“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved,

a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly handling

the word of truth.”  

— 2 Timothy 2:15

Last month, 16 men at the Clemens Unit completed all 16 TUMI modules. Their graduation celebrated not just their achievement, but the transformation of their hearts and purpose. Pastor Charles joined the celebration, honoring these men as they stepped into God’s calling.

Congratulations, TUMI graduates of Clemens Class ’26!

Meanwhile, at the Wynne Unit22 students reached the halfway point of TUMI. 

Module 8Evangelism and Spiritual Warfare, inspired ministry in unexpected ways. Men encouraged one another, shared prayers, and some encountered faith for the first time. Lessons and shared meals became moments of hope and lasting impact.

Rick Browatzke, our Region 1 Manager, reminded them:

“You are not here by accident. Two years in, the novelty has worn off and the work has become costly—but that is exactly where real formation happens. God is shaping not only what you know, but who you are. Faithful study, disciplined habits, and quiet obedience are forging something solid and lasting in you.

You are learning to handle the Word of God with care, humility, and truth—not to impress others, but to honor Christ and serve people well. Keep pressing on.

Excellence in theology and Christian character is not about speed, but about faithfulness over time. Stay the course. God is at work in you, and what He is building now will matter far beyond these walls.”

At Epiphany Life Change, our mission is to equip men and women with Christian leadership that brings real change, real hope, and lasting impact.

May God bless you and keep you,

Pastor Charles Anderson and The ELC Team
