Titus Project 2014

We want to take this time to share about our training program that we are currently leading.  We have spent the last three weeks training up graduates of YWAM's School of Biblical Studies to go out as Bible teachers.  It has been an exciting 3 weeks of lectures as they are preparing to go on outreach.

We are sending out 6 teams!  They are leaving this weekend to teach and preach in nations that are desperate for the word of God. They will be teaching in churches as well as Bible schools.  Many of them will have the opportunity to provide Bible training for pastors that have no other way to receive it.

Here are some shocking  facts that show the need for Bible teaching in our world.  This is why we do what we do.

85% of the 2.2 million evangelical churches worldwide are led by pastors with no training.

90% of Christians will not read through the entire Bible in their lifetime.

It has been projected that 20,000 people become Christians every day in East Asia.  If the average house church gathering can hold 10-20 people, then there is a need for 1000-2000 new pastors every day.

There is a formally trained church leader for ever 230 people in the US.  There is one formally trained church leader for every 450,000 people in the rest of the world.

These statistics are absolutely mind blowing.  The world needs Bible teaching and it is our life mission to not only teach the Bible ourselves, but to train up others to teach and therefore multiply the truth among the nations.

Here are the teams we are sending out this weekend for two months!
a security sensitive country in east Asia
Cambodia
Taiwan/Indonesia (1 month in each)
Phillippines/Taiwan (1 month in each)
Japan
North East India (Nagaland)

I also want to share with you a way that you can be a part of this.  Several of our students are in need of finances before they are able to go on outreach.  Please consider giving to help these teams take truth to the nations.

We want to just highlight one of our students so you can meet them more personally.  This is Tam.  She is Vietnamese and she has a heart to bring Bible teaching to her country.  She came to Taiwan to go to Bible school and we've been blessed to get to know her over the past several months.  If you would like to get to know her more, you can check out her blog http://tamfaithjourney.wordpress.com/.  If you want to partner with any of our students to help them go on outreach, you can donate directly by using our donate button on this page.  They need to leave this weekend so the deadline is Sunday. The overall need of our students is between $6,000 and $7,000.

If you would like to donate and get a tax deductible receipt, please contact us and we will tell you how that is possible.



Please be in prayer for us and for this great need.
