Equipping church leaders to run their race well
Share
Elim Missions is working hard to help churches in Pakistan through the ‘Be Equipped’ campaign, Jack Skett reports.
Elim Missions is committed to equipping leaders across the world to run their race well.
One of our four key campaigns is ‘Be Equipped’, which aims to provide training and resources to leaders around the world to fulfil God’s call on their lives in their contexts.
Through the Be Equipped campaign, we partnered with Dr Keith Warrington to bring his Word and Spirit resources to our partners in the nations.
Keith has travelled and taught in a variety of nations, and his resources have continued to equip leaders ever since.
One example is a church in Pakistan which has been using Word and Spirit material since the formation of their ministry in early 2021 (we cannot name the church or its leaders for security reasons).
The leaders of the ministry were introduced to Dr Keith Warrington by Pastor Nigel James from New Life Elim Church in Barry, and both Keith and Nigel taught by Zoom during the inaugural Word and Spirit School.
After the graduation of 20-plus students from the initial two-year diploma course, the church has expanded the Word and Spirit Bible School programme and now has four distinct courses running – one for youth based at a local Christian school, one in the church building, one at a women’s training centre, and now a new course on the other side of their city.
THIS ISN'T THE END OF THE STORY!
