Today 50+ pastors from Les Irois, Dame Marie, Tiburon, Chambellan, Baraderes and many other Sister Churches as well as pastors from outside of MEBSH attended a seminar at the Mission Center in Cayes to learn about Awana International’s initiative for Haiti using their new international model. They are starting in southern Haiti with RMI as their key in-country partner. Awana hopes to have 50 clubs by the end of the year.
Pastors are excited to get something like this into their churches as an effective way to disciple and minister to the children in their congregations. Besides hit or miss VBS and traditional Sunday School classes, they’ve had no other tools in their hands for children. Think of what this means to these pastors! And think of what it will mean to hundreds of children!
RMI Prez, Dan Shoemaker, Awana International Executive Director, Brian Rhodes (pictured below) and 3 others are there this week to speak with church leaders as well as facilitate today’s seminar. There are exciting days ahead as this ministry opportunity blossoms!
