Ambassador International University Update

The  Lord has done some amazing things for Ambassador International University (AIU), even in a year like 2020! Many needs were graciously provided as God has poured out His blessing on the university! Here are some highlights: 

  • The Salama Stove building was built. Previously, villagers would cook over wood in their houses as smoke rose through the thatched roof. Now, AIU constructs the Salama stoves for cooking and heating water while venting exhaust outside of the home. They provide a source of income for the local villagers who are learning to construct them. 

  • The Hammer Mill was constructed and is used to grind corn into a staple food for the campus and the community. 

  • Students completed their academic year, many isolated at their homes, using the distance learning curriculum. Thirty electronic notepads were purchased to help the students study remotely from their homes. The seniors were able to graduate on time and COVID-19 did not stop the university from achieving its mission and purpose in providing theological training for the students.   

  • A new solar system was constructed at the clinic which provides sun-generated power around the clock. 

  • Six housing units were constructed for medical personnel who will live on campus and work at the clinic.    

  • The Master of Theology Program was launched using a distance learning format. There are ten students working diligently in the program, including one in the USA. 

  • The Dual Enrollment program was initiated for high school students in the USA enabling them to take courses for both high school and college credit. Already 50 colleges and universities have agreed to accept some of these courses for full college credit. 

  • A daycare facility has been constructed for the staff children. It includes two large and colorful classrooms, two bathrooms, and a play yard complete with swings, slides, rock climbing wall, rope climbing, and more. The little tykes will be thrilled to begin the new year in their innovative classroom.  

The mission of AIU has faithfully continued through all the pitfalls of 2020. All praise to the Lord for providing during such an unprecedented year. The time is short, and opportunities to share the gospel to those who need to hear are vast. To anyone who has contributed financially or through prayer, thank you.
