Missions

Beyond the Horizon

Lowrie and Deb Robertson moved to Kenya with their four teenage children: Hannah, Duncan, Ceilidh (“kay-lee,” from the Gaelic), and Liam in January of 2023 to begin serving in education and disciple-making with Travis & Laura Sawyer in Sekenani. Lowrie and Deb have served in making disciples of Jesus in a variety of ways, including local church ministry, church planting, teaching at Christian schools, and serving as missionaries in East Asia with both the Network of International Christian Schools and PIONEERS.

Jeff also leads a team of Man in the Mirror Area Directors who are providing the same guidance to pastors and leaders in communities throughout the Northeast states.

Christar

Dr. Chris Gnanakan, BA, M.Div, M.Th, D.Min, Ph.d, D.D.

Dr. Gnanakan serves as Director of Leadership Development for "Christar".

Christar exists because entire people groups still have NO ACCESS to the transforming love of God.

Dr. Chris is doing what most others Don’t (discipling nationals leaders for Church Planting movements), Won’t (targeting least/unreached People Groups) and Can’t (mobilizing missions within closed, restricted, and limited access countries).

Dr. Chris also teaches Theology and Global Studies at Liberty University.

Global Friends International

We reach out to Internationals meeting their spiritual and other felt needs through hospitality and friendship plus meeting the needs of the poor.

Ecuador

Kevin and Kathy Bruce are serving as church planters in Ecuador among the Awa people. Living in the mountains among this ethnic group has been key to learning the Awa language, building relationships, and understanding their unique culture. As God has brought His word and truth to this people, slowly a young church is being born. Along with coworkers Andy and Chrissy Shaub, the Bruces are meeting with the believers in two Awa communities each Sunday. Although growth has been slow, Kevin and Kathy rejoice to see God at work, calling out a people for Himself.
