MAKING A DIFFERENCE THROUGH PARTNERSHIP AND CONNECTIONS Everyday thousands of people are being saved in Africa One of the reasons Brother Kenneth and Sister Gloria Copeland have seen the results they have in their lives and ministry is because when they realized what the Word of God would do, they immersed themselves in it. They turned off the radio and television, put down the newspaper, and spent nearly every waking moment either reading the Word, listening to tapes on the Word, talking about the Word, thinking about the Word and eventually this had a powerful effect on them. It began to revolutionize everything about their life and their ministry. And it began to turn failure into success, that is what the Word can do for every person who is serious about living a life surrendered to God. In consistency lies the power. Kenneth Copeland Ministries has been in Africa for almost 40 years helping people grow in their walk with the Lord. God called Brother Copeland to take the Word of God from the top of the world to the bottom and all the way around the middle. And with the help of our Partners and Friends across Africa, we are getting it done! Over these years both the continent and our ministry have undergone many changes, and God receives all the glory. His faithfulness has made all the difference in many nations of Africa and KCM’s ministry to thousands upon thousands of people in those nations. In July 2009, Christine Blumstein stepped into the leadership position as Managing Director of KCM Africa with her feet firmly planted in the foundational mission of KCM and with these words from the Lord ringing in 64
her ears: Teach My people that My Word works. All they have to do is always walk by faith in love, not just some of the time. “The past 10 years I have learned to take Him at His Word, and He has come through not just once, but every time. It has been the greatest years in the history of KCM Africa, as we basked in the Father’s amazing Great Grace upon this office and our lives. We rejoice because we see lives changed, and more souls coming into the kingdom of God. As we sow, we have received more finances to get the work completed. The fact that we cannot out-give God is such a reality to us as a staff we soon realized we are no longer simply surviving—we are thriving!” “Monthly we as the African Office sow 20% or more of our income into other ministries. I must make mention, that most people believe that we receive financial support from the States, not so. Brother Copeland believes that we have all been given the same measure of faith. We are grateful for our local Partners; I believe that we have the best Partners and together we are making a difference in AFRICA!”
CONNECTING WITH THE PEOPLE Through the dedication of anointed staff members, KCM Africa has reached goal after goal in connecting with the people of sub-Saharan Africa and ministering the good news of Jesus to the people of the region. These faithful staff members are humbled and thankful for all the Lord has accomplished through them. “For us and all of KCM, we have found that technology, especially
social media, is an amazing tool at our disposal to reach the world and teach them that Jesus is Lord.” On our website kcm.org.za, the Victory broadcast page and the Victory magazine are the most visited. VICTORY TV and Radio reach hundreds of thousands of viewers and listeners all across Africa through many partner television and radio stations. The Covid-19 pandemic has changed our everyday reality of how we do things across all aspects of our lives. Governments across the world have had to implement movement restricting measures in response to this pandemic. This has had the effect of shifting our everyday reality; how we communicate, relate to each other, and do business has been considerably altered. We have not been immune to these shifting realities. We as a ministry are faced with the new reality of intensifying the use of technology to reach and communicate with our Partners and Friends while obeying various restrictive lockdown measures. These digitals innovations have been a blessing to us, we are considered a media ministry, therefore we were only inconvenienced for a week since the start of the lockdown time whilst we were busy setting up staff at their various homes. Must admit that we miss personal interaction with our Partners, during these times when social distancing is a priority, but this too shall pass. For nearly 40 years, with integrity based on the Word of God, Kenneth and Gloria have ministered to their Partners and Friends who make their home in Sub-Sahara Africa.
