Programs

6 programs

East & South West Asia - Church planting and Scripture placement. This region is an area of growing ministry opportunity for MNM. During 2022 the organization continued to develop more ministry relationships and to build on its base. We have observed that passionate and committed East Asian church leaders who serve in under-resourced areas need training in evangelism and discipleship to establish and grow healthy churches. We provide both scriptures and the type of training needed to those leaders with limited access to these resources. In 2021 over 92,000 Bibles were provided to those who have limited access.
