After we attended the Ignite missions conference last year in May, we shared what we had learned about mobilizing the church in Africa for global missions with our local church. In response, our church asked us to help facilitate a six month discipleship class -- because if we want to mobilize the people of Pader for global missions, then the starting point is a solid church foundation built on discipled believers. Only disciples can make more disciples!
It was a real privilege for all of us (Mike, Marianne, Walter, Concy, and Ceasar) to help lead this group, and we feel that God really used this class in the lives of the members. Please pray for this group of 21 as they go out, that God will bless them as they put into practice what they have learned. It is not knowledge God is looking for - it is changed hearts that He will use to change others!
