On 9th July 2026, CLA DRC students participated in a Capstone Session.
During the session, students presented a summary of their key learnings and reflected on their journey — before, during, and after the program. A significant highlight was students connecting the lessons learned to the life and influence of a leader who has impacted them. This exercise helped them internalize the values taught and see how leadership is lived out in real life. The session marked a meaningful moment of reflection, gratitude, and vision for applying what they have learned.

“And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.”

On Tuesday, 26 May 2026 and Thursday, 28 May 2026, CDA DR-Congo concluded its discipleship program. Dr. Stay taught on Kindness and Humility, and Mr. Baraka taught on Gratitude and Joy. These final sessions marked the completion of the current discipleship series. We trust that the values shared throughout these lessons will remain in the students’ hearts and be demonstrated in their character, relationships, and service. Our sincere appreciation goes to the Discipleship Coordinator, Mr. Philip Balume, for his faithful leadership and dedication throughout the program.

Last week in Tanzania, CLA held a COSA retreat for Stage 1 students transitioning into Stage 2. The retreat served as an orientation and equipping session where students were introduced to the objectives, expectations, and spiritual formation focus of Stage 2, also known as COSA. Through teaching, discussion, and fellowship, students gained a clear understanding of what this next phase of discipleship entails. The retreat concluded successfully, with students encouraged and prepared to begin Stage 2 with renewed commitment.

On 16th May, Cornerstone Leadership Academy Rwanda hosted a successful Homecoming gathering that brought together alumni across generations. The event was attended by representatives from the pioneer class through to the 2025 class, reflecting the growth and continuity of the CLA community. The program included mentor-mentee pairings, which allowed mentees to reconnect with their mentors and build meaningful relationships. The day was marked by fellowship, shared meals, bonding activities, and games, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie and celebration. It was a memorable occasion that strengthened connections within the CLA network and reinforced the spirit of mentorship and community that defines the Academy.

The AYLF Retreat was held in Bujumbura, Burundi, from 8th to 10th May 2026 under the theme “Renewing Our Mindset.” The program brought together 102 members for three days of teaching, reflection, and fellowship. The retreat was led by Tim, affectionately known as Uncle Tim, who guided participants through sessions on personal transformation and intentional growth. His teaching focused on the importance of aligning thought patterns with purpose and truth, emphasizing that lasting change begins in the mind. Uncle Tim challenged members to identify limiting beliefs, replace them with constructive perspectives, and develop habits that support discipline, resilience, and clarity of vision. He highlighted that renewing the mindset is not a one-time event but a continuous process that shapes attitudes, decisions, and ultimately, one’s future. Participants left the retreat encouraged and equipped with practical steps for applying these principles in their daily lives. We believe the experience marked a turning point for many, and we trust that their lives will continue to reflect the transformation begun during those three days.
