In 2011 those who partnered with Global Advance through prayers and financial support helped God’s Kingdom advance throughout the world! Here are just a few things God did through Global Advance….

Africa

• In northern Nigeria where churches have been burned, pastors and leaders were encouraged to continue and received much needed ministry training.

•  In Niger where there are less than 400 churches in the entire nation, over 200 pastors and their wives were encouraged and equipped.

•  Throughout West Africa young entrepreneurs received business training and Biblical worldview for business
•  In Ethiopia frontline shepherds were convened and commissioned to advance the Gospel and Global Advance helped support the completion of a training center for Muslim Background Believers.
•  Global Advance continues to support pastor training in East Africa pointing new leaders to reach Somalia with the Gospel.

 Latin America

• In Venezuela over 2000 frontline shepherds and leaders came together in one of the broadest gatherings of denominations.  Each leader was touched and challenged to reach Venezuela for Christ
•  Marketplace Leaders of Peru, Colombia, Nicaragua and Dominican Republic were equipped to battle poverty and extend God’s Kingdom through business
•  Thousands of young leaders throughout Colombia and Venezuela were convened and challenged to be a catalyst for God’s purposes.  Many responded to go to other nations with the Gospel.
•  In Cuba hundreds of pastors and laypeople were equipped with ongoing discipleship training.

 Asia

• In China house church network leaders have been trained in scriptural literacy, missions, evangelism and discipleship.  Also Global Advance is actively engaged in equipping marketplace leaders throughout China to be salt and light through business excellence.

Thank you and God bless!
