About Raise Up a Worshiper

We catch them young, planting the heart of a worshiper in the next generation before the world plants its own seeds.

Our story

Train them now, not someday

Raise Up a Worshiper is the children and teens arm of East African Gospel Academy. We believe a child has the same capacity to serve God as an adult, and that the church's future is being shaped today.

Children can sense God. Teens can declare His glory. So we train them in music, ground them in the Word and walk with them as mentors, until worship becomes a lifestyle and not just a skill.

Our students lead worship in their schools, churches and communities while they are still young, and grow into the worship leaders of tomorrow.

A message from our leader

“Every child can be a worshiper.”

When I look at the children God brings to Raise Up a Worshiper, I don’t just see little singers and drummers. I see future worship leaders, pastors, teachers and parents who will carry His presence into their generation.

Our heart is simple: to catch them young and plant the love of God and the joy of worship in them before the world plants its own seeds. We teach music, but above all we teach them to know Jesus and to worship Him with their whole lives.

To every parent who trusts us with your child, thank you. Let us walk this journey together, at home, at church and here at Raise Up a Worshiper, so that our children grow up to love God and serve Him with their gifts.
