Empowering Minds: Unleashing the Revolutionary Force of Education for Lifelong Growth Churches of Christ Supporting the Rise of a Faith-Based Institution
In an age where education shapes destinies and spiritual grounding defines purpose, the union of faith and learning has never been more critical. At the heart of this noble mission lies a profound movement led by the Churches of Christ, whose unwavering support has been instrumental in building and sustaining faith-based institutions like Obong University—a sanctuary for academic excellence rooted in Christian values.
A Vision Born of Faith and Wisdom
The vision, encapsulated in the theme “Empowering Minds: Unleashing the Revolutionary Force of Education for Lifelong Growth,” is not just a statement—it is a call to action. It symbolizes a commitment to nurturing minds and spirits through holistic education that integrates biblical truth with rigorous academic training. At Obong University, students are not only learning how to succeed in their careers but also how to live lives of service, integrity, and faith.
This would not be possible without the tireless efforts and generous support of Churches of Christ across Nigeria, the United States, and other parts of the world. These congregations have sown seeds of transformation by providing financial backing, moral encouragement, and consistent prayers that sustain the mission.
Gratitude to Our Supporting Churches
We express our deepest gratitude to all the Churches of Christ who have chosen to invest in this transformative cause. Your contributions are not just supporting a university; they are shaping generations of Christian leaders, teachers, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs, and missionaries who will carry the light of Christ into every sector of society.
Your support has allowed Obong University to grow—physically, academically, and spiritually. From infrastructure development to faculty training, from student scholarships to outreach programs, your sacrifices are bearing fruit in ways that only eternity can fully measure.
International Collaboration and Academic Quality
Drawing from his extensive academic network abroad, Professor Akpanudo facilitated partnerships between Obong University and institutions in the United States, including Lubbock Christian University and other churches and universities. These partnerships have provided academic exchange opportunities, faculty development programs, and infrastructural support, helping to elevate the quality of education at Obong University.
A Call for Continued Support and Partnership
As we reflect with gratitude, we also look forward with faith and renewed determination. The journey of faith-based education is ongoing, and the need for support is ever present. We invite more congregations, individuals, and partners to join this divine mission.
Proverbs 4:7 (KJV) "Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding."
True transformation begins with wisdom grounded in faith. As we support faith-based education, we are investing in understanding that shapes hearts, guides futures, and glorifies God.
Your continued patronage—through donations, student sponsorships, missionary involvement, and awareness campaigns—will expand our capacity to serve more students, enhance our academic programs, and strengthen our spiritual impact. Every gift counts. Every prayer matters. Every voice that shares our mission helps to amplify the reach of this transformative work.
Let Us Build Together
As the Scriptures remind us, “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain” (Psalm 127:1). Together, with God as our foundation and the Churches of Christ as our co-builders, we are laying stones that will stand the test of time—shaping minds, changing lives, and glorifying God.
May we remain united in this purpose, as we continue to empower minds and unleash the revolutionary force of education for lifelong growth—faithfully, boldly, and together.
