Kairos in Brazil and Beyond
An exciting project to produce a Portuguese version
of Kairos and then to introduce Kairos into Brazil has developed
in the past few months. As with so many Kairos developments, this
project resulted from a sense that God was really opening a door
of opportunity for Kairos to be released into Brazil, now one of
the major missionary sending nations in the world.
The intention is to test and refine the Portuguese
version in the UK using Brazilians and other Portuguese speakers
based over here in the late summer/early autumn of 2006, to train
Portuguese speaking Facilitators, and then to take a refined version
to Brazil in April/May 2007 onwards to train indigenous Facilitators.
As Portuguese is the seventh most widely spoken
language in the world, Kairos in Portuguese could also be a significant
mission-training tool in other nations. In fact since the start
of this project we already know of contacts in Mozambique who are
looking forward to using it!
Full
Details of the Project
Kairos for Experienced Mission
Leaders
It is planned to run a special Kairos for experienced
mission leaders: trainers, pastors and mobilisers. This course
will include a training session to enable the leader to run the
course for themselves subsequently.
This will be held as a residential course and,
we regret, is by invitation only.
Kairos in Your Area
We would consider coming to your area if you would
like to host Kairos. You would need a minimum of 12 people, and
a maximum of 25, and we should be delighted to discuss this option
with you.

What people have been saying about the
Kairos
course:
"My whole perspective on life and being a Christian has been changed
and broadened. I’ve realised the world is at the core of who God
is and who we should be! We have something amazing to give the world!”
Mel Page
Loughborough
"I am so excited about the Kairos course! The most foundational
thing in my early years as a Christian was understanding God's heart
for the nations and my own lifelong place in that. It will be an incredible,
unique investment of three weekends - if you can do it!”
Ian Nicholson, 24-7 Missions Director, Guildford
"Through Kairos, God helped me discover again, his heart and passion
for his lost children. I was stirred by the fact God wanted and needed
me to rise up and play my part in reaching the lost and making disciples.
Finally it has helped me see how to better support and serve those who
are called to overseas mission...”
Jez Cromie
"Kairos gave me an incredible overview of the world-wide mission
scene and helped me make sense of many strands of my mission involvement.
But more than that, it challenged me deeply, renewed my passion and
repositioned me for the future. In an age of globalisation every Christian
needs to be challenged and equipped to discover their part in world mission,
both at home and abroad. I believe Kairos is accessible, prophetic and
highly motivational in its scope.”
Paul Lancaster
Otley
"The prayer focus on the course for the nations has given me a greater
passion to pray for those from seventy nations who are living here in
our city.”
Steve Lowton
Garforth
