Updates on Coronavirus from Africa
“‘Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” - Deuteronomy 31: 6 (NKJV)
Our CSO, Patrice Tsague, has just returned to the states from an abbreviated trip to visit and celebrate our classes, entrepreneurs, and E-Community Centers in Africa. Due to growing global concerns of the Coronavirus, the world is shifting its focus from the normal hurried pace of life quickly to adapt to more digital solutions for connecting online daily. The Nehemiah Project is ahead of the curve with our E-Community 2.0. As the days continue to pass by during growing quarantines, we continue to adjust our definition of normalcy.
Despite the rapid spread of the Coronavirus, during his trip to Africa (including Kenya, Congo, and Cameroon). Patrice was able to celebrate the following accomplishments:
- Conducted seminars and ministry to over 2000 individuals
- Trained 105 entrepreneurs in Biblical Entrepreneurship
- Graduated 60 entrepreneurs with 45 business plans created and over 200 potential jobs to be created
- Conducted training sessions for our current BE Certified Trainers in Kinshasa Congo
- Provided a $15K debt funding to a school transportation company in Kenya
- Signed agreements for the opening of one Nehemiah Entrepreneurship Community Center in Lubumbashi Congo and officially opened the Nehemiah Entrepreneurship Community Center in Nairobi Kenya
- Identified land for the Nehemiah Entrepreneurship Community Center in Cameroon
Although this trip ended prematurely, it was one of our most successful trips to Africa and it is guaranteed to impact both the local community through the creation of new streams of revenue and new job opportunities. Patrice will return to conduct more trainings in both June and November in Lubumbashi.
