Victoria shares her thoughts about her experience in DSM: Jinja, Uganda...

Africa is just a continent. I say that because I had originally started this whole mess of words with, “Africa changed my life.” But it didn’t. Really, what changed me was not 36 hours of travel to another continent. The change that happened was because of the life I got to experience with people–looking out a window to see poverty & walking through it, having conversations that let me in to just a little bit of the incredible life stories of some truly hopeful people, & yes, in some ways the location was a part of change–but seeing others live life a different way–it confronted me with that fact that their living differently would change the way I would continue to live once I was back in my time zone. I’ve realized many things, but I think most importantly I realized how I lived in the mundane & by the end of this trip, I realized that my thoughts & my heart had made a radical change. The scope of my vision was broken wide open & my life encountered the overwhelming love of Christ in the last place I expected it to–my expectations were shattered in the most different & amazing experience of my life thus far.
That’s it, in one paragraph, about how I now feel now. I’ve been back for over a month & I am just beginning to completely understand what transpired. It has taken lots of quietness to realize that I have been totally wrecked by going to Uganda, but in the best way possible. So I’ve kinda already put the ending at the beginning, so we will keep working backwards. CLICK HERE TO READ MORE


What Our Local Students are Saying About DSM…

DC… My time invested in the DSM classes, with the instructors and classmates, and self-study homework provided me the richest spiritual growth in my entire spiritual walk and relationship with God.  It has been one of my life’s best decisions and investments.
 
JH… I was one of the first students in DSM.  I had just gotten out of Teen Challenge and recently married. DSM helped me to see the fullness of God and it helped me to hear Gods voice better. The outreach to India impacted my wife and I so much.  I often look back to that trip and can really see how that put a burden for missions in my heart. Definitely a defining moment in my life. Currently our family is in a missions training school, learning mission strategies.  It has been an amazing journey and I know there is much more ahead, but I can honestly say that DSM and Greg and Debby have played a vital part in my spiritual walk. Anyone that is thinking about going into full time or part time ministry would benefit greatly from DSM.  

LD… I enrolled into DSM to go beyond what I experienced on Sunday morning. DSM took me to the next level of knowing Him. I have been made new!

TD… DSM was created with me in mind – a seeker of the “More” I knew was to be found in knowing God on a deeper level. That in the discovering, I could experience Him in ways I never dreamed possible and also learn more about who He made me to be.  DSM helped unlock those hidden places within me by exploring relevant subjects. The quality of the teaching matter and the equipping tools shared, especially the emphasis on intimacy with our Father in prayer, were life changers for me! I realized that it’s never too late to discover your destiny; and even more exciting to walk in it! The entire DSM experience propelled me toward greater freedom in Christ and I can look forward with expectation to More!
 
MM… DSM provided me with the opportunity to experience the depth of who God is as our father, to see the many gifts he has given me in the area of prayer, exhortation and especially in teaching. It gave me an opportunity to discover a deeper walk with Jesus. I learning the character of Christ and the examples He set for me to follow in how I interact with the people around me. It gave me a stronger understanding of who the Holy Spirit is, and His place in the Trinity. I was able to see and hear all the different ways Gods speaks to us on a daily basis… I was able to experience so many knowledgeable instructors in the different perspectives they gave from their experiences as pastors, teachers and missionaries that only DSM would have been able to provide.

KM… While attending DSM, I gained boldness to walk out my giftings with more confidence.  I enjoyed learning and growing with my new spiritual family (DSM staff and fellow students). Defining my mission statement seem to bring clarity and focus to my daily choices that I didn't have previously.  Being mentored at DSM myself, taught me how to mentor others. Whether you are a new believer or seasoned believer there is something to benefit you by investing your time with DSM.

LO… More than any other season of my life, I felt loved and encouraged in the Lord through DSM. The foundations of faith were taught, learned, and lived out, to help me discover and discern my determined purpose. I hold such fond memories of the teachers, students and activities of the school and have deep gratitude for the school's ministry and leadership.

EN, Rwanda… We thank you so much for the teachings you gave us. All the things were very well, and good.  Your vision is good and very needed. Very important for the people of God.  We thank you a lot and those teachings are needed for the pastors of Rwanda...we are all the humble servants of the high God and together we lift up the name of Jesus.

TN, Kenya… The results of your labor are not in vain... the following week I had the outreach mission and revivals in one of our branch churches. Thank God for my days in the Destiny school of ministry… it was just a preparation for what was going to happen… 20 souls got saved and not just in an ordinary way, but, addicted drunkards, after every alter call came forward crying with great conviction men and women. That young church also experienced a tremendous revival and great spiritual breakthrough. My daughter also, whom we prayed for in the class, was the one leading in praise and worship in all the services from the 1st day till the end.  She's well and sound… may all the glory be to our God!  Thanks to God for having met you… you have been a great blessing in my life.
 
DM, Uganda… Thank you so much for everything you did for us in Nairobi. We give glory to God for how he used you to impact our lives. Back here in Uganda, ministry is moving on well and personally am implementing some of the things i was taught… Am so proud of Destiny school of ministry. I like the way you reached out to us individually and made sure we all benefit from the school. 
 

JM, Kenya… I am thanking God for your team that came to Kenya and may he bless you all.  Since the school, I am more prayerful and I am applying the teachings of leadership and mentoring into practice and also learning keenly to hear from God.  For sure my life has changed and I will forever be grateful to all of you. 
 

NM, Kenya… This was awesome. Let glory be unto God.
 
DN, Kenya… Thanks so much, You are special, God’s people. You are so different from other American people…God wants people like you… You were able to mix with Africans, even eating together with Africans, May GOD bless you.

MS, Kenya… I thank Him, too, for the great work you allowed Him use you to do and surely your blessing (mukisa) awaits. I admit that you left us happy and at the same time sad. But all glory be unto the Lord because we are together in spirit and He keeps reminding us of the great experience we had, especially the way you blessed me every time we met. I do pray that the Lord re-fills you from wherever you were exhausted and make the cup of your anointing overflow again. I Love you so much and God bless!!!
