Amb. Clyde Rivers

The small African country of Burundi is truly changing the mindset of the world on nation development. This nation of 8.5 million people has become the light of the world, because of one word love.

As I travel through the country of Burundi I sometimes just stop and ask the people how the feel about the President and the Leadership of the country. What the vast majority say to me is that he loves us. Think about this for someone to say someone loves them, there has to be action behind it. What I can say about the country of Burundi is the people have seen the actions of the leadership of the country and they call it love". President Pierre Nkurunziza, keep loving the people it's changing the nation. A new way to nation build is to love the human resource and they will build their own country. Only love can change us.

United Graduate College and Seminary International Fight For Religious Freedom Around the World

UGCSI-Professor Clyde Rivers

It is a great day for United Graduate College and Seminary International we are pushing to bring religious education to the fore-front of the education agendas of the world. We are a private non- government Christian educational institution. We believe in religious freedom for all. Many constitutions of the world today say they have religious freedom as they practice intolerance towards religious freedom. Religious freedom should mean that religious rights are equal not second place to the systems of the world.

We are exposing religious intolerance in many countries of the world. United Graduate College and Seminary International states that ministry degrees are important for ministers and people of faith. We believe all faiths should have the right within education to be considered as professional degrees around the world, where there is religious freedom in the constitutions. We will not take a back seat to anyone in the world, because God is with us. We will continue to stand for religious freedom around the world.
