As part of the Mission in the Profession ministry, we organised and held a special meeting for teachers who work in public and private educational institutions, as well as ministers of Sunday schools at their churches. The event brought together about 60 teachers from the Alma-Ata region who decided to spend a day together with us in reflection on the importance of spreading Christian values through their profession.
We discussed how and when educators are restored to effective service to the community and the church, we learnt how to form habits that are an important tool in spreading Christian values. Many educators said that this was the first time they had encountered such information and were eager to apply what they had learnt during the retreat.
A statement from one of the educators:
"I would like to express a huge thank you to everyone who made this retreat possible !
Thank you to the organisers for making everything so clear, comfortable and well thought out. Thank you to the ministers and helpers for your care, attention and readiness to help at any moment - it was very much felt. Special thanks to the speakers for the wisdom, inspiration and deep knowledge you generously shared. Thank you for the beautiful place - the nature and atmosphere here filled and gave a special feeling of cosiness. Gratitude for the delicious and lovingly prepared food and snacks! I leave filled, inspired and with great gratitude to everyone who invested a part of themselves in this retreat"
We continue to work with you to train and inspire people to spread God's kingdom in very challenging Muslim countries. Each participant received special literature from Eurasia Mission that we printed especially for the month of May. This is unique as we have received a religious authorisation for our books.
