GHANA AND WEST AFRICA 4 FIELDS DISCIPLESHIP MULTIPLICATION TEAMS

Amen, Charles Odoi has reported the following

GHANAIAN LEADERS IN THE STATES

This group is named, Ambassadors of Christ. As usual, the Sunday afternoon Training for this group via Zoom took place, hosted by Elder Douglas Boateng. I couldn’t join because I was on the road to Freetown.

Solomon has sent this report:

The training with the Ambassadors of Christ ( USA )

came on as scheduled.

Three tools were presented.

1) SEARCH FOR THE PERSON OF PEACE

by Elder Douglas Boateng.

2) My Story / 15 Seconds Testimony - by Solomon Mireku

3) Jesus' Story in 3 Circles.

by Isaac Boamah

After these wonderful presentations by the three trainers, some of the 14 participants who joined showed their excitement about the tools, while others ( Freeman and Asiedu ) raised issues about how to implement the tools.

Saying that the divisions in the churches over there makes it difficult to do any effective evangelism.

They however appealed to Elder Douglas to use his influence to intervene in resolving the problems.

Brother Boamah said they have been able to resolve theirs.

In his response of acceptance Elder Douglass told them to pray about it as he also thinks about what he can do.

This discussion took about 20 minutes.

The training will continue Lord willing next week.

TRAINER OF TRAINERS MEETING

Also via Zoom, the Monday evening Training to Practice the 3/3s Method and to Mentor new Trainers and inspire Participants to action, happened with 3 additional members.

Brother Albert Ablorh is the preacher for the Chapel Hill congregation that hosted the Cape Coast Training recently. Brother Jacob Sesay is the lead Trainer in Sierra Leone, and Brother Peter Ofori Amponsah is the Trainer in Mali. All 3 of them were part of the African Conference in December, 2021. It’s amazing that Conference is still giving us several positive opportunities.

There were 19 participants from 9 countries in attendance. There were a few others who sent apologies for their inability to join. We therefore prayed for the Travellers - Isaac Boamah, Prince Ntow, Lawrence Lamptey; and the Sick - George Akpabli.

After the Gather, Grow and Go, we took turns to polish things up for the Presenters on how to do it better next time. We were also admonished by Elder Douglas to ensure that our congregations catch the fire of the 4 Fields Discipleship. This is because while we take the newly baptized through the 4-1-1 and they catch the fire , bringing their family and friends, they’ll be discouraged and stop, when they realize the old members of the congregation are not doing same.

This went down very well with all the participants. I had earlier spoken in that line to polish the Presenter of the 4-1-1 for the evening, and Brother Godson of Gambia also added his voice to that.

We all set our goals for the week to strengthen the ‘I Will Statement’ we had given earlier.

BAPTISMS IN MALI

Brother Peter Ofori Amponsah has been involved with Evangelism in the Bamako area, using the Jesus’ Story in 3 Circles. He just reported 2 more Baptisms this week.
