Pastor's Training - 2024 Mission Trip
Summer 2024 Pastoral Training with Hartford Texas Nazarene during Mission Trip
The mission team of A.R.M. this summer of 2024 was from Hartford visited Gambella, Ethiopia with the goal of Pastoral Training its Ministers. We truly thank God for opening this great door and these opportunities for many pastors to attend this amazing training. The training was eye-opening for many pastors who never had such a training experience before.
In attendance were 300 pastors from 24 denominations in Gambella Region who attended the training. It brought unity, peace and love amongst the various church's leaders. During our training in the second week of July, we provided these amazing pastors with delicious meals, neckties, and handed out certificates after their completion of the class.
For many years our team in the U.S. has been training pastors and equipping them for the church’s mission in both South Sudan and Ethiopia. The trainer this year is Rev. Ted Tailor who is well-qualified in his role as a Theologian. He was admired by all the pastors who attended the biblical training. Many pastors had never experienced this kind of training before, and we divided them into 7 groups and there was a vote from them to continue coming back with this style of Biblical training!
Pastor John, from the Presbyterian church suggested that, these trainings should continue throughout the year without a pause. He said that the Spirit of the Lord was to continue shining in South Sudan and Ethiopia and for these Mission Teams to keep coming back to Africa and provide more training to our dear pastor friends.
The theme of our pastoral training was, "How to Walk Through the Bible", where Pastor Ted prepared a rigorous and spirit-filled curriculum to train and prepare new and current pastors on how to Learn the Bible all the way through from Genesis to Revelation. It was an incredible training ~ one that will be remembered through Gambella, Ethiopia region since many pastors acknowledged it is one of the one best trainings that they've ever had before! We're so grateful for his team!
Our mission helped equip the region's community leaders and prepare them as Ambassadors of Christ in their churches and their communities. We give special thanks to Hartford First Church of the Nazarene under the leadership of Rev. Ted for sponsoring this special pastoral training.
We are asking for your daily prayer for the South Sudanese pastors living in Ethiopia and a one-time gift in the form of a monthly financial offering is highly appreciated! May God truly bless you and enrich your life for reading our ministry's updates and supporting us.
