Church Plant in the Amazon
December 10th, 2008 by Amanda in MinistryNewLife Industries has recently partnered with Go International of Wilmore, Kentucky, to plant a new church in the Amazon. Larry Cochran, missionary and former President of Go International, will be traveling to the Amazon basin in January to firm up the location of this church.
Formed about 40 years ago, Go International has ministered around the world and this year has planted eleven churches worldwide. The planting process begins with a visit to the area and discussions with a local leader. Go International then accesses four areas of feasibility: longevity, credibility, accountability and fruitability. If the pastor has vision and has shown good character, then discussion is furthered about the project.
Working with Go International, NewLife will provide a new building, pastor training, Bibles, tracts, discipleship materials, follow-up by a national leader and an evaluation every six months of this new church plant in the Amazon. We are excited about this project and will plan to bring you more news about it as the plan develops.
