AFLC World Missions started a pastoral training class for the pastors of the AFLC-India in 2005. Originally the course was to consist of two weeks of classes over six years, but the pastors of India desired receive the training quicker. To accomplish this a number of training sessions have been held over the last year. Over the years thirteen teachers have traveled to India to teach classes. Some of the teachers taught more than once.
Graduation was held on January 17, 2008. Twenty pastors and two Bible women graduated from the Pastoral Training Classes. It was a day of great joy for the AFLC-I as these pastors and Bible women have received training to be effective in their congregations.
Luther Dasari, President of the AFLC-I preached the graduation message. Dr. Francis Monseth who was instrumental in the planning of the classes handed out the certificate of graduation.
Pray for these workers as they are on the front lines reaching the lost for Christ.
