RMI is helping to encourage and train up local leaders and pastors.
Every December, the Willow Creek Global Leadership Conference is held in Cayes, Haiti. Many local Haitian leaders, business owners, pastors, missionaries and many others participate. Many RMI Sister Churches sponsored their Haitian Pastors so that they could attend. As a follow up to that, for the past three years, in partnership with MEBSH (The Evangelical Baptist Mission of Southern Haiti) and the IBL (Lumiere Bible Institute) RMI has sponsored a follow up seminars to expound upon what was presented at the original seminar in December.
This year we invited the Sister Church pastors who participated, some of the RMI staff, MEBSH leadership, several pastors in training and a few other staff members from another local ministries to take part in the training sessions. Yesterday and today, these pastors and leaders have been meeting together to watch select portions from the December sessions, and then to discuss and apply them to their own lives and ministry scenarios. Pastor Sean Christensen, from the MEBSH Bible School has been facilitating the sessions.
It’s a great way to encourage, teach and train up local leaders. We’re excited for the opportunity to give many of our local pastors and some of our staff the chance participate in such valuable training!
Pray for these leaders; pray that what they take away from these training can be useful in growing and fortifying their lives and ministries.
