Ministry-at-a-Glance Primary Ministry Focus Leadership training and church planting focused on creating a unified movement of evangelical Italian churches.
The People The Monahans minister to Neapolitans from the Naples region in their church planting work, and to Italians from all over Italy in leadership training. Generally, the leaders they train are pastors, elders and deacons of local churches; however, missionaries from other agencies sometimes take the training.
Major Challenges To maintain spiritual vitality while endeavoring to help Italians maintain good relationships in and between the churches; the lack of trust expressed by the Italian people often hampers unity and collaboration.
Prayer Focus Most members of evangelical churches are relatively new believers who come from a culture with belief systems at variance with the Word of God. Pray that the believers will mature, and that leaders will lead with humility.
