Read how Jacqueline feels called to lead and work with other single mothers in her single mom ministry call despite her disability.
Single Mom Ministry
Hi, my name is Jacqueline Williams and I have a single mom ministry call. I live in South Carolina in the United States of America, and I truly enjoy helping others. I volunteer at my church for the community weekly food distribution for the needy. I always stop to hold a door or offer a hand where I see the need. I feel led to work with single, young, female parents in my single mom ministry call. I was a teen single mom, and I remember how challenging that was.
As a child, I was not raised in going to a church. Instead, we studied at home when my grandmother had time. I came to Christ after becoming a single parent, and I quickly learned there is a higher power. This was made evident in the many blessings I received from the Lord. The Lord our Savior Jesus Christ has used me to teach and tell the good news about His unconditional love. I was, for a time, spiritually in a very lowly place, but my life changed drastically as God used my situation to His glory. It was made plain in my life for others to see that His mercy and grace endures forever.
I am unemployed at this time. I have a spinal injury that has made me unable to work. I know things will get better for me, I am praying to receive disability income. I will continue to spread the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. I will also share the blessing of Christian Leaders Institute, which is helping to build a kingdom of leaders through education and encouragement.
Thank you, CLI, for the blessing of free higher education online.

Read Andrew Elliot’s testimony of how studying at Christian Leaders Institute is helping him achieve his spiritual dream of spreading the gospel through teaching and counseling with God’s Kingdom Vision guiding him:
Kingdom Vision
My name is Andrew Elliott and I have God’s Kingdom vision guiding my life. I currently live in Canada and am serving God’s Kingdom in whatever way He leads me to. I am studying at Christian Leaders Institute to gain a greater knowledge of the Bible and receive free ministry training online. I am doing this with the hope and plan to spread the gospel through teaching, proclaiming, and counseling.
My coming across Christian Leaders Institute has been a blessing for me in many ways. First, I am thankful for the pioneering work of Henry Reyenga in founding this free ministry training Bible school. It is very inspiring for me and it is the kind of work that I wish to do for the glory of God’s Kingdom. I can see God’s Kingdom vision in everything that Christian Leaders Institute does.
Second, the Christian Leaders Institute allows me the opportunity to study the Bible at a very high level and at my own pace. I also can study any time and anywhere at an extremely affordable price (free).
Thank you, Christian Leaders Institute, for this very wonderful opportunity to receive a college education and ministry training for free.

From Darkness to Redemption
Meet Sally Countess
My name is Sally Countess and I have a restoration call on my life. I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado in the U.S.A. and I am a grateful believer in Jesus Christ. I am 22 years old and I have lived a very blessed life by God. He has held me close and protected me from so much harm in my rebellion. I was fortunate to have grown up in an amazing Christian family. I accepted Christ at a young age, but it was not until early 2018 that I began my daily walk with the Lord.
A Second Chance Through Christ
For a long time, I focused on my image and seeking acceptance from the wrong crowds. Over time, I became involved with drugs, shoplifting, robberies, and assault. My community was filled with negativity and darkness, and I became deeply consumed by it. I reached a point where I was close to taking my own life.
In March this year, I started going to church again on Sunday, living a double life, every other day of the week. Part of me enjoyed my sin, and I needed rescuing from the darkness of depression and substance abuse.
I was arrested for aggravated robbery on March 28th. God found me right where I was.
I recommitted my life to Christ on Easter Sunday, April 1st. My walk with God was difficult at first as the Holy Spirit revealed unhealthy habits that needed to change. During that season, I begin my walk with Him, He poured His love over me and gave me a restoration call. My parents showed me the love of Christ every day. After witnessing the transformation in my life, they chose to bond me out at the end of June.
Today, I am living a life shaped by God’s love, grace, and a restoration call. Although I still face the consequences of my past choices, I rest in the peace of knowing that God has forgiven me and continues to guide my life. I have been given a second chance, and each day I choose to walk in the light He provides. I am deeply grateful for the work God has done in my life and for the transformation He continues to bring as I commit my future fully to Him.
A Restoration Call
I am grateful for the opportunity to gain a higher education at Christian Leaders Institute. Because I believe that God has plans to use me in the lives of others and the free training helps. I have a passion for people struggling with abuse and addiction, and I will strive to get the experience needed to help those who struggle with these things.
“The Lord has blessed me, and I pray His blessing over all those who are hurting. Thank you, CLI, for all you do in people’s lives! You are truly a blessing in every way!”
