 Mr Painito Nixon Ambuka is a final year extension student in the Eldoret Cohort, pursuing a master’s in biblical studies. He is actively involved in missionary work in Burundi.
Ambuka, how can you study in Eldoret in Kenya, and your ministry is all the way in Burundi?
The reason I chose the Eldoret cohort is because my family is situated in Bungoma, which is about a two hour drive away, making it easier for me to keep in touch with them. I joined the International Christian Ministry in 2002, working in Tanzania in the refugee camps for the Burundi people. In 2007, I moved to Burundi, with the mission of training pastors and church leaders in Burundi. For now, I keep up with the work by travelling back and Read more »

 College Park Church (CPC) began in 1985 when a group of people wanted to develop a Bible-preaching and teaching church amidst the rapidly growing north side of Indianapolis in the United States. Ten families began meeting in a hotel, initiating Bible studies, and the church was born. The small gathering began to grow significantly and moved to a nearby warehouse for a few years, relocating to the current church property in 1992.
A rapidly growing ministry with a global reach
College Park Church is now blessed with several building expansions, allowing them to house more than 2,200 attendees in three Sunday morning services. The church has reached out into several additional assemblies and a sister church. The ministry spreads also through their radio ministry called “Verse by Verse.” CPC is committed to spreading the gospel both in local outreach and globally, focusing on “unreached people” needing Read more »

 Kabucungu Hand-jinga, you graduated in 2005 with a master’s in Bible translation from NEGST. What have you been doing since then?
I’ve been the head of the Bible translation department at Shalom University in Bunia since July 2008. The department currently has 12 students, and there are about 500 in the university as a whole. Before that, I was the project leader of the Tembo Bible translation and literacy project, based in Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
Those are big tasks. Did you feel that your courses at NEGST equipped you adequately for your current position?
All that I do now as head of the Bible translation department is based on what I learned and saw put into practice at NEGST. NEGST provided the foundation for Read more »
