Be the solution to these problems

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

Problems

  • Many areas are closed to the gospel
  • Many disciple makers do not have the money to provide for their families, give to others and travel to unreached places
  • 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, Asia and the Middle-East there is a great dependency on Western money

Solutions

  • 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
  • Training disciple makers how to start a Kingdom business that helps them make disciples among the neglected and provide an income for themselves
  • 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 Gastern Phuzo from Malawi

Gastern was born into a poor family in Monkey Bay, Malawi. Throughout his life, he struggled with poverty and sank into bad habits, including alcoholism and abuse towards his wife. At one time, for one straight week, he would just sleep outside of his house holding a bottle of beer in his hand.

However, one day he had a change of heart and turned to God for guidance. In 2019 he met a local leader of All Nations, and through repentance and baptism, he fully accepted Jesus Christ into his life. From there he began to break the chains that imprisoned him in darkness for many years. In 2020, he did a Pioneer Business Planting training that completely changed his life. Now he has a successful fishing business with 40 employees and he leads a network of house churches started among the unreached.

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 Coaching

Through regular meetings an experienced coach will help the participants develop their business plan, church planting plan and develop further skills needed to start and grow the business and their network of churches.

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, savings group, 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.

Annual Report 2022

Our annual report for 2022 showcases the stories of how we faced and overcame challenges which inspired us to exceed our limitations and foster growth. We achieved significant progress in Mozambique and the Middle East, where we entrusted local workers with leadership roles in business training and farming initiatives. It has been truly gratifying to witness the expansion of businesses and churches through our unwavering dedication. In order to sustain this momentum, we have made substantial investments in strengthening our foundational principles and providing comprehensive training to local leaders. Furthermore, the completion of the Pioneer Business Planting Online course will greatly support our mission to empower more individuals to establish Kingdom businesses and make a meaningful impact among the unreached population.

READ THIS ENCOURAGING STORY :

“Finley from Kenya went from being an alcoholic to a successful young businessman and church planter. He grew up attending church but didn’t understand the value of being a Christian until he turned his life around. After realizing he needed to change, he quit drinking and turned to his pastor for guidance. With the help of his pastor and Pioneer Business Planting, Finley started his own barbershop and poultry farming business. He is shaving around 20 to 40 customers per day. He now uses his businesses as a tool to spread the gospel and help others in his community.”

Testimonials

"I have opened my mind to selling and starting a business. I pray first and I don’t separate business and church. I also plan and research products or services that people don’t have in the community. What would they like to have? In business, we must love our customers, and gradually, we can start sharing the words of God with them. We must have a brand to see and if we get some profit and then order the product again. More importantly, separate the money of the business and our salary. We can also invest the profit to grow more and remember not to use the business money for personal expenses."
SamuelPioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"We must know the difference between a Christian and a worldly leader. Do not mix money from business and church. The money belongs to the business, tithe belongs to the church. We need to divide it smartly to pay back loans. If we manage the business well, we can create more jobs and opportunities for other people to grow. All these, you can learn from the Bible."
AnonymousPioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"A believer can do business and evangelize in the business at the same time. A leader in the church shouldn’t only depend on the tithes, instead it is better to do something to start a sustainable business and spread the word of God. In doing a business there is a difference between a boss and a leader. A boss manages and dictates. Good leaders not only motivate and inspire the team to perform their best, but they are also part of the team themselves."
AnonymousPioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"I learned about 5 steps that we have to solve problems in business: I pray first for everything I do. Secondly, I use my experience and thirdly I ask for wise council. I also examine and do research and as the final step I make a decision. Lastly, I also learned I need to have a plan for planting churches and businesses."
VictoriaPioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"Paul shared in 1 Cor 3:6-9 : Paul planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. Thus, neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything at all, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one goal, and each will be rewarded according to his labor. Blessed is a man who glorifies God in his business. For the business to grow, we have to work together and glorify God as the Owner of the business. There are many ways how we make a business more powerful. One is your dedication to your craft and being helpful to others. One example of a strategy we can apply is having a good appearance because it is also one way to attract customers. About finances I learned that my salary of my business should be the same amount of my personal budget. Do not use your personal money for the business budget."
JosePioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"I learned that we have to work with love. If we don’t have love, then our work is nothing. I also learned that we have to pray first for everything that we do, just like when we go to the farm, we prepare the soil first. How we start dictates how we finish our day-to-day lives. In doing business, we cannot just use the money for ourselves like spending on our family. "
AnonymousPioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"I learned not to sell alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes because these destroy people. I treat my customers well and make sure that I am active in sales in my shop because customers might leave. I go to church to pray and glorify God."
EldaPioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"Before I became a pastor, I was a businessman but I left it. I realized that we should not run away from the business. Searching for a place that doesn’t have a product is a good insight to start a business and maybe we can find some funds to start it. Psalm 37:21 The wicked borrow and do not repay, but the righteous give generously. We need to pay back everything we borrowed. If we don’t, then let us return the certificate. For the Church of Christ to fulfill its task, each church must have a field to plant; a garden that belongs to the church. We can buy a motorcycle with the money to travel long distances to lead worship. Through this, the church will grow and evangelize. Each one has started their own business. When you do business, you generate an income and by engaging in a business, you can help others too. Now, a huge responsibility is on me to teach others. Success comes from your mind! Don’t think you are poor! There is support along the way like one brother might help in the administration of the business e.g. overseeing the secretary and helping with bookkeeping. These lessons are a powerful tool to make the Pioneer Business Planting and church planting a success! And allowing every business to become the instrument of God to spread his words while helping the people to become self-sustainable!"
PedroPioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Maputo, Mozambique - 2022
"Praise The Lord! I am very thankful for this opportunity to have attended the Pioneer Business Planting training. The training was meant for me because it made me realize that I had been a frozen man. I have resources when I can say my position shows that I am not poor. Now that I gained knowledge from the training, it gives me power. Until now, many of our people suffer from a lack of knowledge. Those who are very poor are unable to attend. Sadly, they missed this event. I pray that every one of us who attended the PBP will apply the gained knowledge. I pray all of us will plan properly. I hope that team All Nations Business For Movements will come back again. I can be empowered more by their teaching. The next time they come back, they will find me richer than today. It is because I have attended this very important and beneficial training."
Pioneer Business Planting Training Attendee - Sotik, Kenya - 2022
"I like to encourage everyone to do business. Engaging into business is not simple. Pioneer Business Planting training taught us that business is about planting businesses and spreading God’s word. We are not doing business without God’s word, if we do without it, then we are not in business. I learned not to go too much in the business and forget about the cost. We should be careful. I will apply the things i learned from this training in my life. I also encourage those who were not able to come, we can teach you, so please come! Praise the Lord!"
