In 2022 we discovered the Hope Robot Project which was designed in Brazil and is being used to great effect to provide Bible studies on social media chat platforms via "Hope" - a virtual assistant who offers a range of Bible studies to any student who sends her a message with the words 'Bible study".
In South America, she is known as the most active evangelist in the Division - studying with over 20,000 students per month. In the past 3 years she has helped many thousands of students complete 2 complete study courses. Of these, over 12,500 have accepted the invitation to connect with a local pastor or church family. The team in Brazil know of at least 1,200 of these who went on to be baptised and join the local church.
Here in SPD, we are working collaboratively with Adventist Media and a local team to oversee Hope's work in PNG, with plans to expand to other parts of the Division as interest in the project spreads.
