My Experience in World Witness Training Centre
I came to know about WWTC through a friend who invited us to come and celebrate her graduation ceremony, this was the 9th Graduation.
On that day of graduation I came and as were going to her home to celebrate, she made the statement that ‘next year Lydia, you will join and sit where I sat’. She did not know she was prophesying. I was shocked because I learnt that actually my 2014 seat belonged to her in 2013.
I began by attending a seminar whereby a learnt a lot of things and desired to join the Centre the following year.
At joining, we began with an interview; I was so nervous that words escaped. The first Lessons on Spiritual Development and Motivation Gifts brought a big change in my life, it gave me another perspective that a new born believer is just like a baby who should be given time to grow. I discovered my gift and I endeavor to exercise it. I am a teacher (Primary Gift) and Server (Secondary Gift). I was doing this in my Church and many more but now I will narrow down to my gifting to let others also discover theirs.
I was timid before I joined WWTC but with the morning devotions of Confession and Prayer, I am very bold and can stand before many people. In my private life I have learnt to confess who I am in Christ which I received through morning confession.
I did not know anything about Computers, I had never handled any. I came in as an analogue material, I am leaving as a digital material, Praise God.
To my instructors, don’t grow weary in well doing, in Gods due time you will receive a reward. You have become a channel through which God wants to use to reach the World by training men and women to go out and impact their World.
Due to the distance I was covering every day, my prayer is to see the Complex that is displayed in the Staff Room on land. God will provide and we will have boarding facilities especially for people from far.
May God Himself, who placed this big vision in the hands of the Founders follow it to the very end. God bless WWTC and enlarge their territories. As I graduate I give God all the Praise and Glory. Who knew that this person writing would graduate?!? Glory to God.

I give Glory to God for all He has accomplished through us this year. It was a year that we wholly depended on God for every step, every lesson and every activity. This was the first year that we took care of classes and all WWTC Activities without the Founders Dr. Clifton and Dr. Leta McDowell, who are in USA.
We are grateful that the Founders were with us through it all, praying for us and supporting us in every possible way, hats down for them everyone! We have been in touch with them until the Class has finally graduated.
Below please find testimonies from our 2014 Class. We are so grateful to the Board of Trustees of McDowell Ministries, Partners, WWTC Staff, Sponsors who gave for the 2014 Students, Pastors and our Friends, we wouldn’t have done it without you.
Keep checking this space for more testimonies.
You are blessed.
Rev. Judith Otanga

My Experience at WWTC

I came to know about this institution through a member of Staff who is a close friend. I then made a decision to join this institution. In my mind I had a picture of a Bible College strictly adhering to the teachings of head knowledge, theology. I thought that this College was only training men and women to serve on the pulpit.
After joining this esteemed institution, I discovered a different setup from what I was carrying in my mental realm. I discovered that this College was equipped to train ordinary men and women to serve the Church of the 21st Century.
Personally, I enjoyed the whole Spiritual Curriculum at WWTC. The Bible Study Course from the Biblical Interpretation through Leadership are fully packed and Holy Spirit anointed to transform a person, Church or Organization.
When I got saved, I thought salvation was some kind of prison but at WWTC I learnt Salvation is the full package of abundant life that God designed for all who would accept the Lord Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
I have learnt to distinguish between Ministry Gifts, Motivation Gifts and Manifestation Gifts, moreso I have also discovered my Motivation Gift, Hospitality. My life has been transformed, many people who looked down at me now call me ‘Pastor’ though am not one.
When the Founders left, I thought I would drop out because I had not learnt fully from the WWTC Staff, I was surprised at wanting to come everyday including Mondays (Service Days) the Staff are well equipped thus we are ready to graduate.
God bless the Founders Brother Clifton and Sister Leta, my Sponsors my Dad, my Pastor and Bishop Wawire and also God bless the WWTC Staff, they poured out on us and we received with thanks giving. We are ready to transform our World. We will always truly Seek, Serve and after we have done all Stand in the service of our Lord Jesus Christ.
To all Leaders out there don’t criticize and compete but complement and complete everyone in your leadership. If you want to learn excellence please go to WWTC.
Shalom

My Experience in WWTC
It was on 7th of January 2014 that I entered in this wonderful Institution, WWTC, I was expecting a transformation. I was determined to take both the Morning and the Afternoon Class. I prayed and believed God for it all. I was also prayed for and received the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
In Six Months, I have learnt more than what I expected. Most of all Motivation Gifts, I have discovered my gift and am willing to stir it up. The subject that amazed me was Evangelism, earlier I had feared going out to tell people about Christ because I thought people received or rejected salvation depending on the person telling them but I learnt that I was just a vessel and the Holy Spirit is the one that convicts. I gained confidence to tell people about Christ.
I have learnt so much from all the subjects and I give Glory to God. I appreciate the Founders for allowing me to come and learn both the Biblical Studies and Computer Studies, I heard a voice from the within that told me that God would provide, so I stepped in by Faith and the Founders helped me go through when I could not get money to pay for the afternoon class. I am so grateful that even through it all I emerged the best Computer Student. Thank you God, Founders and Staff.

