PAOC global workers, Nelson & Lisa, seek to develop holistic discipleship for the transformation of individuals, communities and the nation of Brazil. Nelson also fills the role of Assistant Regional Director for the Latin America & Caribbean region. Here’s how they frame the opportunity and its challenges.
We are thankful for the expansion of our ministry among the socio-economically vulnerable and among millennials and the younger generation.
We were able to facilitate the partnership with ERDO to assist the victims of the record-breaking floods in southern Brazil. More than $30,000.00 was raised to help the victims. Praise God!
We have published several resources in partnership with other organizations to equip young professionals for Kingdom transformation in society in both English and Portuguese.
One of the challenges in this season is to find the right balance between nurturing the expansion and the addition of personnel and structures without demanding excessive energy and resources that may hinder the growth. We are trusting God for wisdom.
PRAY for God given capacity to engage with local churches and pastors as God calls us all to revisit disciple making as the core of the church's mission.
PRAY that the Lord will provide additional financial support for the increased budget as a result of the expansion of our ministry and work throughout the region.
PRAY for our region to be marked by Christians who embrace a profound discipleship that transforms not only individuals, but families, communities and nations.
