From Participant To A3/Philippines National Director

BY REV. ENIONG HILARIO

I am deeply grateful for A3. God has used it in a powerful way to renew my life, and I’m thankful for the opportunity to share my story with you—the same story I recently shared at our 2026 Leaders Summit in Malaysia.

A3.Women In Ministry Participant in India

I'm Carol Christopher from Hyderabad, India.

My husband is an alumnus of A3. Each time he came home from A3 programs, he used to share with us the life transformation stories. Then I remember thinking, “Why don't we get this opportunity? Why only men?”

The newest group of graduates to the A3 family inspired me as they shared the impact of the last two and half years...

GRADUATE TESTIMONIAL FROM A3/PHILIPPINES

Before coming to A3, I was a leader in a liminal space—transitioning from what was to what is about to come. I felt anxious, doubtful, and undeserving of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But the invitation I heard from God through our first quiet time during the A3 retreat at the Christian Development Centre in Tagaytay was:

I enjoyed seeing A3/Bangladesh class 2 leaders wrestle with Byron MacDonald's teaching...

Being in this South Asian country this week has truly inspired me. Alumni caught the vision for community and living in a love relationship with God...

These two pastors pulled me aside to personally thank me for the investment of A3.

A3.Women In Ministry Participant in Cambodia

Hello, my name is Rady. I am a part of A3.Women In Ministry in Cambodia.

WIM in Cambodia has helped me a lot, especially because here in Cambodia, 75 to 80% of the church congregation are women.

Five A3/Cambodia graduates shared their learning with a small village northeast of Phnom Penh. A3 alumni frequently visit towns to pass on what they have learned...

Here in Jakarta, Indonesia, we've just finished up a session with the A3 cohort. It's our second session, and I just wanted to share about how wonderful it was to just be with all these pastors—men and women of different ages, different levels of experience, but what a great community they're building.

Allow me to share to you what has been happening in our part of the world...

A3/India alumnus Dr. Danny Sathyadass shares how A3 impacted him and what lessons he is passing on to others

When I was first invited for A3, I was quite reluctant because I had just finished my MTh (Master of Theology), and I didn't want to go through another course, so to speak. But then I was reassured that it's not a course of lots of reading, but it's something different. So I said, “Okay, fine. If that's what it is, I probably would join in.”

Viewing A3 Alumni Survey Results

"This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples."
John 15:8 

Periodically we try to assess whether we are meeting the mark and being fruitful in our overall ministry thus we try various ways to discern how effective we are. Evaluation is crucial to see if we are on target.

"Can you show me the A3 teaching manual?"

People often ask those of us in A3 what we specifically teach in our program.

BY ADRIAN DE VISSER

When I look at the challenges facing the church today, I am convinced that the future of leadership does not rest on structures or strategies alone. It rests on the inner life of leaders; their spirituality, their character, and their ability to live in authentic community. This is where A3 has made such a profound difference in my nation.
