“A Person is a Gift”

What is the best gift you ever received? I remember one Christmas I was so excited because my Nana and Granddaddy were coming to visit. That Christmas I did not care anything about material gifts, I was just so excited for the gift of being able to see my grandparents whom I loved very much. Is there someone in your life who feels like a gift - someone you cherish more than material things?

In Acts 5:32, the apostle Peter speaks about the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit as the greatest gifts to humanity that God the Father ever gave. Peter writes, “And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.” Do you cherish the person of the Lord Jesus and the personal presence of the Holy Spirit greater than any earthly possession, relationship, or accomplishment? The Scriptures want you to. This Thanksgiving and Christmas, as you give and receive gifts, worship the Father for the greatest gifts you can receive, Christ and the Holy Spirit. Share of those gifts with others, especially those who do not know God.

Did you know that you as a person can become a gift to a pastor in Africa as you give toward helping them be trained for ministry and pray for that pastor? Your gift to TCWM helps that happen for a new generation of pastors in Africa. Would you pass on the blessings to these pastors who are desperate to go to seminary to study the Word of God but are unable on their own?

The official launch of our Satellite Accredited Program in Kenya starts Nov.24th!

Why Give to TCWM?

The Great Commission given by the Lord Jesus to His disciples is this: go to the nations with the powerful Gospel, make disciples, and teach them to obey all I have commanded. That is the priority, the main thing given by our King. We are placed on this earth to seek first His Kingdom and to bring Him glory.

That is exactly what TCWM is doing. Christ’s priority is our priority. It is a great challenge and requires great sacrifice.American churches give about 2.58% of their income to world missions. Yes, many churches are very generous, but most are largely focused on their own area of ministry.

In contrast, with our eyes on Christ’s Great Commission, over the years, the vision and direction of TCWM has expanded.We began with a focus on training pastors in Uganda, then our focus expanded to East Africa, and subsequently to Central Africa. Our current goal is to plant at least one solid, reformed church in every country in Africa. To support this effort, we will soon open our tenth teaching site in Africa. 2025 has been a year of miraculous growth.

I am in a unique place. I have watched this ministry grow. I know the brothers and sisters on the Board of Directors of TCWM; I know our strong faculty. I have seen hundreds of pastors trained, many churches planted, and many new disciples who responded to the Gospel. I can give to TCWM with confidence and great joy. As you consider your giving, will you join me and generously support this great effort because this is what Christ has commanded us to do? Christ has commanded this mission and made it a priority for all of His disciples. We know that by focusing on His priorities we will have His blessing. A great harvest of souls is coming.

We don’t play around with world missions. We receive your gifts with great excitement and wisely invest in eternity as those who will give an account. In faith, we attempt great things for God and expect great things from God. Our greatest need right now is partnership to fund the remaining classes of the year. Would you consider making a gift this Giving Tuesday to help fund these remaining classes and equip our students to complete their training this year?

In Christ Alone,

Pete Anderson, Founder of TCWM
