✨ Celebrating 5 Years of Transformation | ICT Final Graduation ✨

On Saturday, 16th August 2025, we held the final graduation of the Institute for Community Transformation (ICT) on Zoom. It was a joyful yet emotional moment as we celebrated God’s amazing faithfulness and the impact of ICT over the past five years.

In this time, ICT learners and faculty have launched missions organisations, prayer networks, schools, churches, businesses, Discovery Bible Studies, and seen thousands come to Christ. Truly, “God has done so much!”

As our Co-Director, Todd Pokrifka, shared, “Unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds” (John 12:24). Though ICT as a programme has now closed, its vision continues—sprouting new shoots in places like Uganda, Nigeria, Kenya, and beyond.

We give all glory to our perfectly faithful and ever-loving God. The story of ICT is not ending—it is multiplying. 🌱
