Keith and Florence Gustafson have served as Covenant missionaries since 1984, most of that time in Congo. Their work has included evangelism, pastoral training, and working with church leaders. In spite of the political unrest in the country in recent years, the Gustafson’s continue to serve the Congolese church – from the United States. Keith serves as a liaison to the CEUM (Congo Covenant church), making several trips a year and communicating by email and phone in between. Florence works as a hospice nurse in the Seattle area.

Mike and Martha Tifft - 2nd Chance Christian Fellowship, Virginia, Minnesota

 

We are a new church plant in Virginia, MN with a special emphasis on ministry to poor, the lonely, the rejected, the struggling, the hurting and just anyone who needs a loving and accepting Christian family to be part of. We welcome people from a variety of Christian backgrounds and teach only the Bible. Love God and love people is our philosophy. We are also very non traditional with Friday evening gatherings rather than Sunday morning and a very interactive service that feels more like getting together with friends than sitting in a church. We are mission minded with a goal to reach out to "the least of these" as Jesus said and give them a place to be loved and to learn about God.

 

Youth For Christ
 

Every day at thousands of community centers, high schools, middle schools, juvenile institutions, coffee shops, and local hangouts, YFC staff and volunteers meet with young people who need Jesus.  We are rural and urban and we are always about the message of Jesus. 

Zoe Life Christian Center
 
Today, ZLCC offers a strong mission thrust into countries hungry for the Gospel of Jesus Christ by teaching in foreign Bible colleges, hosting seminars with apostolic pastors and their respective church leaders in remote rural and sometimes mountainous areas in Haiti.  ZLCC is also actively seeking ways to improve the living standard of the poverty stricken in Haiti, supplying monetary support in salaries, school supplies, clothing, medical & eye clinics, and children’s school meals.  We are actively looking for ways to give a hand-up for the Haitian ministry to become self-supporting with the conveyance of tools, treadle sewing machines, and trucks for our Haitian ministry counterparts to establish businesses
Isaza Family - Julio, Katie, Samuel & Benjamin
