Rev. Ingayo wrote these words to us:

I am Rev. Klero Onuha Ingayo, a South Sudanese by nationality, born on January 27^th, 1967 in Lohutok, South Sudan, and was raised up in a non-Christian family. I became involved in Church activities in 1974 such as Sunday school, youth programs and now I’m a pastor. Thus, I strongly believed and felt that God has a purpose for me to do some definite ministry, specifically among my tribesmen who have not heard the message of Salvation and even beyond to the unreached people of South Sudan. That is why God directed me to UGCSI to be equipped for this great service. I have decided willingly to service in order to win to bring leadership improvement to the church.

Now I’m the program manager for the Bible Society South of South Sudan, writing project proposals and running the trauma healing program. It is not an easy responsibility as our country is going through political and economic crisis and conflicts is all around the country. What I have in my mind is what I have learned from UGCSI. I did learn leadership and it has helped me as I’m managing this Church institution.  I use what I learned from UGCSI and pray that God will use me to be an example in this institution. My appreciation to the Board of UGCSI, Chief Chancellor Clyde Rivers, Chancellor Michal Pitzl, and my Professor Donella Pitzl.

God blessings to you all,

Klero Onuha Ingayo

I am so grateful and proud to be a student of United Graduate College and Seminary International for the last two years. In the first place, I thank the Board of Admission for accepting me to study in UGCSI.     

I have enrolled in United Graduate College and Seminary International to study a doctoral degree in Christian Leadership.  With great delight, I would like to testify that, I have enjoyed my studies at UGCSI for two main reasons:

1)    UGCSI courses are carefully selected to suit the contemporary challenges Christian leaders face in the ministry. The courses are designed to provide strategies appropriate to Christian leadership and its real life issues. The courses engage leaders in finding practical solutions to counteract their given situations.  

  

2)  UGCSI has well qualified and experienced instructors. In particular, I am so grateful to Professor Donella Pitzl.  She took me through my course work and dissertation, her intrinsic motivation born out of deep seated passion for educating a man like me, has became a source of inspiration to me.  That is, her thorough and smart academic work in mentoring and her exhibition of high degree of mastery of the subject posed a great impression on me. An impact I will ever live to emulate. She is such a wonderful mentor, with the spirit of patience, focus and promptness with evaluation of assignments I have sent to her.

For sure, all those who went through UGCSI and through whom UGCSI went would agree with me on this fact. Henceforth, join me friends to blow the trumpet of UGCSI’s goodness wherever you are  serving the Almighty God.
