Mini Cell Church Conference

Saturday we had our very first "conference" at the Regional Training Center. For me this was a great day! I hope to put many people through this "Cell Church" training center in the next ten years. We started with Christina's group which is already a very strong group and is very involved in the ministry. We covered the book 2nd Reformation by Bill Beckham. They were amazed at how different the traditional church is from the church that grew in the homes of believers during the first couple of centuries. We hope to take one group at a time through this training and slowly build a base of church planters through the development of more leaders. Galati is ripe for this type of church. We pray that the Lord will use Christina's group to expand His Kingdom.


This is a very healthy group and are now going through the "Make One Leader" step of the Galati Plan. This is part of our National Bible Reading Campaign that we use to reach out to the lost Orthodox believers.Here the group is in the "Vision Room" trying to see where they live in the city. This will be helpful to us as we begin to spread through out the city.
Of course they had to bring snacks....Oh Lord help me..to restrain from eating all this good food!
