Abstract

The project director developed an outreach strategy that serves a twofold purpose:improving educational achievement and forming congregations among the Ava Guaraníand Mbya Guaraní who live in the metropolitan area of Asunción, Paraguay. Theevangelistic activities that lead to the formation of congregations come as a result of therelationships built during educational activities carried out by the outreach team in thecommunities. Over the last two decades the focus group has been experiencing amigration from their traditional homelands to urban contexts. For this reason, the strategycombines tribal group missiology with migrant outreach practices.The strategy development project consisted of four steps. First, the projectdirector researched demographics about Guaraní spirituality and education to assess thelevel of need in those areas. Second, he explored literature on outreach to tribal groupsand migrants to produce a selection of principles that guided the development of theoutreach strategy. Third, the project director’s colleagues provided input on the selectedprinciples and direction of the strategy. Finally, the project director presented the strategyto a local partner ministry for official implementation.
