If You Have a Desire to Give or Go...
Join Paraguay’s Mobile Evangelism Team
April-June 2013
Statistics are thrown around in every avenue of life. Depending on the avenue, the same percentage can have very different meanings. A 3 to 4 percent body mass index is amazing, but when you hear that only 3 to 4 percent of Paraguayans consider themselves evangelical Christians, your heart may skip a beat.
With that number, Paraguay has one of the smallest percentages of evangelical Christians in South America, and many Paraguayans are reluctant to even enter an evangelical church. However, WGM Paraguay has the perfect answer to this dilemma—the Mobile Evangelism Team.
Using a flatbed truck as a mobile stage, the team travels to outlying areas to visit retirement homes, hold evangelistic campaigns, and share during Vacation Bible School programs and other outreach events.
“The Mobile Evangelism Team is needed as an evangelistic tool so that many will clearly hear of God’s love for them and His desire to transform their lives,” emphasized Paraguay Field Director Larry Carr. According to Larry, the two basic needs that have to be met to take advantage of this unique ministry are funding and personnel. Money is needed to get the truck and sound equipment in working condition, and a missionary is needed to organize the ministry with national churches.

“Without the funds and personnel, the truck will be used in a very limited way and will spend most of the time parked in a garage,” Larry shared. “There is so much potential for this ministry, and it’s sad to see a valuable tool for evangelism in such poor condition.”
