Team Mozambique
Team Mozambique is a group of missionary families that have been called to ministry in Mozambique and are stirred to collaborate together for the purpose of establishing indigenous churches for the glory of God.
Mozambique is about twice the size of California with a population of over 30 million. Staggeringly, over 50% of the population is under the age of 18 years old. The country was colonized by Portugal creating a heavy Catholic influence overall. Recently, a substantial percentage of the population has converted to Islam, not to mention the large emphasis on animism and ancestral worship. Mozambicans are a very religious people, but they are void of the only thing that will give them true life, Jesus Christ.
A Church within reach of every Mozambican
How?
Our vision is to start churches and train leaders so that there will be churches with faithful national pastors to shepherd the flock. Mozambican leadership and faithful Christians will be able to effectively reach their own people with the gospel.
We firmly believe that if people have a church, they have a chance!
Team Values
Doctrine Matters: We believe that doctrine is vital to the life of any ministry. The Bible is our sole authority in faith and practice.
Multiple Church-Planting Philosophy: We believe that multiple church-planting is a clear biblical model for effective missionary efforts. This is our ministry philosophy and plan in Mozambique.
Autonomy: We believe in the autonomy of each family within the team and their individual ministries. Each family is subject to their sending, local church who also practices autonomy in faith and practice.
Unity: We believe unity within our autonomous ministries is essential to practical execution for the furtherance of the gospel in Mozambique. We strive for unity in practice and expectation from all team members.
Evident Love: We believe that the love of Christ constraineth us in all manners of life and ministry. Each team member should demonstrate love for Christ, for one another, for those we work with, and for all we do in Mozambique.
