The Haggai InstituteVision Goes Viral

Dr. Beverly Y. Upton

A ew days ago, I stood shoulder

to shoulder with a very specialgroup o leaders.

They are the men and womeno Indias National Alumni

Association. This year, they

celebrate 25 years o equipping

Indian leaders to evangelize.

Most are International-trained

alumni. All are committed to

bringing Haggai Institutes

methods into the heart o their

nation and culture.

Was I moved? Almost to tears.

What a testimony to our

donors impact on the worlds

second largest nation. And ithas all been done through the

leverage o National ministry!

National ministry embraces the

vision o Haggai Institute and

oers training that drives our

mission orward.

Through National ministry,

leaders unable to attend anInternational Training Session

can still receive the Haggai

Institute experience oten

in their own language and

through curricula tailored to

the needs o their particularculture or proessional group.

National Training Seminars

and Regional Training

Seminars are accredited by

Haggai Institute and must be

residential, at least ve days

in length, and acilitated byan approved aculty member.

Standards and ormats or

local, city, and area seminars

are more fexible and are

adapted to meet specic local

training needs.

And heres the amazingthing: none o these seminars

requires unding rom our

donors.

In the last ew years, National

ministry has gone viral,and alumni associations now

fourish in more than 100

countries. Training others

to do the same is no longer

a background detail: it is a

key part o the multiplicationthat prepares more leaders to

evangelize.

The outcomes in evangelism,

Christian infuence, and even

the development o uture

aculty are huge.

For donors, those who ignite

the entire process through their

unding o the InternationalTraining Sessions, this new

development only makes

Haggai Institute an even better

return on investment.

National ministry embraces the vision of Haggai Institute

and offers training that drives our mission forward.

Only six years separate the frst InternationalTraining Session and the frst National TrainingSeminar. Today, two-thirds o the alumni impactingtheir nations were trained at the national level, and

many more have been equipped or evangelismthrough local seminars. National ministry shows theglobal community in action.

1. What is H.I. National ministry?

The term National ministry describes all the alumni-drivenactivities and programs worldwide including all levels oseminars, National aculty development, and alumni associations.

2. Why do National ministries exist?

Many alumni want to collaborate in order to pass on their trainingand to evangelize their nations. Typically, they start at the local orcity level. Later, local alumni associations join together to createa national association, which will usually act in a coordinatingrole or all the alumni activity in a country. Brazil has a uniquecorporate model where a group o International-trained alumnirun National Training Seminars and shorter training events geared

toward churches and Christian organizations.3. How many alumni associations are there?

Right now, there are 490 alumni associations in 107 nations. Thenumber is going up all the time.

4. What sort o training happens in National ministry?

The type that most closely resembles International TrainingSessions is the National Training Seminar. This must be residential,

last at least ve days, and be acilitated by an approved acultymember. In addition, alumni associations run a variety o localor area seminars that are tailored to meet particular local needs,including weekend and three-day events. In all countries exceptBrazil, training is initiated and run by local alumni associations,with national associations providing guidance, support, acultycoordination, and (in the case o National Training Seminars)ormal accreditation.

5. Why not send everyone to an International TrainingSession?Eight thousand ully qualied leaders who are fuent in English,

Arabic, or Mandarin are waiting or places in our InternationalTraining Sessions. But many capable national leaders are unableto attend an International Training Session due to time, resources,and language constraints. National ministry extends HaggaiInstitute training to these men and women, equipping them toreach cultures and language groups where evangelism skills arebadly needed.

Recently, weset up the

Haggai Institute

Alumni Advisory

Council (HIAAC)

to build a bridge

on a global level

between Haggai

Institute and

the activities

o the alumni,

helping to

keep everyone

ocused on the

original vision

and mission.

6. Who unds the National Training

Seminars?Since 1988, H.I. alumni have raisedlocal unds to run their National ministry

programs. For donors in the West, thisrepresents a massive leverage o theirinvestment in Haggai Institute.

7. Does Haggai Institute set up alumni

associations?No. Alumni associations are grassrootsmovements ormed by alumni, butwe do provide encouragement and

assistance through a team o InternationalRepresentatives who work closely withalumni associations to identiy utureapplicants or International TrainingSessions.

8. How much control does Haggai

Institute have over National ministries?

