In early May, Stephen traveled with T-Net President Dr. Jay Klopfenstein, his son Jared (Teleo University), and a friend to Uganda and Ethiopia to attend two graduation ceremonies. It was a time of celebration as over 250 students completed the four-year T-Net training program, a rigorous process that prepares leaders to disciple others and plant churches.
While in Ethiopia, Stephen met with 25 pastors to encourage and update them on the ministry. Some of these men came from highly unreached, hostile areas, traveling nearly 200 miles to be there. He observed first-hand the testimonies of God’s faithfulness and the impact of the Gospel in communities across the region.
