A Pastor in Brazil Builds a Vision
Pastor Diogo Soares leads a church in São Paulo, Brazil, called Igreja Batista do Alicerce. He was having a tough time creating and implementing his vision for the church and decided to connect with Eduardo Mendes, the Managing Director of Lead by the Name. Could they help him lead and unify his church around a shared vision?
Lead by the Name decided to start by helping Pastor Diogo through personalized one-on-one mentoring. This proved to be a vital first step in empowering and building his leadership ability. After three months of mentorship and helping him reach that next level of leadership, Pastor Diogo decided to bring Lead by the Name into his next challenge. He still needed help with the church structure and vision implementation. This is where the Organizational Development program played a role. The Lead by the Name team was able to put together a ten-year plan for the church based on an in-depth assessment of the unique needs and culture of the church and the surrounding community.
Fast-forward to early 2023, Lead by the Name is helping Pastor Diogo and Igreja Batista do Alicerce implement this new church structure and help them realize their vision. Through regular consultation meetings with the Lead by the Name team, the church is moving its vision forward and accomplishing their goals for ministry. They are finding creative ways to use their facilities and resources to reach their community through education, sports, and social initiatives. This is something the entire leadership team is united around, which further allows the church to live out its mission boldly.
Here’s how Pastor Diogo speaks about the experience:
“The Lead by the Name one-on-one program helped by contributing to my leadership, looking into some areas of my life that I needed to grow, and adding to that, the encouragement that the consultants bring is amazing. The leadership program and, later in the process, the organizational development program was vital for implementing the vision God gave me.”
