Bakery and Confectionaries

Discipleship
At Global8235 we believe that without making an eternal difference, our work is in vain. Discipleship may take the form of women`s Bible study, sports day evangelism, aiding a pastor going to the rural areas to share the Jesus Film, preach and baptize new believers, and/or distributing Bibles in prisons or simply helping young men and women in seminary furthering their knowledge in Biblical studies. Everyday at the Learning Center children hear about the transforming power of Jesus. It’s ALL discipleship.
