The Nigerian minister Pastor Chris Oyakhilome invites all church employees to sign up for the Global Ministers’ Classroom 2023.

The online event is scheduled to begin on Friday, June 2nd, at 9 AM EST and will run through Saturday, June 3rd. Pastors, ministry leaders and all other people working in churches can register themselves for the event for free on the Global Ministers’ Classroom’s website.

With the Global Ministers' Classroom, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome aims to empower ministers to carry out their evangelistic responsibilities worldwide. This objective will be accomplished through engaging sessions led by the pastor himself and other esteemed lecturers.

The program includes testimonies from previous editions of the Global Ministers’ Classroom that highlight the impact of the 24-hour event, as well as a dedicated segment for questions and answers.

Attendees of the event can anticipate receiving valuable strategic guidance for the final phase of global evangelism along with a heightened emphasis on the mission and purpose of the church.

Additionally, they will have the opportunity to connect and network with millions of ministers from various parts of the world.

Soul-winning will also be on the agenda at the Global Ministers’ Classroom.

“The aim of this conference is to win souls. If anyone of us is well-equipped, we can win souls for God and win the nation. As you win souls, you are promoted in the spirit, and the spirit of God increases His grace and glory upon your life to do more. So, let us do the work of the Father; soul-winning, while it is day,” Pastor Chris Oyakhilome said ahead of last year’s program.

78 million participated in the Global Ministers’ Classroom

The Global Ministers' Classroom, hosted by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, is now in its fifth edition. Last year, a staggering 78 million ministry leaders benefitted from the program. In 2021, 40 million people attended, and this year, the number of participants is expected to become even higher.

Established in 2007, the ISM is a division of the Christ Embassy ministry. Over the years, the organization has provided workshops, training sessions and courses, equipping thousands of individuals with the necessary skills to become pastors.
