SUMMARY:TEE for the 21st Century and How It Can Change New Zealand
DESCRIPTION:A Discipleship Report Evening with Anneta\nTEE is God’s instrument to strengthen a local church in different contexts and empower and equip all of God’s people for fruitful and powerful ministry. It can impact not only your own spiritual life and produce spiritual growth\, but like a stone thrown into water produces circular ripples\, it can impact your church\, neighbourhood\, and town through you. – Anneta Vysotkaya \nAnneta was raised as an atheist in the Soviet Union\, saved in Japan in 1992\, and was called into ministry in Russia in a spiritual revival situation. \nHer introduction to TEE in 2004 sparked a deep passion within her\, making it her main ministry. Anneta’s dedication to TEE led her to become a pioneer in Central Asia\, where she played a key role in establishing national TEE teams in the region. \nShe often travels to Central Asia and is familiar with the lives of churches that experience growth under persecution and economic hardship. She is also involved with non-formal education globally as an Increase Association Equipper and committee member. \nAnneta and her husband live in Wellington and enjoy family life with their children and grandchildren. \n
