DISCIPLING THEM ONE AT A TIME

A World Vision poster has caught the people'seye. It pictures a starving child and a question in boldletters: "How do you feed a billion hungry people?" Theanswer below: "One at a time."

That might also express Harvest's attitude towarddiscipling. How do you disciple 50,000 people by theyear 2000? The answer? One at a time.

This ministry continues in Kenya under theleadership of Philip Makau. Confined no longer toKenya, however, it has been implemented in Zimbabweand is being considered in Ivory Coast and even inJapan. Disciplers in Zimbabwe wrote that it is bringingrevival to their congregation. In Japan, the materials arebeing translated for the first time. In Kenya, certificateshave been added - but they are given out only when thediscipled has discipled another person successfully.

Continue to keep this ministry in your prayers.
