Pastor Bernard Sikabbenu, whose passion has always been to evangelize and disciple, realized that there was a need for training and equipping Christian pastors and church leaders in the rural areas of Zambia. This passion gave birth to the vision of a training centre in the Sinazongwe District, Southern Province of Zambia.

In 2013, Ps Bernard, Hugo and Salomie Du Toit discussed the need for and importance of training and equipping church leaders. They realized that most leaders and future pastors were too far away from formal training centres and did not have the funds to attend training. They decided to create the Luzibo Christian Training Centre to address the problem. As there were very few funds available, this was to be a faith-based, God-led project completely based on donations.

April 2014 saw the first registration of 10 students. Since that small beginning, 83 present and future church leaders have graduated from the school. 

The curriculum was compiled by Rev Dick Christensen and includes 29 subjects. The course is presented part-time over a two-year period. Graduation takes place in April when the students receive their certificates and are commissioned through prayer to serve in God’s ministry.

Your donation will enable the school to continue to train and equip Christian leaders and provide support for the teachers as they disciple the students to go into the world and spread the gospel.
