Training in Africa
This week Michelle and I trained fifty African leaders in Pretoria, South Africa. They came from South Africa, Congo, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Namibia, Benin, Mozambique, and Ghana. The guys from Malawi traveled 2,000kms over three days and nights.
Eddie Mogapodi is in and out of the prisons in Bloemfontein, South Africa making disciples. He visits prisoners, and their families sharing the gospel and helping as best he can. He’s there at the gate when they are released. Eddie told us, “Now I’ve got simple, Biblical tools to multiply disciples and churches.”
The 4-Fields training equips these Africans to:
Enter an unreached community and connect with people.
Share the gospel.
Make disciples who learn how to follow Jesus.
Gather those disciples into new churches that reproduce.
Multiply workers who do the same.
We’re partnering with George Funk, a South African who leads the Gospel Chariot Ministries across over twenty African Nations. We’re training his evangelists to move beyond evangelism to multiplying disciples and churches. And they are ready.
This week we trained in Pretoria. Next week a team of trainees will help us train 100 workers in Uganda.
These Africa leaders have the zeal, they have the connections, they have language and culture, they’re insiders. We add some simple, Biblical tools to release them to multiply. This is fun!
Thanks to everyone who was able to give towards the trip. We reached our total!
Please pray for safe travel to and from Uganda and for good health. Pray for the African workers, that they will catch the vision.
