AMAHORO AFRICA - Holistic Community Transformation

Claude Nikondeha, with a committed circle of friends, is founder and president of Amahoro Africa.
Amahoro Africa is working to see the Gospel of Jesus bringing transformation to communities across Africa.  We facilitate holistic transformation by encouraging, resourcing and connecting emerging African leaders who are committed to the tangible manifestation of justice, mercy and goodness in their local context.
Amahoro Africa works with those, African or not, who desire to engage in respectful partnerships that intend to further transformation in African communities in the name and spirit of Jesus.  We are excited to work alongside those who are willing to themselves be changed in the process of these friendships with African leaders.


Claude and Kelly Nikondeha's story is told in the first three chapters of Brian McClaren's, Everything Must Change. Claude has been active in the eLeaders fellowship.

CASA ESPERANZA PARA NIñOS- A Safe Home for Abandon and Abused Children

In the fall of 1998, Adonna Cullumber started to fulfill her life-long dream of providing a safe environment for abused and abandoned children. Having grown up taking care of the babies of migrant farm workers she had a special passion for the children of Mexico. An introduction to Carmen Esperilla, a Mexico/U.S. Citizen, revealed that

Carmen shared the same dream. Shortly thereafter, they made the acquaintance of Edna Ruiz, a retired school administrator in Hermosillo Mexico. Edna was inspired by their dream and joined their team. January 1999 marked the beginning of a journey toward a better world for abused and abandoned children, Casa Esperanza para Niños.

THE GLOBAL BUSINESS LEADERSHIP CENTER - International Graduate Education

The mission of the Global Business Leadership Center is to transform society through business. We equip business leaders and business students to “Transform Society through Business”. The center engages these leaders and students with societal transformation models, and mentors them in making a positive impact on those in their circle of influence. The center equips business leaders to be successful in serving where God has called them to serve.

The Transformation Models

Understanding the impact of globalization on our world and knowing how to capitalize on the global economy are required of a business leader or business student today. Talking with global leaders, seeing firsthand the impacts of culture, political systems and economic systems on global business and understanding how to apply that knowledge in a business environment are invaluable in developing global business acumen.

Seeing transformation happen in a business context is necessary for persons preparing for a global leadership role. The center will prepare global leaders to be transformational leaders by strengthening their understanding of social, economic, educational and spiritual issues as seen through various cultural filters. Dr. Rob Simpson leads the Global Business Leadership Center.
