Fruitful Orality Training 2024 - Equipping for Evangelism and Discipleship

The Orality Training 2024, organized by the Institute of Leadership and Missions (IOLAM), successfully took place from Tuesday, July 30th to Friday, August 2nd, 2024, at the Christ Kingdom Church Premises, TOASA, in Upper West. This event marked another milestone in our journey to equip leaders, ministers, and missionaries with essential skills for effective evangelism and discipleship through storytelling and oral communication.

Apostle Dr. Moses Sansa Konjon, the President of IOLAM and Executive Director of FMN, led the sessions, bringing both passion and deep insight into the power of orality in ministry. His engaging presentations highlighted how oral strategies can be leveraged in today's world to reach communities that are largely oral-based, an approach that is increasingly relevant in regions with limited access to formal literacy tools.

Key Highlights of the Event

• Engaging Sessions: Participants experienced hands-on learning through interactive workshops, practical storytelling exercises, and discussions on how to deliver messages effectively in both formal and informal settings.

• Storytelling for Discipleship: One key takeaway from the training was the importance of using biblical narratives to communicate timeless truths. By focusing on storytelling, attendees were better equipped to simplify complex theological ideas into relatable and memorable stories.

• Transformational Impact: The training emphasized the role of storytelling not just in evangelism but also in fostering deeper discipleship relationships. Testimonies from the participants highlighted how the tools they learned will enhance their ability to build lasting connections within their communities.
