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.

Dr. Rachael Schweiger, Diplomatic Advisor to the Honorary Ambassador at Large for the Republic of Burundi, Clyde Rivers, was active again last week helping bring awareness to a major health issue in the world today as she participated in a launch party for Sisters 4 Survivors, an organization working to better the lives of those facing breast cancer. Breast cancer is the second leading cancer among American women. Dr. Schweiger commented, “Breast cancer awareness is the first step towards stopping this disease. The effects of this growing epidemic can be curtailed if people are informed with the correct information and are proactive by getting examined regularly and having mammograms. These few things can save many lives!” Many people are surprised to learn that there is a drastic increase in the number of younger women getting it and that even men are at risk for breast cancer.  Breast cancer survivor and Vice President of Sisters 4 Survivors, Darce Roberts, said, “A diagnosis of breast cancer is life changing. I cannot stress enough the importance of early detection. If you think something isn’t right, go get checked, no matter what age you are. You can never be prepared for a diagnosis of cancer, but catching it early and having a strong support system is imperative to a good recovery.” When diagnosed at its earliest stages, the five-year survival rate for breast cancer can be as high as 98%. Dr. Rivers stated, “People with passion like Dr. Schweiger are the true world changers. Her love for mankind always challenges her to get involved to make a difference.”

INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN WITH A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE

 Dr. Rachael Schweiger

International humanitarian and Advisor for Burundi, Dr. Rachael Schweiger, has had a busy month. She’s been involved in various humanitarian activities in the State of Oregon including helping Horizon Christian High School athletics and student body, Esperanza Iglesia en Cristo Church’s cross cultural out-reach program, and Sisters 4 Survivors, a breast cancer support group. Dr. Schweiger believes that everyone has value. The unfortunate thing is that not everyone in the world has equal opportunity but in God everyone has equality. Dr. Schweiger said, “I truly want to see people reach their God-given purpose and potential.” To help reach this end, she has also mentored Young Ambassadors who bring projects to Africa, and partnered with a local elementary school to raise funds to support a partner school in Burundi. She had also written peace keeping curriculum and taught it globally. A Burundi representative at the United Nations General Assembly in New York City, Professor Clyde Rivers, commented, “This is the kind of heart we need if we are going to change the world, the heart of a true humanitarian such as Dr. Schweiger.”
