Missions
“Go ye therefore and teach all nations…” Matthew 28:19
God has called US to bring His message to the world. Through our involvement with Foreign Missions, we have developed personal relationships with missionaries in Brazil, Haiti and Honduras. These contacts have given us a true understanding of the needs and challenges one faces on the mission field in third world countries. Poverty, disease, water pollution, voudoo and a lack of government structure are some of the tests facing missionaries and those they serve …however, the battle is not ours but the Lord’s. So, with faith in God and hope in their hearts, our missionaries continue in their calling.
The Barber family has been reaching the lost in Betim, Minas Gerais, Brazil for many years. Their ministry of starting churches and training leaders has carried them for miles over that vast country under difficult travel conditions. Their son, Daniel, of “Souls for Christ” has followed the example of his parents. He continues the work with adults as well as building schools an orphanages.
We find more dedicated missionaries in Haiti, the country many of us at A.P.A. are familiar with having spent weeks or months there as “short term missionaries”. Two of these missions so well known to us are Living Hope Ministries in Mariani and Project Nourish on the Leogane Plain. With the devastating earthquake on January 12, 2010 has come an atmosphere of extreme devastation and the need to really trust God! The work continues as our missionaries provide physical and spiritual help for the Haitian people.
Escuela Vida Abundante in Cholutela, Honduras and the affiliated church are growing in leaps and bounds! Two single American ladies, with their commitment and loving care, are responsible for the teaching, preaching and feeding off these needy souls.
It is exciting to be a part of God’s plan of reaching out to the world! If you would like information or to be involved with our missionary work, please contact the APA Missions Team!
