AIRTON PUPO

Director

Airton Pupo Airton was born in São Paulo, Brazil. He and his family have been in the USA since 1995 and they became American Citizens in May 2006. He went to Dallas, TX in 1995. There he attended Christ For The Nations and finished his degree in Theology with emphasis in Mission and Music Minor. In October 1997, Airton was invited to come to Charlotte, NC and work full time for BBN as a Portuguese Announcer. After four years, Airton decided to leave the radio station, because he was invited to be the Globle Missions Ministry of HGBC. Airton passion and love for missions increased exponentially. As a Missions leader he traveled all over the world. Airton's vision as a Missions leader is to go to the outbacks of the world, places where just a few people, probably had the courage to go.

In June 2008, God gave him a vision to start the WORLD OUTBACK MINISTRIES (W.O.M.). Airton would like to have the freedom to go everywhere God is calling him to go. This led him to step out in faith and in July 2008 he resigned as a Globle Missions Ministry of HGBC to dedicate his time and effort to be able to freely "Reach The Unreached For Christ Everywhere" through W.O.M. His goal is to dedicate the rest of his life to inspire church leaders and members to go to the outbacks of the world and proclaim the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ using the gifts and talents that God has been given to them. TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
