Bahamas Faith Ministries International (BFMI)

ESTABLISHING THE FOUNDATION LAUNCHING A MULTI-FACETED MINISTRY
"Transforming followers into Leaders" A dream held in the heart of a teenager became a reality upon Myles Munroe's return home from Graduate Studies in the United States in 1980. He founded the first international, non-denominational, charismatic ministry in Nassau, Bahamas with a membership of seven people. Today, Bahamas Faith Ministries International is the largest ministry in the Bahamas reaching over 70 nations, followed by its international subsidiary, The International Third World Leaders Association.
Establishing the foundation of BFMI required a lot of planning meetings which included Myles Munroe, Richard Pinder, Henry Francis and Dave Burrows who were: The Four Founding Executive Directors.

VISION
To identify, train, develop, mobilize and release the untapped leader within every human being, especially those of the Third World context. This will be accomplished by maximizing one's true potential in the discovery of personal purpose and destiny in the fulfillment of God's ultimate purpose for mankind. (Acts 26:18 & Hosea 4:6)
FOCUS -- THE THIRD WORLD
The Third World concept describes any people who were not allowed to participate or benefit fully from the progressive advancement and development of the Industrial Revolution. Many were reduced to slaves, indentured servants or trapped by a political, social, cultural or economic system that robbed them of their sense of identity, dignity self-worth, and self-respect. They were not allowed to develop or maximize the great potential and skills given to each of us by our Creator.
Third World people consist of ethnic groups, cultures, languages and geographic locations. Many are existing within the boundaries of industrialized States struggling to find their sense of purpose and self-worth. Many are trapped in the darkness of ignorance as victims of oppression.
PHILOSOPHY
"Trapped in every follower is an undiscovered leader"
MANDATE
"?My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge..." (Hosea 4:6)
"...I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light and from the power of satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me" (Acts 26:18)
WE HAVE BEEN MANDATED TO:
- Go forward!!!
- Establish a world-class International Leadership Training Institute based on biblical principles.
- Be an international Church that sees the world as its responsibility. Therefore, we strive to become a model, prototype and standard rather than an example.
- Formally train leaders in every walk of life to return to their own countries as leaders of leaders.
- For the past 20 plus years, politicians, CEO's, kings, laymen, religious leaders, domestic workers and others in every profession have found their way to a place known as the Diplomat Center, the home of Bahamas Faith Ministries International. Therefore, we are:

A Personal Letter From Dr. Myles Munroe

Dear Friend, 'Effective Living' magazine is designed to serve as our premier communication link to you, our most precious family. Over the past few years we have received your letters, E-Mail, faxes and cards along with thousands of others from around the world, and have found it to be a challenge to respond effectively and efficiently to your most important correspondence. My staff and I have endeavored to improve our ability to respond in a timely manner and keep YOU up-to-date on developments in the ministry and its world-wide outreach. We have attempted a number of items such as a Newsletter and periodic magazines under the name of 'The Ambassador'. However, due to inadequate staff and editorial expertise, we were unable to maintain the consistency you deserved. Well, I am pleased and happy to say that we are now ready to serve you with the quality and excellence you deserve through the introduction of our flagship Magazine for our world-wide family of partners, 'Effective Living'. This first-class publication will provide you with a personal message from me, updates on the ministry and the Vision, field reports of our outreaches through the various facets of ministry, stories of interests, news items from around the world, leadership advice, your letters and prayer requests, missions reports, and much more.
