In order to reach out to the community, our team will be focusing on the arts, as well as English teaching. Italy in general is incredibly passionate about the arts, that is theater, music, painting, drawing, sculpture, etc... And while it is not a necessity to know English, many Italians see it as a great way for themselves or their children to gain benefits and understanding of the world. We will search for a facility which will allow us to create a warm, inviting center of learning and relationship building. We will host classes for the arts, cooking, English, scrapbooking, crafts, etc… We will create opportunities for Italians to see how to express their understanding of God, while learning about His truth. Of course, these are means of building relationships and showing how God has equipped them with natural abilities and passions. Through these bridges, we hope to study the word with them one on one and lead them to a better understanding of God’s word. Studies will take place anywhere that Italians feel comfortable and that allow a certain beneficial atmosphere for discussion. Sometimes these studies will be around a dinner table, sometimes in our facility, sometimes in a park, sometimes in a café and sometimes in our homes. From these studies, we hope to bring them to Christ and introduce them to His Church. Feel free to email us at info@goverona.org with any questions.
