Is Learning Technologies an Answer in Latin America?

While the number of believers and churches are growing in an exponential way, training the number of pastors and leaders required to meet this need is a very real challenge around the world.

MAF-LT, or Learning Technologies, uses modern technology to provide formal and non-formal education to pastors and Christian leaders via the internet, CDs, etc. It enables them to continue serving their churches while improving their Biblical knowledge and ministry skills.

MAF-LT created the DeViewer. The DeViewer is a great platform that allows Christian institutions to create their own courses in different languages, delivering them through the internet, CD’s or just installing it in your computer (without internet connection).

It allows us to provide many tools, including various courses, Bibles Translations, books and articles on one CD, or on the internet, all in an easy to surf environment.

Already there are organizations in Latin America being equipped and helped with our software tools, workshops, digitalizing processes and support.

Three key areas of LT service in Latin America are: Consulting, training, and projects.

Support Meter

We have been asked to raise $2450 monthly to sustain our ministry and cover our family expenses.

We invite you to become a part of what the Lord is doing in and through us. Please prayerfully consider partnering with us! Thank you!

Challenge

There are 460 million people who speak Spanish around the world. This is the main language in 18 countries. There are more than 40 million Hispanic people living in the United States.

Most of the leaders who move to another city or country to receive theological education never go back to their own countries or churches.

We have a great opportunity to provide quality training to those who are already ministering in the Spanish speaking world. They are able to continue serving their churches and communities, and at the same time receive theological education to improve their knowledge, skills and possibilities of success in reaching the world for Christ.

We will be building alliances to create, deliver and administrate courses in different platforms online and offline.

We want to invite you to become a part of what the Lord is doing in this part of the world. About 90% of the Hispanic pastors and leaders (including those in Latin America and those in the United States) have not received any formal theological training. As a result, there are many misconceptions related to God, His Kingdom and His church.

"And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also". 2 Tim 2:2
