Let's Talk About Pastoral Ministry and Family Life!
We empower you to make the most of your family life and pastoral ministry through biblical teaching.
1 Timothy 3:4-5 (NIV)
He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect. (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God’s church?)

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the counselors at The Ephesians Family for the time, wisdom, and care they shared with us during our pre-marital counseling sessions. Their guidance helped us explore important topics, strengthen our communication, and deepen our understanding of one another in ways we hadn’t imagined.
With appreciation,
Paul & Mahepela
We want to sincerely thank the Ephesians Family for the generous gift of the free marriage resources that were provided to us. Your commitment to supporting couples like us is truly inspiring, and we are so grateful for the time, thought, and care that went into creating and sharing these materials.
With heartfelt appreciation,

Find out what your Family Life and Pastoral Ministry could be missing by being a member of the Ephesians Family.
Our free theological training program takes 18 months to 2 years to complete. It involves interactive classroom lectures and discussions. It’s designed to equip pastors and church leaders with biblical knowledge and skills, with the requirement of only being able to read and write in either English or Portuguese.
Our pre-marital counseling lasts for about 6 months for the normal one and 3 months for the intensive one. It is required that you inform us six months before your wedding date so that we can be able to conduct the counseling. The post-marital counseling is a continuous program that is set differently based on our specific members or clients.
As much as we would love to help everybody, our financial support for students is, for now, limited to grades 1 -12. We support students with the fees needed for school and other school materials. We also provide counseling sessions for students to help them succeed. This service is, for now, limited to the country of Mozambique.
To partner with us, you can either become a member or, if you are not ready to be a member but you like our ministry and would like to support us, you can make a donation towards our ministry and we guarantee you that your funds will be accounted for and used to reach out to as many families as possible and to pastors as well.
