"Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority on heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. ' "
Matthew 28:18-20

Missions

Part of our attempt to emulate the 1st Century church Jesus established means we will forever be dedicated to spreading the good news message of Christ all over the world! We have several ministries focused on evangelizing our local community, but we know that is not enough in our effort to spread God's loving message. Below you can find out more about missionaries we currently support and read about their progress.

Jeremiah and Brittney Hostetter
Ghana, West Africa

Jeremiah is a third-generation missionary and native to Ghana, and he currently serves the people of Kumasi with his wife, Brittney and their daughter, Hannah. The Hostetter family has devoted decades of their lives to spreading the Gospel of Christ throughout Ghana, and we are proud to partner with them! A large part of their evangelistic work includes reaching out to children through the Bomso Christian Academy in Kumasi. Through this ministry, children who would otherwise only receive the equivalent to a third grade education are now graduating with a solid foundation in reading, writing, and arithmetic. Without the ability to read and understand the Bible, the people of Ghana have no way to understand the Gospel and how to respond to it. Thanks to this great educational ministry, they are now not only able to understand God's Word, but they are now able to teach it to others.

"A Believer"
Central Pakistan

Pakistan, home to some 172 million people of which 95% are muslim, is also home to a few brave Christians. Although we can read about Paul's experiences with being persecuted simply because he believed and was teaching the Gospel, it's easy to let ourselves think that doesn't happen anymore. Nothing could be further from the truth. Especially in muslim-controlled countries such as Pakistan, Christians are in extreme danger for just professing their faith, let alone teaching the Bible to others.

Despite the dangers, at least one man in central Pakistan seems to have the same dedication and perseverance that Paul did. For his safety and to preserve the progress he is making in that part of the world, his name is not being published. However, we are extremely proud to be able to partner with this man, and we are truly humbled by his life of service to the Lord!
