Teaching begins

AIM’s teaching on FRUITFULNESS was very well received. We had, perhaps, our youngest ever attendee--this lovely pastor (“Mama Mchungaji” or Pastor Mama) brought her little baby along and did not miss a single session of the training. She followed the notes and scriptures with rapt attention and deep respect.

As we led church leaders through Jesus teaching regarding principles of the Vine and Branches and the Parable of the Sower, they could see how God is at work in their lives and churches. They recognized how our heavenly Vinedresser is faithfully pruning and shaping us so that we will bear abundant fruit. . .fruit that will remain. Times of deep prayer, reflection and repentance were powerfully rich as they aligned their hearts with the will of the Father so that with one heart we can see His Kingdom come and His will done on the earth as it is in heaven.
