Center of Praise Global (COP Global)

Center of Praise Global (COP Global) serves as the outreach arm of Center of Praise Church, under the senior leadership of Bishop Parnell Lovelace, Jr., PhD, and the spiritual covering of the church. COP Global is led by Elders Samuel and Bunmi Brown-Dawson, who are assigned to steward the church’s global missions and outreach initiatives. As an extension of Center of Praise’s vision—Redemption, Justice, and Empowerment for All People—Global Care exists to advance the work of the Kingdom through Christ-centered partnerships, discipleship, and community engagement.

Through COP Global, we cultivate partnerships with ministries serving in diverse nations and communities across the world. Our outreach has extended through South Africa, Haiti, and Ethiopia, and continues today through ongoing ministry in Sierra Leone (West Africa), Haiti, and Uganda. Wherever we serve, our approach remains the same—walking alongside local leaders through prayer, pastoral encouragement, financial partnership, and hands-on mission teams to strengthen churches, equip leaders, and uplift families through the power of the Gospel.

 Gomba Schools in Uganda

In Uganda, COP Global is honored to partner with Pastor Steven Trint, Director of Toggo Schools, whose life has been devoted to answering God’s call to educate and disciple children in underserved communities. What began in the Nakaseke District as an act of obedience has grown into a network of schools and ministry programs serving hundreds of students and families. Over the past fifteen years, Pastor Trint has led the establishment of primary, secondary, and vocational schools—ensuring that children are not only educated, but empowered and discipled.

In 2022, COP Global conducted its first mission trip to Gomba, Mityana District, where we met students learning in makeshift classrooms with limited resources—but filled with faith and determination. The conditions were fragile, but the hope was undeniable. Since then, our partnership has deepened, and Toggo Schools continues expanding its vision through permanent classrooms, leadership training, and sustainable community initiatives.

Today, Toggo Schools has:

• Facilitated over 40 mission outreaches
• Hosted conferences in Gospel ministry, leadership development, and social empowerment
• Led sustainable development initiatives for families and local communities
