Organizations must revamp and reorganize as they get older

EAB is 80 this year! In Brazil we have been revamping since we reached 50 and now we need youth on board in the UK to revamp as well.

EAB now heads for a ton and the UK base needs to keep in step because it's necessary and vital. Our Board of Trustees and overall support base must develop and spread downwards to teenagers and youth. This is not despising the young at heart but is being realistic.

In Brazil 82% of the Christians in our 83 churches are under 50. How do you think this compares with EAB's support base overseas which is of vital importance to the work?

EAB needs to continue its work to get its century because the need is here and the need is great! Why has a big Christian organization like Tearfund decided to focus its entire work in Brazil in the north-east and north? Because this is where the main needs are! It is the area where genuine evangelical Christian churches are less and weakest. It is the area where many thousands of villages are still without any evangelical Christian place of worship throughout our enormous area. It is the area where the gap between rich and poor is most accentuated. In Brazil's north-east the poor are extremely poor!

This is why EAB must get set for a ton with the experienced continuing on board in Brazil and the UK and with youth getting more on board and sharing the load with enthusiasm, meaning and dedication.

I just felt I should write this. EAB needs youth to get turned on to mission in north-east Brazil because it's badly needed. I'd love to see a youth group come out here in 2019. I'd love you to email me with your thoughts. I'd love to chat to interested folk when in the UK in the autumn. 

May Brazil's north-east hear the voice of God and see the love of God over the next 20 years through a vibrant EAB for His glory and for the benefit of all who need the Lord!

I call on all who love God's work to pray about this in the name of Jesus!
