Crossing Borders: GET CONNECTED

Crossing Borders is about believers pushing past their comfort zones and immersing themselves in the lives of fellow believes across the nation and globe.  It is our belief that God has called all believers everywhere to be a part of evangelism throughout their communities, states, nations and the world at large.?

One of the ways we do this is through the promotion of the Dollar a Day program, designed to help families and individuals understand who the missionaries are in the Brethren Church, where they minister, and most importantly help develop relationships with brothers and sisters around the globe. 

Each month we emphasize a different mission field both in U.S. and the International field so be sure to check back often to see who is featured.

Mission Highlight: Argentina

     Our featured Mission Point this month is Argentina and boy is God really moving there.  Already there are well over 30 plus churches being served by the Brethren with more people being called into full time ministry every day.  Even better is the fact that more and more often these men and women are leaving the safety of home and hearth and venturing into new areas and fields.  For instance one of the churches is almost predominantly Japanese.  The worship is sung in Japanese, Spanish (Argentinean style) and even some English. 

     Even more amazing is the missionary mindset of these people.  The works in Paraguay, Colombia and Chile’ were all started by an out pouring from our brothers and sisters in Argentina.  In recent years they have expanded their sights and begun a new church in Spain that is really taking root. 

     Add to that a seminary called South American Theological Seminary (STS) that trains men and women from all walks of life to become ministers of Gods word in their secular jobs as well as those engaging in full time service.

     Isn't amazing to know that we have family all over the world that we're "connected" to through the saving grace of Jesus Christ!
