Every Child Ministries in Congo
Every Child Ministries never left. Nationals have been carrying on the work. This week Every Child went into the nation for the first time to train nationals to reach children with the Gospel.
ECM's John Rouster says they're holding a national Sunday School teacher training seminar. "We're brining in our leaders from the central part of the country into Kinshasa for a Christian education conference. ECM has over 2,000 Sunday Schools that have been started through this seminar method and only God knows how many children have been reached through these."
According to Rouster, ECM has developed materials to help. "Every Child Ministries has developed a teacher training manual that's been translated into six or seven languages. When a seminary is taught each participant gets a teacher training manual because a lot of the people aren't grounded in Biblical principles."
ECM works with the national church. Rouster says they've seen incredible results. "There has been some circumstances where there were no churches in the village and another church helped get a teacher in there and then eventually churches were founded because of the Sunday Schools."
Funding is needed to help provide the materials. They also need people to help with the program. Click here to get additional information.
