The Bishop of the Africa Gospel church, Rev.Dr. Robert lang'at was among the main guest at Kaboson Pastors Training college. His speech was centered on the expansion of opportunities for the new graduants. He was extremely happy with the introduction of the new programs that allows the ladies to train as pastors in the institution. The two ladies who graduated, did exemplary well in their academics and co-curricular activities.

A group of students from Cheptenye Boys High School recently visited the AGC Media Department at the Central Office in Kericho.

The students were Form Three students and were given a tour of the AGC video editing and web site editing, as well as the Radio Injili studioes led by their teacher John Kirui.

One of the students, Simon Korir said, "At Cheptenye we are aspiring to attain a mean score of 8.5 in our national exams come next year.   We were impressed by the candidates of last year who tried their best to attain a mean score of 7.1.   But we aspire higher!   And with God's help, we shall attain this."

The students were impressed with the church's use of digital media to tell its story to the world.

Radio Injili not only broadcasts all over western Kenya, it is also streaming live on the internet and is able to reach the Kenyan diaspora with a "taste of home" both in terms of music, entertainment, local news, and daily inspiration.

The Media office assists with the church website and video production to help inform people of what God is doing through the ministries in Kenya and beyond. 

With a missionary force of about 55 missionaries serving in 4 countries in East Africa, the use of mass media, especially video helps people in local churches to get a "feel" for the challenges that missionaries face and assists them to know better how to pray for them.

In mid-February, a team of four media specialists from the World Gospel Mission headquarters visited and toured a number of the key AGC ministries.  They were preparing a documentory video about the work of the Africa Gospel Church and WGM in preparation for WGM's 100th Anniversary Celebration in 2010.

On team was Nancy Shuman, WGM's Media Relations Coordinator, Lindsey Hawk, still photographer, Tom Johnson, videographer, and Jonny Adkins, videographer.

They visited the Nairobi ministries, Nakuru Baby Center and churches, Kericho ministries including KHBC and the Central Office, Tenwek Hospital, local children's homes and orphanages, Kabason Pastors School, and the Olderkesi Development Project and the Olderkesi Ministry Training Institution.  In addition, they visited and interview people from the areas that were hard hit in last year's post-election violence to document the assistance given to them by the AGC Crisis Relief programme.
