Sunday School Teacher Training
Equipping Local Leaders. Reaching the Next Generation.
The Sunday School Teacher Training & Children’s Ministry is a cornerstone of 3AGL’s mission, designed to provide consistent, Christ-centered education and care for children in underserved Amazon communities.
Each year, this program:
Trains 50+ local teachers and volunteers

By equipping local leaders, the ministry ensures long-term sustainability and multiplication of impact.

Why Teacher Training Matters
In many Amazon villages:
Formal education is limited or inconsistent
Trained children's ministry leaders are scarce
Churches rely on volunteers with little support
This program transforms willing volunteers into confident, equipped spiritual mentors.
Our Sunday School Teacher Training & Children’s Ministry equips over 50 local teachers each year to disciple 300–500 children across the Amazon tri-border region.
Through culturally relevant training, Bible-based education, and holistic care, we are raising a new generation of leaders grounded in faith and supported by their communities.
