The Braeton
Seventh-day Adventist Church, in seeking to carry out the mandate of
the World Church to “Tell the World’, took the initiative to train
members in becoming effective witnesses for Christ, by providing the
resources necessary for its members to engage in personal witnessing
activities. In this regard, on Sabbath September 2, 2006, a training
programme was launched with 115 registered participants.
At the graduation exercise on Sabbath, November 25, seventy-four
members of the Braeton & Hellshire SDA Churches graduated from the
‘Tell the World Bible Instructor Training & Certification
Programme’, having successfully completed eight weeks of
comprehensive training in effective soul-winning. This programme
included a course of study covering the 27 lessons of the Amazing
Facts Study Guide, in addition to 15 lectures in various aspects of
evangelism, presented by officers from West Indies Union as well as
officers and pastors from Central Jamaica Conference.
West Indies Union Bible School has also certified all 74 graduates
in addition to six others who did not qualify for graduation, but
completed the Amazing Facts Study Guides.
The trainees have been organized into groups and have been actively
engaged in witnessing activities and also preaching assignments.
