Opportunity to train Turkic Church leaders

***UPDATE***

Wow! Everyone's generosity has been astounding!!! Due to the offline donations of several individuals and churches, we have met our initial goal of $3000. If you've contributed to this fundraiser, we at Al-Maidah are grateful for your support.

I recently became aware of the need to raise funds for our translation team. They are involved with the Afghan refugees in their country but are facing the challenges of poverty and political & spiritual oppression for being disciples of Jesus Christ (Yeshua the Messiah). Their involvement in this training opportunity is crucial to its success... Please consider giving to this very important aspect of the ministry we are seeking to undertake in equipping Central Asian pastors to reach their Muslim neighbors for our Lord!

***ORIGINAL POST***

Hey everyone! I’ve been presented with an opportunity to help train Turkic Church leaders in Central Asia on behalf of The Al-Maidah Initiative (www.al-maidah.org). AMI provides in-depth training to Christians all over the world that provides insight into how Islam shapes the worldview, culture, & government of Muslims. We also teach them how to befriend their Muslim neighbors and equip them with strategies to lead them to the salvation that is only found in Yeshua (Jesus the Messiah). 

Due to the danger of exposing these leaders to their hostile governments, I can’t give too many specifics regarding the location of this training or which parties would be involved. I can say that these leaders would be receiving valuable insight as to how to reach the primarily Muslim nations they serve the Lord in! 

I’d like to raise 5500.00 for travel expenses for our team (comprised of another US-based teammate & our translators based abroad). That would include airfare, lodging, and any other ground costs. If you would like more information, I’d be glad to answer any questions as best as I can via direct message.
