Sophie
Mpundu

Founder

Hey beautiful people, my name is Sophia Mpundu. Some people call me Soso. I started this Bible study at the start of January with my cousins as part of our New Year's resolution to grow closer to God. Being a teenager, it's not always easy to stay connected, but this bible study has been a total game changer for me. It's helped me understand the Bible in a way I never thought possible, and I feel so much more connected to my faith. Honestly, it's been an incredible journey, and that's why I think you should join us. What started as a small group has grown so much, and it's amazing to see so many people coming together to explore their faith. its not just a bible study it's like a big family where we support each other and grow together. If you're looking for a place to connect with others and deepen your faith, this is it.

Founder

Wassup Y'all, my name is Yvan. When I was presented with this Idea by Sophie and Denise. I was excited because I already wanted to do bible study with someone. Since the bible study was created I’ve seen growth in every aspect of my life. This year my life seemed like it was breaking down, but bible study helped me reconnect with God and since then it’s only been improvement. This bible study has not only became a community but it has became family. So if you want to block out the outside world and build a connection with God, I would highly recommend joining.

Denise
Nyamariza

Founder

Hello beautiful people my name is Denise, I started this Bible study at the start of January with my cousin as part of our New Year's resolution to grow closer to God. This bible study has helped me feel stronger, more peaceful, and reminded me that God is always with me.
Why you should join our Bible study? If you’re looking for a real connection with others, a place where you feel supported, and want to understand the Bible better, this is the perfect place for you. Bible study is not just about reading the Bible it’s about learning how to live it out in your everyday life. You get to ask questions, hear different ideas, and grow in your relationship with God. Being part of a group helps you feel like you’re not alone. We all go through hard times, and having people who pray with you and encourage you makes a big difference. You’ll meet kind and caring people who become like family.
For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.” — Matthew 18:20

A little about me: What’s up with yall! A little spew about me is i love running, i run for Wittenberg University and play other sports too. I was invited to this Bible study by a friend when it first started. At the time, I was going through a lot, and joining this group helped me build a closer relationship with God. It’s been a source of strength, peace, and growth, and I know it can do the same for others. We just have to keep spreading the gospel and showing love.Why I’m a child of God: On New Year’s Eve, I was praising the Lord and, for the first time, I truly felt the Holy Spirit. I broke down crying because I knew, without a doubt, that God was real and He was with me. That moment changed my life, and ever since, I’ve walked with Him.

Sam
Mukiza

Leader

Hey Y’all!! my name is Sam and I’ve been a part of this bible study since january 2025. I joined this bible study looking for a community that wanted to grow their faith and that is exactly what I found and more. I would suggest for everyone to join this bible study or have their own because your environment and the people you surround yourself with plays a big part in your walk, the bible has this to say about it in 1 corinthians 15:33 “Do not be misled: Bad company corrupts good character.” That’s enough about me, now I hope to get to know you!!

Ruben
Kwizera

Leader

Wagwan fam!
My name is Ruben, and I’m from Wisconsin. I love dancing for God and spreading His Word. I’m here to learn more about God with y’all and grow in faith together.
The journey of walking in faith isn’t always easy, and that’s exactly why this group exists — so we can support each other, encourage one another, and keep pushing forward in Christ.
Luke 9:23
“And He said to all, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.’”
Following Jesus means leaving everything behind and fully committing to Him — and that’s the goal frl frl
So join us, grow with us, help yourself and help others.
Let’s walk this faith journey together.

Tabitha
Manirakiza

Leader

Hello everyone !! my name is Tabitha I was introduced to this Bible study by a friend, and I had no idea just how much it would transform my life
For years, I loved the Lord deeply but quietly I kept my worship hidden afraid to speak too loudly about the love burning inside me I felt alone in my walk unsure of how to express the feelings I had inside
But this Bible study this family, showed me what it means to live boldly for Christ. Surrounded by love, grace, and truth, I found a place where I could grow, worship freely, and finally feel seen
Through this community, I gained more than just friends I found a home My spirit has been renewed, my heart made whole, and my love for Christ has grown deeper than ever before
Now I walk in freedom. I worship without fear and because of him I am Healed and set free :))

Beline
Shukuru

Leader

Hey lovelies! My name is Beline. At the start of this year, I joined this Bible study with a strong desire to deepen my relationship with the Lord and grow in my understanding of His Word.
It’s been such a blessing to see transformation, not only in myself but in others. I never imagined that this year I would find a new family, but here we are. Being apart of God’s Children isn’t just about studying His Word but about living out His truth daily.
Through the grace of our Heavenly Father, I have witnessed prayers be answered, hope renewed, and lives restored. I can confidently say I’ve found a genuine community that truly reflects God’s love, which is such a powerful gift!!
“We love because He first loved us.” ❤️
1 John 4:19 NIV

Espoir
Ndabarishe

Leader

It all started at an event. I was praying—just me and God—and out of nowhere, a pastor came over and laid his hand on me. In that moment, I felt the Holy Spirit so strongly that I couldn’t hold back the tears. I didn’t even know what was happening—I just knew God was real, and He was touching my heart. That night, everything changed. Since then, I haven’t been able to stop living for Him.

