We start church planting movements to transform unreached people groups--where obedient disciples make obedient disciples and reproducing churches start reproducing churches--who make Jesus known while transforming lives, relationships and communities.
Our vision is to raise up church planting movements into every tribe, people, city, and language.
Our main efforts are to start movements which transform whole communities. We have over 80 teams which focus in difficult areas of the world to accomplish this mission. At least 34,900 churches were started this last year plus about 6,000 other groups moving toward becoming churches. These results have taken place in many parts of Asia and North Africa and the Middle East. These congregations help feed the poor, help those who are less fortunate and generally work to improve economies, moral life and spiritual life. We estimate that over 500,000 people heard the Gospel through the combined efforts of our people and the people they trained. Possibly over 11,000 people this year made a commitment to serve Jesus Christ and their community.
Over 120 personnel have trained over 8,000 people this year. The training, teaching, modeling/coaching and materials in ways to transform communities are provided for formal and informal as well as private and institutional training. Overseeing trainings of those networks and provisions of materials are a vital aspect of our workers' ministries. Formal training in strategy teams and church planting resulted in at least 1,000 being trained, both from within our organization and also our workers' networks. Workers who are related to educational institutions, or institutions that need educators to train their workers and constituency, play an important role within the organization. Our combined services including providing workshops; marriage enrichment retreats; training for relief, development and medical services; coaching training and follow-up sessions; Bible institutes/universities/seminaries; equipping for networks and agencies.
Continuing development efforts were also carried out in 16 countries. Over 20,000 people were impacted and served. These efforts included support for teams doing livelihood training, agricultural training, and literacy training. In some key areas, rehabilitative services included help to people (and their families) suffering physical disabilities, or affected by leprosy or HIV/AIDS. In addition, medical consultations and equipping plus childbirth and CPR/First AID training has been provided to numerous people.
