CGA Products

Every school holiday we have a reunion where all of our secondary students sponsored through CGA return to Mbita for a week of spiritual renewal, encouragement, advise, etc.  It is a time to reconnect with their old friends and to re-charge their batteries before returning back to school (most of them are in boarding schools). 

In the past, CGA missionaries and teachers have facilitated the conference sometimes, and other times visiting University students and other teams have directed the program.  A few months ago the CGA students who have finished secondary school stepped up to say that we didn't need to bring any special visitors because they were able to facilitate.  It was a good opportunity for them to give back to CGA after all they have been given.  It was also a good opportunity for them to pass on much of what they have learned through the years and to differentiate themselves as leaders.  Nobody knows and understands our children better than themselves. 

This past week they did an excellent job of leading them through times of praise and worship.  They shared with them practical advice on dealing with temptations, how to handle relationships, succeeding academically and many other areas.  The most beneficial time were the small group Bible Studies.  Seeing these former students lead their groups in discussion as they dig into God's word was a  great pleasure for all of us who have impacted their lives.
