Kelly and Celo Gahaya are Transforming Lives in Rwanda through counselling and training. They have a counselling centre called Lighthouse Counselling and Training Centre where they provide both professional and lay counselling services to both Rwandans and expats living in Rwanda. Additionally, they have a 6 Month Applied Counselling Skills course that they teach to Rwandans and expats.
Their mission is to provide quality professional counselling and training, empowering and equipping individuals, families and organizations. They believe in restoring emotional wellness and renewing and rebuilding relational and personal difficulties in the lives of all their clients and students.
Over these past 8 years, Lighthouse has grown into a centre where they are able to provide counselling services in 5 languages, at very affordable costs to their clients. To date they have trained over 250 Rwandan and expat graduates how to counsel one another. Their course is not only about building skills, but also about personal transformation and healing. To quote a portion of Isaiah 61:1-4, which is the missional scripture that Lighthouse is founded on, Kelly and Celo really believe that Rwandans "will be the ones to rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated, they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations".
Through training Rwandans as counsellors, and having them help one another through emotional pain and personal difficulties, they believe this scripture is fulfilled in their ministry.
