To proclaim the gospel to those in Nigeria that need Christ

Being an evangelist to share and mentor fellow people in the Word of God.
My name is Godwin Ilori and I live in Barrie, Ontario. I am married with children.
I have the opportunity to go to a bible college where I obtained a certificate in Theology, but after I decided that I would rather do the work of the Lord for which he brought me into North America, I started doing a search on the internet where I can find a part-time bible college or seminary to attend, I then discovered about Christian Leaders Institute (CLI) and was extremely happy that I can be trained while still working my secular job until I can graduate and become a full-time Pastor in God’s vineyard. So far, I have taken some courses. Also, I have made a move to enroll for the Bachelor of Divinity as well which I am currently doing the mandated Collegiate Credential Class even though I wanted to take advantage of the previous degree acquired as exemption directly from the Associate of Divinity Degree.
Ministry Journey
I have assisted in planting two (2) churches in the process of running away from God’s assignment. Whenever I see someone who indicated that he was being called by God into the ministry, I would joined and assisted in prayers and setting up the church while leaving what is to be done undone. I am involved in evangelism and praying ministry.
Ordination
The most recent ordination as a Deacon Minister during the 2019 convention in Michigan and the latest Christian Ministry Award has now set the tone for the ministry God has called me into. Though it is in my plan by God's grace to complete the Bachelor of Ministry Degree.
Personal Life
I am happily married with children and grandchildren.

Jac Ferreira from the beautiful country of South Africa. He is married and has four children, one girl, and three boys. Jac enrolled in CLI in 2014 has completed 100 credit hours and now is ordained as an officiant minister.
Read Jac's Testimony in his own words:
I got to know the Lord better at the age of 13 and I also wanted to become a pastor and to work for the Lord when I finished school, and when asked to do an assignment for the job you are interested in, in my high school the next year, Reverent Brandt helped me to put all together.. Unfortunately, I did like Lot and did not respond immediately and follow a different way.
I got married but making money and the world kept me from one of my greatest passions which is family. although we kind of followed the Lord, I was still busy with worldly things more than I was supposed to. Things were falling apart, and nothing seemed to work. We lost everything and The Holy Spirit made it clear to me, that i"m not following my calling, and that I was not listening to the Lord. and that He had a different plan for me.
I spend 4 years of falling around trying to get the Institute God wanted. Today I am a satisfied student of CLI and enjoy my studies so much. My wife is in full-time ministry with me and its the most awesome feeling in the world to work for the Lord, and having the most honest and caring boss! Since we started to rely on Him, we never worked for any salary of a human being, and by the Grace of our Lord, He had been looking after us an providing as promised!
