The Karstens (South Africa)
Paul Karstens is native to South Africa and received his theological training at Toronto Baptist Seminary. After teaching for many years in the Bible Institute of South Africa, God called Paul to change course and started The School for Biblical Church Leadership in 2020. He takes training directly to poorly trained pastors who could never afford to attend a Bible college.
Ugandan Pastors
After learning that Pastor Price’s congregation needed money to buy land to build their own church building, CRBC donated the money. Pastor Price serves in the Ugandan Bush along with Pastor Stephen. After prayerful consideration, we were led of the Lord to provide regular support for these pastors.
