Testimonials

The foundation of the ministry I am undertaking now is a result of the tools I acquired during my studies at CDL. I have more confidence in carrying out my ministry, and my fellow students have become my best ministry partners.

Lourenço Manuel

I received a solid biblical foundation at CDL that enables me to teach and preach the Word of God with confidence and courage. I thank God for the opportunity I had to study at CDL and for well-equipped and dedicated faculty.

Verónica Zambeze

CDL provided me with solid biblical and theological tools. Studying biblical exposition prepared me to work with the United Bible Society translating biblical texts in local languages. I also lead a new congregation of believers.
