A Shared Mission: Walking With Rwanda in Faith and Leadership
Since 2010, SPRiNG Bible Academy (SBA) and its founder, Rev. Eun Suk Cho, Ph.D., Pastor of Golden Gate Presbyterian Church (GGPC), have walked alongside the people of Rwanda in a shared mission of faith, healing, and leadership development. Through seminary teaching, pastors’ conferences, and scholarship support, nearly 200 students—from primary school to university—have been equipped to grow as Christ-centered leaders in their communities.
This sacred and enduring relationship has been prayerfully nurtured and strengthened through the partnership and recommendation of Scripture Union Rwanda, led by Rev. Dr. Hakizimana Appolinaire, affirming a shared vision for spiritual transformation and sustainable impact in the next generation.
