Church Planting, Discipleship, and Community Care in Zimbabwe, Africa
Oasis of Grace Bible School (OGBS) began in 1997 when a Douglas Laet felt called by God to teach the Bible to others. We saw tremendous potential in him, sent him to Bible college and he returned to help Emmanuel's brother, Maxwell Zihove, begin OGBS. The first student was Betty Zihove.
Servant-Leaders
Our goal at OGBS is to train and equip Christ-following, servant-leaders to have an impact and to equip others as they have been equipped. We do so with a comprehensive curriculum of Old and New Testament Studies, Basic Theology, Basic Doctrine and discipleship.
Teachers and Students
OGBS teachers are primarily Zimbabwean nationals with some visiting teachers from other parts of the world. Students are from Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, Kenya. One has even come from Canada. Currently we have three campuses - two in Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe and one campus in Mozambique. Altogether, about 80 students have completed the two-year program since OGBS began.