A friend added me to a Bible study not long after that. And honestly, it just added even more fire to what God started in me. Every session hit deep. I started inviting people too, just like I was invited. And now… we’re growing. More hearts, more testimonies, more of God.

What started as a moment turned into a movement. Now I lead this Bible study because I want others to feel what I felt—that real encounter with God that changes everything. If He did it for me, He can do it for you too.

So keep adding your people. God’s not done yet.

Nelly
Mfurakazi

Leader

Hey everyone! My name is Nelly.
When Sophie first invited me to join her Bible study, I honestly didn’t know what to expect. I came in with no expectations; just a willingness to try something new. Looking back now, I can confidently say that saying “yes” was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my walk with God.
This Bible study has truly become a part of who I am. It’s not just a weekly gathering, it’s a source of encouragement that keeps me grounded, motivated, and hungry for more of God’s Word. Through it, I’ve grown spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. I’ve met some of the most amazing people who now feel like family. They’ve shown me what it means to support and uplift one another through every season of life. I know I can count on them, and that’s something I’ll never take for granted.
If you’re looking for a space to grow in your faith, to feel seen, supported, and inspired, this is it. This is your invitation to take a step, just like I did. Join us on this beautiful journey of faith. You won’t regret it.💛

Jayden
Gisa

Leader

Yoo I’m Jayden and I’m very grateful to be apart of God’s Children. Gedeon introduced this community to me and ever since then, I haven’t looked back. I love learning more about God and doing it with people like me is even better. Mark 13:13 says, “Everyone will hate you because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.” So let’s all stand firm in Christ and keep learning about his word together.

Jireh
Mugisha

Leader

Hello everyone! My name is Jireh, but I go by Jojo. I’m 18 years young, 6’2”, a big LeBron fan, and a proud MOG (Man of God). I was first introduced to this Bible study around February of this year. At first, I wasn’t very consistent because I wasn’t really a crucial part of their team or friend group—I was always in and out, never fully committed.
However, about a month ago, I became truly consistent and a vital member of the group. Since then, I’ve learned a lot and grown tremendously alongside my brothers and sisters in Christ. I highly recommend this Bible study to anyone who feels lost or finds themselves around the wrong crowd that might lead them down the wrong path. I’ve witnessed people come from darkness into the light, and I’ve seen miracles happen within the Bible study.
Big things are about to start happening, and I invite everyone to be a part of it. Thank you very much for reading. I love you, and God loves you!

My name is Samuel Bizimana, I joined this Bible study as something to push me to be the most consistent I can be in my walk with Christ. This Bible study has helped me because day by day I not only learn more about the Bible but I also get better at interpreting verses.This Bible study is a great example of a Christ rooted community.Proverbs 27:17

Hyguette
Uwase

Leader

Heyy fam!! My name is Hyguette, and I've been part of this Bible study group for a bit now. It's been an amazing journey of growth through Christ. The insights and discussions have really shaped me, helping me to better understand and represent Christ in my daily life. I'm grateful for how it's transformed my perspective and actions. I highly suggest this family because as I asked God for a faith based friendship and he gave this family.

“And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”

Gedeon
Muhire

Leader

Wassup yalllll!
My name is Gedeon Muhire. I joined this Bible study to be around people my age that I could worship and grow with. It’s helped me through different seasons; times when I needed accountability, consistency, or just someone to talk to. They were always there, feel me?
Y’all should join because it’s not just some adult preaching while you zone out. We actually talk, connect, and grow together. It’s real people, our age, walking this walk with God. And in this generation, that’s something we all need.

Benny
Rugabo

Leader

Wasgud wasgud wasgud everyone, I'm Benny Rugabo. I joined Bible study because I was a lost soul searching for guidance in life and in God. Bible study has truly helped me; it's my testimony. I was lost without the Word, but now I am found in the Lord. I believe others would be blessed to join, hear the Word, fellowship, and spread the Gospel. Amen.
