Church Partnerships

A word of encouragement:

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God." 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Whatever place you find yourself in–discouraged, disappointed, hurt, apathetic–we serve a God who is faithful and good and sovereign. He is in control of all things and He loves you! We pray you can encounter His peace and find hope.

Global Disciples serves to connect and facilitate cooperation within the global Body of Christ among clusters of churches that are engaged in discipleship, mission, and leadership training ministries and share our commitment to:

• Glorify God, the Creator and eternal Lord of the universe.
• Exalt the only Savior and risen Lord Jesus Christ, God’s Son.
• Rely on the Holy Spirit to teach, convict, comfort and empower.
• Accept the Bible as the divinely inspired, authoritative Word of God.
• Demonstrate love for those in the church, the Body of Christ.
• Show love for those without Christ through lives of compassionate service, righteous living, and evangelism.
• Celebrate the sanctity of human life from conception to death, understanding we are created male and female, in the image of God.
• Live in sexual purity, whether single or in a marriage covenant between a man and a woman.
• Pray and work diligently to see the Gospel spread to all peoples in anticipation of the glorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

For the month of March, we are praying for India and Sri Lanka.

Today, we focus our prayers for the leaders serving in these regions. They serve 75 groups of churches and 192 active training programs. Last year, 1,057 trained disciple-makers planted 546 new churches, with 3,446 new worshippers and disciples of Jesus. We praise God for this amazing fruit produced in very hard soil. And we continue to lift up those He`s using to bring his Gospel to the least-reached.

Thank you for your investment in prayer!

Global Disciples makes it possible for the local Body of Christ in 74 nations to reach their nations. We currently have 3,475 training programs, 1,997 in Africa, 1,258 in Asia, and 220 in Latin America. Our model has proven flexible and adaptable in areas where visible Gospel activity is restricted or opposed.

We praise God for the growth we`ve had over the years and are excited to see more of His hand at work through Global Disciples around the world!

Global Disciples partners with men like Pastor Kabir, in south-central India, an extraordinary pastor and leader who has faced many challenges.

"We have a vision to plant 10 thousand churches in our region. But I had a problem. A problem with how to strengthen the church leaders. But with the help from Global Disciples, we were able to offer leadership training. We have used this and it has helped us so much. I don’t have any words to express my thanks for the way these trainings have helped us.”

As Global Disciples, we’re privileged to be used by God to meet the needs by providing training in discipleship-mission, leadership, and small business development, to indigenous churches in more than 65 countries.

Pastor Kabir expressed our shared vision when he said, “I want to see church multiplication, and believe that the secret is to empower and equip all believers to be evangelists and disciple-makers.”

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38-39

Your contributions support and equip workers like Kendi*.

In a war-torn region of West Africa, Kendi trained 15 disciple-makers to share their faith in a large refugee camp. These disciple-makers combined compassionate evangelism with meeting the physical needs of refugees, bringing hope to those in desperate situations. In just two months and despite opposition in this challenging environment, 66 Muslims came to faith in Jesus. 64 were baptized and two churches were planted within the camp!

Kendi’s efforts highlight the vital role that near-culture Christians have in sharing the love of Christ where it’s most needed. As you pray for and support workers like him and his training program, you share in his work as a partner, bringing the hope of Jesus to West Africa and many hard places in our world.

Thank you for supporting and praying for near-culture disciples of Jesus!

If you want near-culture workers, you need local churches. We are grateful for the generations of cross-cultural workers and the traditional mission-sending strategies. Thanks to their dedication and sacrificial lives, the global Body of Christ is mature and thriving in many places. Now it’s time for the next step: tapping into these local churches to train and send out their people as a new generation of mission workers.

As Global Disciples, we partner with local churches to equip and send out their people as disciple-makers and church planters who are able to use small business for sustainability, and develop leaders for the multiplying church.

Join us as we focus our prayers on the least-reached in North and Central (NC) India and Sri Lanka for the month of March.

In North Central India alone, over 750 million unreached people and more than 1,000 people groups are considered least-reached. So few of these know the love of Christ–a mere 0.2% follow the Christian faith. Sri Lanka, the island nation off the coast of Southern India, has had more exposure to Christianity, but still nearly half of its people groups are considered least-reached. What a massive mission opportunity!

Thank you for being a part of their support network. Your prayers are so needed in this area of the world that desperately longs to know the love of Christ.
