Fiji Eating
Fiji Dr.D’s Sights
The first thing that comes to mind when one mentions Fiji is palm trees, ocean and a plush exclusive vacation spot. But, is that all there is to this tropical island wonder or is there more. The Assembly of God has over 300 churches with an adherence of approx. 50,000 people on the archipelago. The hunger for God’s Word is GREAT and the need for training is EVEN greater.
One of two choices face us:
1) send material and say that we have given enough.
2) train those leaders in the country, who desperately need to be trained.
Many leaders from different churches came together to learn how to be more effective in training leaders to share Christ. If you change a child, you change a community, if you change a community, you change a city, if you change a city you will change a country/continent – if you change a country/continent then you will change the world.
Do we really believe or want to be world changers? Yes, the beauty in the islands of Fiji is worth making the trip but the opportunity to train and place indigenous materials in the hands of the leaders so that they can take ownership of the communities that God has placed them is worth our investing our lives in.
One day I will go back for the vacation but now the commitment lies with equipping the equippers! Dr.D
Fiji Dr. D Teaching
Dr. Larry Dotson (Dr. D) taught during the Workshops on the importance of ‘A Child’s Development in Learning’. He was surprised to see one of his former students from the Bible School in the Philippines attending one of the workshops in Fiji. He left the Philippines in 1995 as the Missionary to the Children of the Philippines.
Fiji Anand Assembly
I was invited to preach at Pastor Paul Abraham’s church, Anand Assembly. The church last year started four Kid’s Life Clubs after receiving the Life Publisher’s Principles4Life Bible Studies.
