Church Planter Training Conference

During my time at ABC Uganda in October, I had the privilege of participating in a Church Planter Training Conference in Northern Uganda along with Pastor Hal Farnsworth and Elder Chip Milner from ABC partner Redeemer Church in Athens, GA. The conference was organized and hosted by one of our graduates, Solomon Okello, at his recently planted church, Kole Community Presbyterian Church. About 70 church leaders received 4 days of intensive biblical and theological training.