My Experience in WWTC
I want to thank God for making me to be in such an Institution for Spiritual growth which consists of Biblical Leadership and Spiritual Development.
I have a generation to transform with what the WWTC Staff has imparted in my life. I thank the Founders of WWTC Dr. Clifton and Dr. Leta McDowell for sponsoring us in the Half Day Class.
I knew WWTC through Sis. Judith who also helped me to get the application packet, I remember when I was interviewed, that is when I realized that actually I had not received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Before the Holy Spirit Class, the Staff prayed for those who had not been filled and a refilling for those who had been filled. It was the best experience of my life and I have never stopped praying in tongues.
I am grateful to the WWTC Staff for taking care of all our lessons in the absence of Founders. I am bold because of the daily confession that we made every morning before prayer.
I have learnt Excellence because WWTC is excellent from the gate to the class room. WWTC is Excellent in everything. I also was amazed at the coordination of the Staff, they are Excellent. We would see a group in the morning which would exchange with another group after eleven in the morning. I learnt that the Staff treats each other with lots of love and respect, they are my role models.
I have learnt and will teach others, I pray that Pastors will send their leaders to WWTC, their Churches will never remain the same.

My Experience at WWTC
I start by saying, I have learnt so much from WWTC. My life is being transformed. Not only my individual life but also my life in my house, my husband says he has seen a great change and that I am going far as far as ministry is concerned.
I am grateful to God for giving me the opportunity to go to WWTC. I then thank the Founders, Bro. Clifton and Sis. Leta for asking McDowell Ministries to Sponsor us, it made it easier for me to travel to School without the concern of thinking about fees. Thank you so much
I was afraid to stand before many people before but I am leaving the Training Centre a very bold Lady. Glory to God, I am grateful to the Instructors for teaching us so well. I now know my gift and I promise to exercise my gift.
Morning Prayer and Confession was what I enjoyed the most, it kept us going the whole day. I will continue to confess. I am leaving WWTC a better Leader, I have learnt how to lead with integrity. God bless WWTC.

My Experience at WWTC
It was last year December when I heard about WWTC through Rev. Ben and Oliver that had visited our Church in Turkana.
I received my application packed and read through it carefully. I had internal battle about choosing to go to WWTC or to a different College.
Towards the end of the year, I made up my mind to join WWTC, though I did not know where it was located, the Pastor’s Wife whom we were travelling with knew the place.
We arrived at WWTC and received very warm welcome from the Founders, Bro. Clifton and Sister Leta together with the WWTC Staff. It was rather very cold for us, but we made it through Christ who gives us the strength and who is the Master over Climate.
I am so grateful to God for His Grace that has carried us throughout, without which I could not have made it. The Lord has prepared me through the Staff for me to reach people of Turkana with the Gospel.
WWTC has imparted much in my life and I can see there is a transformation and success in my life. I had never known the power of confessing the Word, I will continue with my confession of Faith everyday.
I thank the Founders of WWTC, the Staff and my Parents for helping me go through the training. I have learnt so many things, Growing up Spiritually, Faith, Submission and Authority, Prayer according to the Scriptures, Leadership and many others. Above all I have discovered my Motivation Gift.
God bless the Founders, Instructors and Support Staff of WWTC God has used them to help me go through the training.
I am grateful for the Computer knowledge that I have gained I am ready to go back and transform my community and the World. May WWTC prosper and remain for many years.

THE ANNUAL WORD OF FAITH LADIES CONFERENCE – BY REV. JUDITH

This was the great Women’s Conference 2013. Dr. Leta McDowell was one of the Teachers at the Conference. She taught on how God created Man, Male and Female as equal partners. She gave a demonstration of a pair of shoes, something that had never appeared in my wildest dreams. That the pair are one and none can function either way than left on the left and right on the right and also none can do without the other. This I thought was a great revelation until the following day when she taught on us, human nature being a song. An important note on God’s Symphony! Wow! This was greater than all our thoughts, I got so many positive comments from my friends about the revelation. She read the book of Zephaniah 3:17, Genesis 1:26-27 and others. Dr. Leta McDowell is a great Teacher of the Word, while Dr. Clifton McDowell is a great Preacher of the Word, a perfect pair. Glory to God.
Above are few pictures of the conference. We had other guest speakers, there was a great move of the Holy Spirit.
