According to statisctics only about 15% of people in South Africa actaully attend a Bible believing church. This means that as a nation we are in a crisis.
This was what the evangelism training was all about - to see the harvest coming in and people being discipled into strong foundations as they follow Jesus! During the training evangelists and people passionate about evangelism from across our Every Nation churches came together with the aim to raise the local evangelists within the congregations who will lead the church into the community to see the harvest being reached with the Gospel.
As Jesus said in Luke 10, there is not a harvest problem, but a labourer problem. Through the evangelism training we aim to see the church be equipped to go into the harvest field.
We also had the hand-over from Frans Olivier to Themba Malaba who will be leading evangelism for our Every Nation Southern Africa churches. Frans and his family will be relocating to Kenya in 2015 to lead the church plant in Nairobi. Themba is also a passionate evangelist with a heart to see local evangelists identified, equipped and empowered within their local congregations and communities!
