Reaching the NEGLECTED through business by raising up self-sustainable disciple makers that ignite church planting movements

Many disciple makers have a passion to reach new people but feel discouraged. They cannot put food on the table and have no means to travel to other unreached people groups.

Business For Mission trains and coaches disciple makers to become self-sustainable and use business to start churches among the neglected people’s of the world.

be the solution to these problems

Most of the movements we know are not self-sustainable, we want to be the solution.

Problems

Many disciple makers do not have the money to provide for their families, give to others and travel to unreached places
Some areas are closed to the gospel
There is a lack of knowledge and experience on how to handle money well (make, spend, save, give, invest)
There is no capital available to start businesses, because banks don't give loans to these startups and Microfinance loans are too small
In Africa and Asia there is a great dependency on Western money

solutions

Training disciple makers how to start a Kingdom business that helps them make disciples among the neglected and provide an income for themselves
Find out what products or services the community needs that they do not have access too and start a non-competitive business in that area
Intense coaching on starting and growing the business while making disciples, growing character and managing money well
Encourage people to find local funding first and starting up a local FaithFund
Providing low interest loans from a locally set up FaithFund after the people have been trained and written a viable business plan

Meet oliver and rhoda

For years Oliver and Rhoda have been planting churches among the neglected. Many times they couldn’t pay school fees for their six kids and some days they couldn’t put food on the table.

They are passionate to plant more churches in new villages. Unfortunately they don’t have the money to travel to these new villages and less people will have the change of hearing about Jesus.

With your help, they started to farm rice and a taxi business. Through training them in Pioneer Business Planting, ongoing coaching and access to a FaithFund they can bring food on the table, give to others and travel to the unreached places to make disciples and plant churches.

How we work

We are making church planting movements self-sustainable through the following steps.

1 determine location

We mainly work with church planters that want to extend the reach of the gospel. We determine if the location has the vision, time and resources to focus on churchplanting and starting businesses.

2 field consultation

In the 5 day interactive Pioneer Business Planting consultation participants will learn how to use business to reach the lost, to write a business plan and skills to start and manage their business.

3 BUSINESS PLAN

The participants start researching their communities. From there they gather all the necessary information and write their business plans.

4 BUSINESS COACHING

Through regular meetings an experienced business coach will help the participants develop their business plan and develop further skills needed to start and grow the business.

5 funding

Once the business has proven to be viable, the next phase is raising the capital to start. We encourage people to find funds locally through a bank, micro-finance institutions, personal savings, loans from friends and family etc. We also set up local FaithFunds to start the businesses.

6 multiply businesses

The participants start the business, ongoing business coaching will be provided and when it grows new businesses will be started.

He stopped drinking and his marriage was restored. He started saving and would like to buy a motorbike to transport people from Monkey-Bay to Cape Mcrear. He has the vision to buy a car and hire other people
