Inter-American Division’s (IAD) second territory-wide celebration of its “All the Family in Mission” evangelistic efforts will take place during a live online program on June 29, 2024, from Guadeloupe.
The live event will highlight the work of active church members and leaders not only across the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Guadeloupe, Martinique, and French Guiana but regions in Mexico, Colombia, Haiti, and islands throughout the Dutch Caribbean islands.
“All the Family in Mission” seeks to involve every member in the family of God to be engaged in participating in personal and public evangelism outreach mission initiatives, preaching the everlasting gospel in preparation of Jesus’ soon coming.
The live celebration will culminate a series of ongoing evangelistic campaigns throughout the French Antilles Guiana Union, organizers said.
Local church leaders and members have been busy giving bible studies and discipling seasoned members and new believers since early this year to focus on fulfilling the mission, said Pastor Balvin Braham, vice president of the IAD in charge of evangelism.
“We continue to focus ‘All the family in Mission’ initiative to arouse members of the church in the French territory to get greater number of members in the mission of the church,” said Braham. “It is our responsibility to use different methods of reaching people in a qualitative growth in the local church,” he added.
Dozens of guests ministers from North America and the rest of Inter-America have already began holding evangelistic meetings throughout the IAD French territory and hundreds of baptisms are expected to be held at the Gymnase de Boissard in Les Abymes in Guadeloupe on June 29th.
The live celebration in Guadeloupe will also feature highlights of the “All the Family in Mission” efforts in the Central Mexican, Inter-Oceanic, Southeast Mexican, North Colombian, Haitian, and Dutch Caribbean Unions. In addition to the live morning program, a special symposium will be held in the afternoon.
