Covone Ministries

 

Phil and Jami Covone began their missionary journey by planting a Hispanic church in Georgia, and pastoring there for almost ten years. In 2015, God called them to live in central Mexico as full-time missionaries, working to see disciple-making movements begin all over the region. Phil grew up in Mexico as the son of Presbyterian missionaries, and now God is using his knowledge of the language and culture to build relationships and share Christ with the Mexican people. 

Presently, due to Phil and Jami each having cancer, treatments, and surveillance, the Covones live in northeast Georgia. However, they continue to oversee the work in Mexico by making trips there several times each year. Also, Phil communicates with the disciples there daily using WhatsApp text and video chat. 

The mission of Covone Ministries is to make and multiply disciples and simple churches, while training the Mexican people to reach their own people for Christ. Rather than planting traditional churches in buildings, the Covones go out to communities sharing the gospel, and begin Discovery Bible Study groups in homes and other locations. They use access ministries such as giving food bags, water filters, reading glasses, hygiene bags, and more, to open doors for the gospel. The Covones also train Mexican pastors and disciples to use their simple Bible study group strategy to reach their communities with the gospel.

As another ministry of Covone Ministries, Phil and Jami have completed their training in professional Christian life coaching, and their area of expertise is coaching men (Phil) and women (Jami) who are in ministry or are missionaries, and anyone who is having difficulty moving forward after a transition of seasons in their lives, or a change in their call from God.

“And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, commit to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”
