The co-ordinator for the training in the UK is Keith Berry. He introduces himself as follows:

For nearly 20 years now I’ve been involved as a pastor in churches in the UK. Increasingly over this time I observed the need for church leaders to be involved in disciple making and leadership training. As I sought to improve my own skills in these fields, I was fortunate to be exposed to Veritas College. I witnessed both the simplicity and effectiveness of Veritas training in my last church (Hightown Baptist Church, Luton). My passion now is to get alongside church leaders and encourage them to train others, resulting in Biblical leadership, spiritual growth and equipping participants for God’s service through the use of Veritas training materials in London and beyond.

I would be delighted to meet you to discuss how Veritas may help your church or hold a presentation should you wish to involve your team.
Please get in touch.

"I would definitely recommend the Veritas modules to anyone. I have completed 1 and 2 and it gives you valuable tools to understand and interpret the Bible. Module 2 has unlocked the Old Testament for me, and where I previously just skimmed some of the more popular books, I now read, understand and enjoy studying the OT!"
Ilse - Participant

"Originally I signed up for Veritas because I realised that there are some passages in the Bible that I do not understand. I have now completed Veritas Modules 1 & 2. What I appreciate about this course is that it does not try to give me somebody else’s interpretation of what a specific passage in the Bible means; it teaches me a way in which to find the meaning for myself. Since starting Veritas, I have a new hunger inside me to spend more time reading the Bible, especially the Old Testament and I will definitely sign up for Veritas Modules 3 & 4."
Tyna Coffee - Participant

"I attended a Veritas course with strong reservations about approaching biblical text less devotionally and more analytically.By the end of module one I had come to appreciate the importance of language and context. Rather than losing the preciousness of Scripture I had gained a better understanding of some well-loved passages.Today I find that the Veritas method has become an integral part of my Bible reading."
Rowena - Participant

"The Lord has blessed us with a wonderfully exciting ministry."

The Veritas training has been running in London since 1996. Originally it was Bennie and Moira Wolvaardt who introduced the training to the church. Hundreds of people have gone through the training since then, and currently it is managed by Nick Joubert with the help of a number of facilitators and the church staff.

The congregation consists of mainly young Afrikaans-speaking South Africans who flock to London for the opportunity to work and travel. The training has been adapted to cater for the fact that members usually only stay in the UK for an average of 2 years.

On completion of all four modules!

At the moment three modules are run simultaneously three times per year. Our goal is to run all four modules simultaneously three times per year.

The training runs on Saturdays from 10:00 until 17:30 with an hour break for lunch.

Facilitators from the South African Congregation in London started the training at Reigate some 6 months ago.
