His Voice Newsletter 7/19
Discipleship Training Update
The Mission of His Voice Global is to raise up leaders among the vulnerable, and today's newsletter is focused on describing how our on-going discipleship training fits into that mission.
Through our Alive program, His Voice is currently conducting discipleship training classes involving over 200 participants from around East Africa. In addition, we are in the final planning stages to add eleven trainings in ten locations in Kenya and Northwest Uganda during the second half of 2022. Indigenous instructors at each location host pastors and church leaders from surrounding churches and tribes to equip them for the proclamation of the Gospel message in their churches and communities. This is done primarily through application of the six modules of our Foundation of Hope curriculum.
Watch the video above to hear His Voice CEO Dr. Vernon Burger and Director of Discipleship Training Darrell Parrish discuss the topic.

Changing the world is not an impossible dream!
Raising Up Leaders
Welcome to a new section of our feed, Raising Up Leaders.
From the vulnerable days of childhood to becoming future adult leaders in their communities, our hope is that monthly you will get to know our students individually and catch a glimpse of their world. We can’t wait for you to see how God has allowed you to be a part of relationships restored, communities renewed.
Meet Neima.
When you first meet Neima, you think that she might be quiet and reserved. As you get to know her, you realize she is a young lady who loves her family, has a lot of passion inside her, and thinks deeply about life. She isn’t worried what other people think of her, she has an inner strength that anchors her.
Like a lot of our students Neima, went to Morobo for P-1 to P-8. She lived at Nehemiah and graduated from secondary school in 2018.
After graduation, Neima returned to Yei and lived with her aunt while working at EPC. Later, she moved to Juba to obtain her passport and got a job making juice and local foods. But there didn’t seem to be a way to continue her education. One day, Asiki called and told her there was a great opportunity to go to a university and she needed to move to Arua to finish her education.
Neima enrolled in Makerere University Business School and is looking to graduate in 2023 with her certificate in Business Administration. This is a foundational course for her to build on when she starts her diploma. She is hoping to get a diploma in Physical Education and Sports Management. This suits Neima to the ‘T’.
Neima loves futbol. It has always been part of her life. Her dad was a futbol player in South Sudan. When she came to Makerere she played on the soccer team for the university. Someone from the girl’s futbol team – Queens of West Nile – saw her playing at the university games and then recruited her to play on their team. She has been their midfielder for two years. She is a talented player and always gives 100% to the game.
In getting a physical education and sports management diploma, she hopes to inspire girls in South Sudan to do sports. She wants to help train them and give them a knowledge of sports.
For Neima, giving to others is of great value and something she wants to encourage others to do.
If you don’t find Neima playing futbol, you’ll find her cooking, listening to music with her friends, or eating vanilla ice cream.
July is Neima’s birthday month. Please pray for her to grow in her relationship with the Lord and ask the Lord to open doors for her future.
Thank you for your support of His Voice Global! It is a joy to serve those God has given to us with you!
