| How Does Global Friendship Of US and Overseas Pastors Work?
Overseas Pastor: Receives a computer, internet access, and lessons on an internet forum that will equip him to lead himself, his family and his church well. He will be encouraged and mentored through emails from US pastors and churches. In order to receive the computer, internet access and the free materials, the overseas pastor and leaders will be encouraged to minister to orphans in his neighborhood in a variety of ways.
Orphans: Receive ministry from a healthy, encouraged pastoral couple overseas, and a possible trip to Bethlehem Camp in Florida to receive medical care and potential adoption.
US Pastor: Receives free coaching resources hot off the press from major ministries for use in his ministry, and helps fulfill the Great Commission without leaving his present ministry. You will pay just $600/year ($120/year for Pastor’s wives) to provide the computer, internet access and paying a translator overseas.
US Pastors’ Wives and Overseas Pastors’ Wives: An environment of weekly support, encouragement is being created by effective pastors’ wives who understand the needs of women who fulfill many roles including being a pastor’s wife. This forum is a place where interaction exists in an environment of friendship, support, and will encourage your wife in her journey as a woman, pastor’s wife, mom, professional woman, and in her church community.
How Can I As a Pastor Or Businessman Be a Part of PASTOR4PASTOR?
Will you prayerfully consider one of three levels of involvement:
- Become a friend/mentor of an overseas pastor by supplying a computer, internet access, and a translator ($600/year) AND regularly correspond with a pastor.
- Sponsor a Pastor to receive mentoring (similar to child sponsorship) for $600/year. The $600 will pay for a computer, internet access and a translator overseas. We will provide a pastor to encourage/mentor the overseas pastor.
- Sponsor a Pastor to receive mentoring ($600/year) AND correspond monthly as a friend.
We currently have pastors in Bulgaria, Belarus, Russia, Nicaragua, Uganda, Romania, the Ukraine, the Czech Republic and India who are waiting for an encouraging mentor.
God is moving in causing pastors to come together thru PASTOR4PASTOR ministry so that every pastor has the opportunity, no matter the size of his church, to have a worldwide impact through the internet, and at the same time strengthen his present ministry. It is envisioned that pastor’s wives can be as involved with their husbands as we strengthen the bond between pastor wives in a companion activity. Two pastors, separated by thousands of miles, but led together by the Holy Spirit, have the spiritual and physical resources to do whatever they sense God is leading them to do!
Are You Wondering What’s In It For You and Your Ministry?
Many of the most passionate, creative, effective ministries and Christian leaders will provide coaching with excellent resources for the pastors in the US and the pastors overseas in leading themselves, their families and their churches well - free of charge. When a pastor in the US signs up to sponsor or mentor a pastor overseas, both pastors receive these materials through downloads free of charge (thousands of dollars in print value) through the internet forum. You can utilize these resources for your ministry (training leaders in your church, resources for preaching, etc.).
Every person who signs up to sponsor a pastor before September 1 will receive a free book Deception and a teaching DVD by Josh McDowell as an added bonus.
We pray that God will use you to help a pastor overseas receive the resources to help him better understand the Bible, God's work in the world, and the role you have had in fulfilling the Great Commission around the globe without leaving your present ministry.
