The Zacchaeus Project – Brief summary

A ministry of Relational Evangelism and Discipleship in Latin America

Richard and Margarita Houston

 

The Zacchaeus Project is a relational evangelism and discipleship approach to reach for Christ influential Latin Americans – the decision-makers of today and tomorrow.

Three Year Vision:

Mindful that they cannot promise what only the Spirit of God can produce, entering 2023, they envision 30+ highly motivated and fully trained business and professional Christians discipling 30-50 new believers to be the next generation of relational evangelists and disciplers.
