Franklin Samuels

I am passionate about reaching those yet to give their lives to the Lord Jesus. Upon graduation from the university in 1990, and after the compulsory national youth service, I joined the Christian Missionary Foundation (Nigeria) the following year- 1992.

I was posted to a mission field following the mandatory rigorous missions training I received from the group's missions school. I served in the field for a while and was later posted to a zonal office as coordinator (CMF North Central Zone). After a few years (by December 1999, I was moved to the national headquarters and appointed the Assistant General Secretary and given the specific assignment of putting order to the growing work. I had known I am an administrator, but the experience confirmed it. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

My only regret was that I barely started with the first of the three areas I had identified as needing strategic intervention (the office system, the human resource especially in the field, and staff support), before the Lord decided it was time for another phase of ministry. 

The story is long. But the point is that from that point I been involved in personal evangelistic ministry often working in church settings without pay. 

I have skills in administration, Bible teaching, evangelism and communication. Specifically, my burning desire is for believers to give practical attention to the word, obey it in their day to day life as well as to win souls for the Lord.
