A Call for Literature Evangelists

The Publishing Director of the General Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Dr. Howard Faigao, and the Northern Asia-Pacific Division (NSD) Publishing Director, Dr.Teru Fukui, came to Mongolia on August 14 and 15, 2012. They met with the Administration officers, Church Pastors and Church Leaders of the Mongolia Mission Field (MMF) concerning its drive to promote the publishing ministryworldwide through the active participation of literature evangelists. In Pastor Faigao’s presentation, emphasis was given on the importance of having a sense of mission and vision,as well as strong leadership. He also discussed formulation of publishing policies that will address in part the remuneration and benefits of the colporteurs, and having a  quality product- the printed books – which are worthy for selling and sharing.

During the consultation process in the Publishing Committee of MMF, it was agreed that the latter will create Mongolia Adventist Publishing Association. In doing so, each Church is to be represented by at least one literature evangelist. Administrators, on the other hand, committed to intensify the promotion in all areas of the Publishing ministry program and to enhance the accountability of existing books, sales proceeds, and the overall operation of the Publishing Association. Testimonies for the Church 8:89 states, “the printing and circulation of books and papers that contain the truth for this time are to be our work”. MMF surely embraces the commitment to bring people to Christ through literature ministry.
