Apostle Courage Igene of All Nations Churches has announced plans to host the next full session of the Joshua Generation School of Ministry, JGM from September to December 2026, as part of efforts to equip church workers and ministers for effective evangelism and church growth in today’s world.
The United States-based preacher and instructor said the school was established to provide practical training that aligns with present-day realities of ministry, and to raise believers who can reach the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ with the right tools and understanding.
Speaking on the vision of JGM, Apostle Courage Igene said the school was open to churches, individuals, and Christian faith-based organizations who desire to be equipped for ministerial exploits.
“Churches can send their workers and ministers to have an in-depth experience on how ministry can be managed effectively,” he stated. “Our vision is ‘Equipping the saints for the work of the ministry’ as captured in Ephesians 4:12. Joshua Generation School of Ministry has made it easier for Christians to participate through online training.”
According to him, the school runs biannually in two full sessions each year, March to June and September to December. Within a two-year period, students are expected to take over 60 courses across the sessions. The upcoming September to December 2026 session will be a full session and will be delivered online to accommodate participants across different locations.
Apostle Igene noted that JGM has become a training ground for missionaries, church planters, pastors, and workers who want to grow and manage their ministries effectively. He explained that the curriculum was designed to address both the spiritual and administrative demands of ministry in the 21st century.
Courses available to students in the session include Administration, Spiritual Ethics, Practical Theology, and a Bonus Course on The Minister’s Health to be facilitated by Dr. Tanya Mays-Jeune & Dr. Vivian Godwin. Other modules are structured to strengthen doctrine, leadership, outreach, and personal development for those in ministry.
At the end of the semester, a cap and gown graduation banquet will be organized for all successful students. Participants will receive a certificate of completion and will also be ministered to with prayers of impartation in areas relating to their ministerial calling.
JGM has in the last few years trained hundreds of ministers and church workers across Africa, Europe, and North America, with many alumni now leading churches, missions, and outreach programs.
Churches and interested individuals have been encouraged to register early for the September to December 2026 session to secure a place in what organizers describe as “an intensive season of equipping, training, and impartation for the work of the ministry.”
