Partner with the work

Pray, give or serve — so that no gospel worker misses training because of cost.

Get involved

Would you like to partner and pray with us?

The door is open. GTI prayerfully seeks funding from gospel-minded individuals, churches, institutions and organisations, both locally and internationally — so that no one misses training because of cost.

Pray

Pray for wisdom, provision and lasting fruit as the Holy Spirit works in the lives of those we serve.

Give

Cover the cost of workshops and bursaries so that cost never keeps a gospel worker from training.

Serve

Share your skills, teach, translate, or link GTI to churches and colleges that share the vision.

Where your giving goes

Every gift equips a faithful teacher

Pastors, clergy and lay people — especially in rural areas — often serve without salary or stipend. GTI removes cost as a barrier and keeps investing in those who have completed training.

  • Venue, materials and meals for five-day workshops
  • Translation into participants’ own languages
  • Bursaries for six-month Classroom Ministry Training
  • Books, a lending library and refresher workshops for alumni

“The church in South Sudan is like a big tree with many branches and leaves but has no roots.”
Dr Justin Badi AramaPrimate, Episcopal Church of South Sudan
“South Sudan is overflowing with churches and pastors, yet most have never had the opportunity for in-depth Bible training and skills in Bible handling.”
Anglican AID Development2025
“Instead of bringing out what the Holy Spirit has put into the passage, they are putting things into the passage which they have come up with. That is imposition, not exposition.”
