Building Legacy

Africa Teacher’s Group - Good News!

We are excited to share some uplifting news from the Africa Teachers’ Group (ATG). Recently, we had the pleasure of welcoming Simon Muia, a dedicated teacher from the Nairobi Church in Kenya. His commitment to God and His Word exemplifies the spirit of love and service that drives our mission.

A Growing Legacy

From August 2018 to August 2019, a remarkable total of 15 brothers were recognised as Bible teachers within the five geographic families of churches of the ICOC Africa Missions. This period marked a significant step toward enhancing biblical education across the continent.

In the months that followed, fueled by friendship, love, and mutual respect, these brothers recognised the need for collaboration. Their vision was clear: to create a robust spiritual network that would strengthen not just individual nations but the entire continent. This passion for unity and growth led to the establishment of both the Africa Teachers Group (ATG) and the Africa Teachers Service Team (ATST) in the first quarter of 2020.

Meet Simon Muia

We are thrilled to highlight Simon Muia, our newest member of the ATG. Simon has demonstrated unwavering dedication to God's Word, not only through his extensive biblical education—holding two Master’s degrees from Mountain Theological Seminary (MBS and MCM)—but also through his dynamic approach to teaching.

As a key figure in the successful canvas-run teaching at the East Africa School of Missions and the MTA, Simon has been instrumental in nurturing the next generation of leaders. Every Saturday, he engages with 62 students, igniting their passion for learning and deepening their understanding of Scripture.

Inspiring Journey

In June 2025, Simon joined several teachers across Africa in a transformative Bible Study Tour to the Ancient Sites of the Seven Churches, as described in the book of Revelation. This experience enriched his personal faith, deepened camaraderie with fellow Bible teachers, and provided him with invaluable insights that he brings back to his Nairobi community and beyond.

God's Work Across the Continent

We are witnessing God’s incredible work within the East African Family of Churches and beyond. More individuals are stepping up to foster biblical literacy and sound teaching, helping to strengthen our communities and deepen our collective faith. The vision that sparked the creation of ATG is clearly being realised, and we are grateful for every contribution made by our dedicated teachers.

As we celebrate these milestones, we encourage everyone to continue supporting one another in this important ministry. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the future of our churches and communities across Africa.

Thank you for your prayers and support. Let us continue to uplift and empower one another as we spread the truth of God’s Word.

To God Be The Glory
