Discipling God's People from Vision to Involvement
Sending Out the Good News from Brazil
The Lord has given us all another opportunity to release missionaries to the ends of the earth.
A year and a half ago, during the Winter Anglican Mission In America (AMIA) Conference, we were asked by one of the Reformed Anglican Church bishops in Brazil to come and teach at seminar in Sao Paulo.The Reformed Anglican Church has been in Brazil for 20 years but only recently have they incorporated a mission training school to identify, train and commission missionaries and evangelists for work in the Amazon River Basin.The initial goal is to establish 20 parishes and 20 mission congregations by 2020.
Bishop Josep also looked at the International Missions Training that we have used in Haiti and Uganda.He was delighted with it .He asked if they could translate it into Portuguese. This opportunity will: ·Impact an entire denomination by incorporating a solid mission curriculum into the training of their pastors and missionaries. ·Facilitate examining in-depth the discipleship programs used and how that might apply to the work in Haiti, Uganda and other parts of Brazil. ·Help develop relationships and strategies to provide Portuguese materials to other ministries with a vision for reaching the 40,000 villages of the Amazon Basin. After prayer, we have set aside two weeks in November to go to Brazil.Please ask the Lord how you can join GCWM in training missionaries from Brazil to the ends of the earth by giving to the Brazil Mission Training Trip.
