dc.description.abstract | Pasay Seventh-day Adventist Church (PAC) is a church
whose purpose is to accomplish the Great Commission of
Jesus, specifically to the people of Metro Manila,
including the elite. Most of the PAC members are elite
people. However , they do not know how to evangelize their
fellow elite countrymen , because they have never been
trained to do so .
The purpose of this study is to make a training
program for the Metro Manila elite SDA church members so
they may learn how to evangelize their elite society.
Biblical principles and theological reasons for training
are established. The three theological reasons for training
are set in motion: the Great Commission of Jesus, the great
mission of the church, and the great harvest of the elite.
Jesus' training model of selection, instruction,
commission, supervision, and multiplication is implemented.
The training program, which was designed, was
implemented at PAC. It covered objectives, participants,
curriculum, schedule, and budget.
The result of the evaluation of the training
program was shared and suggestions were made as to how to
improve it. From the project, the derived suggestions
correspond to an acronym, a word spelling "ELITE." "E" Elite
members of a local church need to be selected, "L"Lessons
need to be developed and presented, "I"- Investiture
ceremonies need to be conducted, "T"- Teamwork of trainees
need to be supervised, "E"- Excellent forum needs to be
organized.
The conclusion is that a training program is very
important for the elite SDA local church members to help
them fulfill the Great Commission of Jesus, specifically,
to evangelize the elite people. | en_US |
