Our nation of nations is comprised of 500 diverse groups speaking over 600 languages. The opportunity to reach every tribe, ethnic group and culture, every person who is blind, deaf, disabled, or in need of compassion ministries is right in front of us, across the street and down the road.
Intercultural Ministries launches missionaries into America to speak the truth of Jesus to everyone. They all have the same goal - follow the heart of God to reach every culture - "that none perish."
"This is the church's greatest hour to evangelize |
Intercultural Ministries also works with U.S. missionaries who are called to people groups that require specialized understanding and preparation. Schools of Urban missions, Native American Bible Schools and Development Centers provide programs of training and mentoring. Language seminars are offered to non-English speaking ministers and laypersons. Our missionaries cultivate leaders within these people groups to transform lives and conduct vibrant ministries in their communities.
Our National Director ~ Malcolm Burleigh
Rev. Malcolm Burleigh came into the faith as a young man in 1981 by God's divine plan and under the pastorate of Rev. George Cope. Immediately the Lord began to use him. Rev. Burleigh commenced his ministerial duties at Belmont Assembly of God in Chicago, Illinois. Realizing that God anointed him to teach, Rev. Burleigh launched his pedagogical skill set by ministering to two and three year olds in the Sunday School Department. During his ministry at Belmont, Rev. Burleigh's multi-faceted gifts and talents were utilized in building God's kingdom as he served in many ministries throughout the church body. In 1985, the Lord called him into full time ministry as a Senior Associate Pastor of Belmont. Rev. Burleigh was immensely dedicated to his duties and he served in that capacity until 1992.Rev. Burleigh was then called to pastor Living Faith Assembly of God in Tampa, Florida, where he passionately and with a committed heart served as the Senior Pastor for almost eighteen years. |
