Missions Spotlight
The Prengas
CRU - Europe
Gusti was raised in a Catholic family, and Jeta was raised in a nominally Muslim family. We were both born when Albania was still under communism. Gusti came to Christ in his first year in college during an outreach for first-year students at the University of Shkodra by Cru staff and volunteers. As a faculty of law student, he volunteered with the movement till graduation in 2005. A year later, Gusti was led by God to use his gifts in full-time ministry (Luke 24:25-35).
The Strydoms
Osaka Japan Church Planting Missionaries
Open Doors
Japan is the second largest unreached Nation in the world, with only 0.5% born-again Christians. Johan & Haruko`s mission is to plant a church in Osaka, Japan, saturate it with the Gospel of Christ, disciple the young generation through the Bible, and equip them to fulfill the Great Commission.
Part of our strategy is to connect with Heian Jogakuin high school through teaching days, start a small English School to build relationships and gain trust in society, reach out to the youth through English events with fun activities, and do church with an evangelism and discipleship focus. read our latest newsletter and sign up to receive more.

The mission of BESTWA is to build Liberia's future-one child at a time. Liberia is at a crossroads. A land destroyed by civil war and ravaged by poverty and disease, but THERE IS HOPE. BESTWA offers a feeding program which provides over 900 children with medical care, the love of Jesus and a nutritious daily meal they can depend on. They also offer the opportunity for future leadership by putting children in school, many for the first time. Their college scholarship program takes the next step by enabling the best and brightest to attend college. Additionally, they are working to complete a birthing clinic that will provide prenatal care, birth services and training for midwives. MBC member Andy Perkins founded BESTWA.

Western Montana abounds with opportunities to enjoy the outdoors whether it is hunting, fishing, white water rafting, rock climbing, snowmobiling, skiing, camping or hiking. Unfortunately, this has made it very hard to reach the unchurched. To tell someone, “Jesus loves you, and he wants you to give up every Sunday for the rest of your lives,” has been a barrier for Montanans in seeking Christ. Outdoorsmen Church was founded as a culturally relevant church plant based on a relational ministry approach. It is also home to the Multiply Northwest network that trains church planters and develops college age students seeking to explore ministry in the Northwest. Former MBC member Peter Zipp currently serves as the campus pastor for the West Missoula campus and his wife, Johanna, serves as children's director. If you would like more information about Peter & Johanna's ministry, please email Peter @ zipp.peter@gmail.com
