Organisation
Pastor Amir Upper Egypt)
Objective
There are thousands of small villages in Upper Egypt, where only a
few Christians remain. Churches are
closed because there are insufficient pastors, who want to live in these remote
places and shepherd a church community.
Therefore, it is difficult for Christians to grow and feel connected to
a Christian community. Many church
buildings are deserted and Christians find it difficult to survive in this part
of the world. The objective of this project is to revive the Christian
communities and open the churches to different ministries for children, youth,
women, etc.
Approach
Pastor Amer wants to reach 80.000 people in 5 villages/towns in
Upper Egypt and open the church buildings in the coming 5 years. He is forming a team to organize out-reaches
and set-up children’s clubs, women’s ministries and weekly church services to
encourage the Christians in these remote places. Pastors will be equipped to teach and
minister to the people. For the coming 5
years an investment will be necessary to provide the
pastors with training, a contribution to their salary and tools/equipment for
the different ministries.
