Testimonials
I am the senior pastor of Church of the Lord Prayer Fellowship. Right Because of Alfalit, I can now plan my own lesson to preach. At first I used to add people to read the Bible for me and write the things I will preach on, but I do all by myself now.

"I am no longer a liability to my husband,Alfalit has given me skills. I also don’t pay anyone again to teach my children at home, I do it myself because I can now read and write"

“Alfalit has trained me well. Like before, I did not know anything, but now I have skills.
I can sew and as I am speaking I have finished sewing all my children’s Christmas Clothes, they are lying down.
Right now in front of my house, I have a tailoring machine that I use to sew for people and I have contracts coming to me, from which I am now sustaining my family and helping my husband I give God the glory".
