The Mission Society has opened several new fields this year and is exploring partnerships in additional countries. Several of the new fields include Namibia, South Africa, the Philippines, Thailand, as well as expanding our ministries in India and the Middle East.

In Namibia, The Mission Society is partnering with Children of Zion Village, an orphanage which is currently caring for 57 children, most of whom are AIDS orphans, in Katima Mulilo, Namibia. The children receive food, shelter, healthcare, education, as well as love and Christian teachings. The Currys are currently raising support to minister in Namibia.

The Stotler family is preparing to move to South Africa to begin a new ministry. Elliott and Katherine have been appointed to develop educational, agricultural, and economic empowerment ministries, as well as build relationships with the people of the Eastern Cape of South Africa. In one of the more impoverished areas of the country, Elliott and Katherine will be supporting a preschool, furthering agricultural programs, leading job skills training and micro-enterprise development courses, as well as encouraging local pastors.

Mission Society staff member Anna Egipto and her husband Lem were recently approved to begin a new field in the Philippines. They desire to train Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs). An OFW is a Filipino working and living abroad in order to earn money to send to his or her family back in the Philippines. There are more than 10 million Filipinos all over the world living in this capacity. Many of them are evangelical Christians and are living in countries where sending missionaries is difficult or impossible. Lem and Anna desire to work alongside the Filipino Church and train these OFWs to share their faith in word and deed.

Two couples are currently raising support in preparation for their move to Thailand. The Barbees have been appointed to teach English as a second language, develop children’s and youth ministries, and build relationships with the people of the Isaan region in the northeast part of Thailand. The Isaan region is Thailand’s poorest region, and Chris and Dora will be residing in Roi Et, the poorest province within that region. The Lively family is partnering with Connect to help the estimated 120,000 Karen refugees fleeing Myanmar (Burma) who are currently living in refugee camps on the Thai border.

Due to security concerns, we cannot publish information regarding our ministries in parts of India and the Middle East on the website.
