Course 1 reflections; part 7 of 8 from our students.
Missionaries have been coming to Vanuatu since 1839 (Williams & Harris were eaten), but sadly a “pure Gospel” can barely be found in the country. The country is rooted in animism (spirit worship, etc) and is riddled with syncretism; mixing ancestral worship, a false Jesus (whether thru the occults, prosperity propaganda (which is pushed heavily in “town”), or just a lack of information). This is why we put such an emphasis on the course teaching and to train the Tiale evangelists.
*Please pray for the Tiale evangelists, in less than a month they will be going to a sister language, and to a village that has never heard a “pure Gospel” yet. This will be the first fully-indigenous run outreach to present the course teaching. We are praying for this model to be replicated all over Vanuatu. Please pray with us!
*Please pray for the students as they are now back in their respective villages and have to stay faithful to what they learned.
*Please pray for the 3 pastors-in-training as we see them teach course 1 in various settings in Vanuatu.
*Please pray the pastors and leaders of the Tiale church(es), as they desire to emulate the Christ-like model to their people.
Thank you for your prayers and partnership in this process!
