Dear Friend of EAPTC,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This gospel is bearing fruit and growing (Col. 1:6)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Over the years, the Evangelical Alliance for
Preacher Training/Commission (EAPTC) has grown to be a non-denominational,
faith-based international organization. Triggered by my missionary commission
to Africa, it was founded by a group of mission-minded church leaders in 1996
to assist indigenous churches in meeting the spiritual and physical needs of
people in their communities. Therefore, EAPTC’s strategy has been to build a working relationship with
the local churches and church leaders in the nations of Africa and beyond. By
empowering indigenous leaders, we believed we could build relationships with
the local churches to create a lasting foundation for sharing the gospel and to
bring a positive social change to manifest God’s kingdom on earth.
EAPTC mission
has been expanding through its unique multiplication methodology of
cross-cultural discipleship. If you have not had a chance to see
the chart of EAPTC-Africa’s multiplicative growth, here it is. This multiplication family tree of EAPTC-Africa was originally drawn out by
Pastor Hamon Kim who visited Africa with us 6 times in the past, and it was later
modified into a handy format. It shows how God has been blessing the work for
years through the biblical multiplication of discipleship and church planting.
On the top of major
axes of leadership training, church planting, and children ministry, EAPTC presently
operates additional ministries like film evangelism, nursery schools,
literature production, microfinance banking projects, radio broadcasts and
orphanage in some countries where it works.
Nursery
school in Lilongwe, Malawi is gaining the confidence of the community with its
low-cost quality education for local children. They had a Parents Day on June
29 and witnessed many parents’ appreciation regarding their work with over 30
children. Thanks to your prayers that an exciting addition of sharpened gospel
workers has been made to God’s army on August 5 through Lilongwe Bible school
graduation. Our congratulations and best wishes to those graduates and
lecturers who worked hard to make that day possible! We had another joyous
occasion of pastoral ordination in Funyula, Kenya on
August 18. Revs. Cletus Tukai and Nicholas Alalia presided over this event. We
thank God for the continuous move of the Holy Spirit in Africa through our faithful
indigenous leaders who are making Africa a better place even this day.
I’ll be in the Washington DC area from September 29 to October 11 to meet and to minister to a number of ministry friends and supporting churches. If you’re in the area, I look forward to seeing you there.
If you’re still not connected with us through Social Networking Service (SNS), kindly do so. We’re trying to update missions news to our friends and supporters through SNS as well. That way, you’d not miss any of the important missions updates as we keep standing together for the souls of Africa and beyond!
Yours joyfully in His service,
Paul Lee (& Eunice Jaeun)
