Inter-America Expands Cross-Cultural Mission Training to 700 Regional Leaders Written by: February 14, 2021 In an effort to continue expanding mission outreach to different people groups across the territory, the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Inter-America, during a recent training symposium, equipped more than 700 of its church leaders, administrators, pastors, and mission coordinators to build bridges to Muslims. The first-of-its-kind event, coined as the Adventist Muslim Relations Training Symposium, sought to provide new knowledge, skills and attitudes as mission leaders engage in dialogue with their Muslim friends. The six-day virtual symposium on Islamic studies began on Jan. 11, for several days after and ended with a certification ceremony on Feb. 1, 2021.
