~OUR MINISTRY~

Our Vision…

God has placed on our hearts a desire to take the saving message of His Word to those who have never heard. New Tribes Mission focus\’s on that goal of taking the gospel to those who have never heard (Matt. 28:19-20). New Tribes Mission not only focuses on Church planting, but on establishing Churches that will be able to operate and thrive once the missionary departs from the tribe. This is no easy task as it will take any where from 10-20 years. We will go into a tribe and learn the “heart language” of these tribal people. The “heart language” means they understand this language the best out of all the other languages they know. These tribal people often know two or three languages. We will focus on learning their language very well, in order to clearly teach the Word of God to them.

Our Future Ministry…

We praise God that He has gifted both of us in different ways.  Presently looking to the future, we want to describe what roles we could possibly fill.  Arielle may be working with linguistics and figuring out the tribal people’s language. Arielle will have to figure out the language because in most places New Tribes Mission goes the language has not been written down. She will analyze and break down the language creating an alphabet and teaching the people how to read and write. Delwyn would like be involved in teaching the Word of God to the tribal people. New Tribes Mission uses a method of evangelism called the chronological teaching. It starts in Genesis and chronologically works its way all the way through the bible covering important Bible stories. Then when the gospel is presented they have a clear understanding of their sin and their need for a perfect sacrifice who is Jesus. Now, if any of them become believers it is our desire to disciple and point these new believers to God and maturity in their new faith. Our job as missionaries will be completed when a tribal church has been planted with a pastor, elders, and tribal believers who can duplicate the same process we did with them among other tribes.

Presently…

Right now we are in training for this enormous task of taking the gospel to those who have never heard about Jesus Christ. We are thrilled to be taking part in the great commission as God prepares us here at the Missionary Training Center in Roach, Missouri. We have finished 2 semesters and have 2 more semesters to go.  Right now our tentative date to leave for the mission field is October 2011.  We are praying that God will give us direction as to where in the World he would have us to go. We are confident that God will show us.  With all that said, will you consider partnering with us as this task would be impossible to accomplish by ourselves. We are going to need a team of people to partner with us who are willing to be part of taking the gospel to those who have never heard. Do you want to be part of that team? If so, here is how: Give, Pray, or Go.
