Shalom Teaching Ministry - January 2020 Update

His name is Andrés. He is a very spiritual pastor with a powerful gift to preach and a very compassionate heart. He has not had the means to go to seminary or to study theology in any formal way. Still, he is eager to find resources to help his neighbors become more committed disciples of Christ in ways that will build relationships that are helping his neighborhood become a better place.

Providing teaching and materials to pastors like Andrés is one of the most urgent and strategic priorities in Latin America. The Outreach Foundation is working with its partner Shalom Teaching Ministry to place quality Bible commentaries in the hand of pastors like Andrés in 2020. Your gift can help make that a reality. The commentaries will not only enhance the ministry of pastors but also inspire and strengthen thousands of Christians to serve their needy communities. Thanks to a generous donor, every contribution will be matched up to $4,000.00. The resulting $ 8,000.00 will help support the ministry of 100 congregations in Venezuela, Bolivia, Puerto Rico, Peru, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala.

Shalom Teaching Ministry in Central America - January 2018 Update

2017 was a period of intense activity for Roy Soto, the pastor of Shalom Christian Community in Fraijanes, Costa Rica. The Outreach Foundation partners with Roy in providing learning opportunities to people that God has called to serve as Christian leaders in and around the country. The fact that only around twenty percent of Protestant pastors in the region have had access to formal theological education presents many opportunities for non-traditional ways of engaging and equipping church leaders.

Roy is invited by groups of pastors who long for personal and congregational transformation to come and teach a contextual approach to mission that, centered on the Kingdom of God, grows disciples and releases them to holistically serve their communities in the power of the Holy Spirit. What follows are words that Roy uses to describe the scope and the impact of this collaborative equipping ministry.
