World Zone –Pakistan and India
“Just the Tamil language alone will touch millions…India is ripe for Vision” Pastor Robert Nesan, Kuwait.
As you can see, this nearly 1.5 billion people are a large target group, and eventually we hope to have many additional directors over these various areas, perhaps broken down by language group.
As of today, Vision has Bible schools in Southern India. In Pakistan we have some schools as well, with the limited amount of Urdu language materials we have. We also have a school in Nepal. We are actively translating materials into Tamil, which reaches Southern India and Sri Lanka, where we have some schools established.
Dr. Steve Mills and Dr. John Ezekiel work together in leading our World Zone outreach from Kuwait and Malaysia respectively, while Harold and Linda assist us in Pakistan, as benefactors of the colleges planted there.
Worldcast Ministries
Worldcast Ministries & Publishing was founded by Harold and Linda Eberle in 2000. They began their ministry by pastoring a church for six years in the Northwest US, beginning in 1980. After a fruitful season pastoring, Harold felt a call to travel and minister to the larger Body of Christ. Since that time, Harold has become known in churches around the world. He is a popular conference speaker and visiting instructor at numerous Bible Colleges. In 2015, Linda joined Harold on the road full-time, after she retired from 15 years of teaching second and third graders.
About 1/3 of Harold’s energies are invested in foreign nations, while the rest is invested in the USA. He has ministered in dozens of countries, with special focus on three regions. In 1990, he began working in the Philippines helping Pastor Eddie Deita establish a Bible College, facilitating strong leaders on the island of Mindanao. Then in 1996, Harold began spending extensive time in central Africa, where he worked with Dr. Weston Gitonga to establish 11 Bible Colleges in seven countries.
Since 2010, Harold has focused his ministry in the Middle East, where he is working and investing time ministering in the Muslim-dominated areas of the world.
Vision is both asking for rain in the rainy season (the season of God’s outpouring of blessings), and anticipating even more rain…which will provide for us the abundance needed for the mission God has called us to. This rain of blessing is not just for us, but for all who are connected to us. So far, as we enter Spring, God has blessed us through faithful friends with over 3 quarters of the down payment on our new Headquarters building. We have another 10% pledged and promised…and my faith has been strengthened to believe for the overflow…to reach the full measure of God’s blessings…funding for our building and even our accreditation. Why not?…God is good, it is Spring, the time of blessing is here…so I am asking, seeking and knocking…there shall be showers of blessing!
goals include:
I suppose Valentine’s day and President’s day are the big events for February. I always enjoyed Valentine’s day with Karen (the mother of my children), and no doubt will with Joan this year (my bride to be). Though fun, I am not sure how important the celebration of erotic love is in an already highly sexualized culture. Of course, President’s day can be problematic for many as well…with the Trump haters, Obama haters…well, just simply haters seeming to multiple. Anyway, I do celebrate romantic love, as it is a gift from God to be shared in and through marriage, as God ordained, and I am grateful that our democracy, and its relative freedoms are still maintained in America…and it is always important to remember that presidents come and presidents go…so be grateful that we serve an eternal King…that is Jesus!
