What’s happening in 2021? A lot! We will continue developing partnerships with churches in Michigan and the Midwest. In July – as the Lord wills – we will train pastors over 200 church leaders in two cities in Haiti. We are working on all the details of those conferences! Interested in serving with us at a pastors training conference? Review the dates below then CLICK HERE.
Feb 24 – March 20 – Building PPI
Ken and Rena will be away from First Baptist in Bad Axe from Feb 24-March 20 to focus full-time on building PPI – literally! Over these three weeks, we will build out the PPI office/workroom in a room in our house. We’ll keep you updated on progress! We also will present PPI at two area churches.
July 2021 – Pastors Training in Ouanaminthe AND Cap Haitien, Haiti (Team fee based on 1 or 2 weeks)
Lord willing, we will offer TWO training conferences in July for more than 200 Haitian church leaders using the Thompson Chain Reference Bible. We will lead Course 2 – Our Powerful Gospel in Cap Haitien and Course 1 – The Message and the Messenger in Ouanaminthe. We also may have an opportunity to train church leaders in the Dominican Republic this summer. Please pray for and support these training opportunities!
[When COVID-19 restrictions allow] – PPI Open House (Great Lakes Bay Region)
Find out what Partnership of Pastors International is all about at this informative gathering. Learn more about the need for training indigenous church leaders and check out the materials we use. Stay tuned for new date!
Throughout 2021 – Developing Church Partnerships
We will focus on developing church partnerships throughout this year. Ken’s work as interim pastor at First Baptist Church likely will conclude in April, then we will focus full-time on presenting PPI to churches in Michigan and the Midwest. Do you know of churches that may be interested in training and resourcing indigenous pastors? Let us know HERE.
Our desire is for PPI to be fully funded no later than September 2022, enabling us to lead the ministry full-time.
Feb 25-March 5, 2022 – Pastors Training in Gonaives, Haiti (Team fee – $1700)
We made the painful decision to postpone our training conference in Feb 2021 in Gonaives because of the new CDC international travel guidelines. Read more HERE. As the Lord enables us, we will go to this new city in Feb 2022. Hear a Haitian pastor talk about our training.