The cooperation o alumni is spontaneous,

not centrally organized. We haveagreements with National alumniassociations to saeguard trainingstandards, our logo and our trademark,and in return, the National alumniassociations administer these agreementswith the local associations. Recently, weset up the Haggai Institute Alumni Advisory

Council (HIAAC) to build a bridge on aglobal level between Haggai Institute andthe activities o the alumni, helping to keepeveryone ocused on the original visionand mission. The group meets every threeyears and is composed o the presidentsand secretaries/executive directors o thevarious National alumni associations.

9. How many National-trained andLocal-trained alumni does Haggai

Institute have?At the beginning o 2013, there were62,468 National-trained alumni. Inaddition, based on the programs o onlythree countries, we estimate that well over200,000 people have received local or areatraining.

10. Do those fgures include

the 100 others that

International-trained alumni

commit to train?

Only partly. Some alumniserve as aculty members inNational ministry. But a majorityo the participants do not belongto an association and are passing ontheir training in their own churches andorganizations.

11. Are aculty trained or National

Training Seminars?Yes. National alumni associations mustprovide proper aculty development inorder to lead National Training Seminars.Worldwide, there are now more than 1,000National aculty members.

12. Do National-trained alumni go

on to become International-trained

alumni?In a ew cases, National-trained alumniapply to attend an International TrainingSession. We have no ocial count, but weestimate less than ve percent attend bothlevels o training.

13. What is a Regional Training

Seminar?These are specialized events whereNational alumni associations worktogether to provide training across twoor more countries. For instance, anevent held in French-speaking Arica islabeled a Regional Training Seminar whenparticipants come rom two or moredierent countries.

14. Why are training programs held in

the Middle East and in Mandarin now

classifed as International Training

Sessions?

This refects the strategic importanceattached to the Middle East and China.

Also, both programs are centrally undedand meet the same training standard asthe English-language programs taught at

the Mid-Pacic Center and Chiang Mai.National alumni associations in MiddleEastern nations like Egypt and the United

Arab Emirates also run their own NationalTraining Seminars.

15. Do National ministries ocus only

on training?

No. Where National ministries spring up,

alumni are making the Haggai Institutevision happen. They pray together, sharetheir goals, and sometimes team up toevangelize.

AND THE THINGS YOU HAVE HEARDME SAY IN THE PRESENCE OF MANYWITNESSES ENTRUST TO RELIABLE

Being a donor gives us the

ability to aect peoples lives

in many countries around the

world, says Charles Dunkin.

Over the years, weve met many

Christian leaders rom dierent

parts o the world and heard

their testimonies o what they

have been able to accomplish or

Christ. Getting to know some o

those leaders weve had a part

in training has meant so much

to us and inspired us to keep

giving.

Charles and his wie, Gladys,

or 40 years.

The son o a sharecropper,

Charles grew up in Dallas

County, Alabama. Ater high

school, he joined the Army,

married his high school

sweetheart, and eventually

attended the University o

Alabama.

He joined Joe Lewis and

Associates, a sales and

marketing company. In 1970,

he became a partner, and the

company changed to Dunkin-

Back then, we had ve people

covering 10 southeastern states.

Now, we have 40 employeesand over 100 part-time sta,

and we represent more than 40

Ater talking to Dr. Haggai andhearing him outline Haggai

Buy One and Get One Free

underestimates the benet o

National ministry by a

long way.Where else can donors support

a world-class, world-changing

ministry and get a second one

thrown in or no charge?

But that is exactly what happens

when Haggai Institutes

International-trained alumni join

orces in their home nations. Theyound H.I. alumni associations

and get down to the business o

reproducing the training program

or local leaders.

A National Training Seminar

provides unique benets:

It strengthens the national

leaders through the unique

power o community.

It allows them to do Haggai

Institute training in the same

language.

It takes place in a single

cultural environment.

It ensures that participantsshare common goals in terms

o national interests.

In addition, a National Training

Seminar gives the advantage o

immediate and relevant eedback.

Communications in a National

Training Seminar include

illustrations understood by allparticipants.

A National Training Seminar

gives the participants the benet

o interactive creativity that

relates to their unique evangelism

challenges and eorts.

Since 1969, our International-trained alumni have pledged to

pass on their training. We ask

them to reach an additional 100

leaders with Haggai Institute

skills, and our research shows

that, on average, they ar exceed

that goal.

National Training Seminars

provide a support structure to

that commitment, includingcurriculum requirements and a

system to train national aculty.

In the early years, donors

generously unded that program.

Today, donors contribute nothing:

it rests on the power o the Holy

Spirit and the determination

o alumni to carry orward the

vision o Haggai Institute with

their own resources.
