Joseph Banagana Rwanda

Description

Profile:
Binagana Nsabimana Joseph is 58 years old. He is married to Angelique and they have 2 daughters, 25 & 22 years old. He is also caring for Abarishe, whose parents abandoned him. Joseph was saved in 1975, when a friend shared the gospel, and his parents also forced him to go to pray. He became a singer in the church, did evangelism in schools and would share his testimony whenever he could, serving God in different departments in his church. They are supported by his wife’s small business selling tomatoes, soaps, onions ect.
Ministry: “In 2008, I heard a calling in me that I have to start a church in the Bugesera district, about 50 K from the capital of Rwanda, Kigali. I became a teacher in basics school and also an evangelist at the same time. I studied education and was trained in Theology in the ‘Bible Training Centre for Pastors’. Since 2010, I have been leading a Church called “Living Hope Church” Mayange Parish. This Church, which has 78 members, started in my house with my family of 5, and we’ve continued to evangelise the neighbors who are not yet saved, preaching to them the word of God. Those who were drunkers, adulterers & those who didn’t have a church, repented, and about 65 and got saved. Now 12 have been baptized, and others are also coming.”
Mission: To preach the gospel to everywhere and expand the Kingdom of God by having members who are grown up in terms of salvation through learning the word of God and who can then go and start other churches elsewhere.
Vision: That this church will have a place to train people in Theology, and that they will not only be developed spiritually, but in soul and body too.
