By Jeremiah Kargbo

The Principal of the God’s Agent of Transformation (G.A.T) Discipleship and Leadership Training Centre, Pastor Dr. Francis A. M. Mambu, has called on the school’s new graduates to remain steadfast in their faith, warning that we are living in times of apostasy. Addressing the graduates, Pastor Mambu, who also serves as the General Overseer of the Faith Healing Bible Church, urged them to preach the undiluted word of God, referencing 2 Timothy 4:1-5. He encouraged them to be the light of the world, exemplifying Christ-like leadership in their families, churches, and communities.

The 5th graduation ceremony of the G.A.T Bible Training Centre took place on Saturday, November 23, 2024, at the Ajayi Crowther Amphitheater, FBC Campus. A total of 600 graduates were awarded certificates after completing a year-long holistic training program in discipleship and leadership.

Speaking at the ceremony, Vice Principal II, Pastor Josephus D. Paris, challenged the graduates to use the knowledge they had acquired to support pastors in their respective churches and denominations. He urged them to practice the principles they learned during their time at the Bible school.

Guest speaker Rev. Buya Morlai Kamara, General Overseer of the First Assembly of God Church, inspired the graduates to draw strength from the scriptures, emphasizing the Bible as their ultimate guide. He also called on them to be upright and dedicated, cautioning that improper conduct by religious leaders can bring disrepute to the church.

Pastor Ayodele Agoro, the Administrative Coordinator of G.A.T, provided a brief history of the training centre’s growth since its inception in 2019. He noted that the Bible school, which began with twelve campuses in Freetown, has now been decentralized to towns across Sierra Leone, including Bo, Kenema, Makeni, Kono, Port Loko, Rutile,
