We want the African church to be indigenous. We helped to plant it, now we expect it to grow and develop in its cultural context. What’s wrong that they don’t catch the vision?

A main reason is their poverty. We must seek ways to empower churches for development and ministry in the poverty of urban Africa. We need to facilitate vocational training and employment for Christians.

Economy and SurvivalA functional economy is essential for social structure and social survival.
Employment is essential to personal survival in the society. (1 Thes. 4:11-12)
Employment of church members is essential to indigenous ministry survival.
Indigenous ministry must be self supporting.

Vision Principles of Love in Action
International The church in the 2/3 world is crippled by poverty and Christianity in the West has a responsibility to help.
Authentic relationships with God through Christ are foundational to successful self-help programs among poor peoples.
Poverty is only overcome on its own soil. Poverty elimination methods must be
adapted to the context.
![Page 12: Love In Action International, Inc. Ppt](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022102817/55d56ee7bb61ebdf1f8b4613/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Vision Principles of Love in Action
International Vocational training through viable business
is a multiplication solution to poverty. Training on all levels, from vocational skills
to management, is best accomplished through apprenticeships.
Management must be able to train apprentices for local ministry.
![Page 13: Love In Action International, Inc. Ppt](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022102817/55d56ee7bb61ebdf1f8b4613/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Vision Principles of Love in Action
International Management must feel ownership. Subsidies are only used for startup capital;
occasional gifts used for encouragement. People in the partnerships must:
• be authentic in their faith and Christian WV, • possess the skills and aptitudes necessary,• be committed to the vision of LIAI and hard
work.
![Page 14: Love In Action International, Inc. Ppt](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022102817/55d56ee7bb61ebdf1f8b4613/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
Vision Principles of Love in Action
International The purpose of LIAI is to empower local
churches. Local churches are central to the vision but not owners of the businesses.
Local opinion leaders must advise the cultural aspects of the projects.
