Organizations Filed Purposes:
BIBLE MISSION'S PURPOSE AND VISION IS TO WIN PEOPLE FOR CHRIST THROUGH COOPERATION AND PARTNERSHIP OF LOCAL CHURCHES. BMG STRATEGICALLY SERVES WITH, AND THROUGH THE LOCAL CHURCHES. OUR PURPOSE IS TO HELP THE LOCAL CHURCHES (THROUGH STRATEGIC DISCIPLESHIP) TO TRAIN AND PREPARE YOUNG PEOPLE FOR THE MINISTRY AS NEXT GENERATION LEADERS. THE STRATEGY OF BMG TO ACCOMPLISH THE MISSION IS BY WORKING WITH FOUNDATIONS, CHURCHES AND INDIVIDUAL DONORS IN SHARING THE VISION OF EVANGELISM, DISCIPLESHIP, AND CARING.
A CHRISTIAN MINISTRY SERVING THE COUNTRIES OF THE FORMER SOVIET UNION AND CENTRAL ASIA BY WORKING ALONGSIDE USA-BASED CHURCHES TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST TO THOSE NATIONS.
BMG (US) SUPPORTS THE WORK OF BIBLE MISSION WHOSE HEADQUARTER IS IN GERMANY. BIBLE MISSION (IN GERMANY) IS A SEPARATE ENTITY, BUT IT IS THE HEADQUARTERS OF THE DRIVING FORCE IN SERVING THE COUNTRIES OF THE FORMER SOVIET UNION. BIBLE MISSION WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1984 IN KAZAKHSTAN BUT WAS FORCED TO MOVE TO GERMANY WHEN THE IRON CURTAIN PROHIBITED RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS TO EXIST IN THE USSR. GOD IS LEADING BMG TO NEW MISSION FIELDS TO THE UNREACHED NATIONS AND ETHNIC GROUPS INCLUDING TAJIKISTAN (PAMIR NATIONS), CHECHNYA, DAGESTAN, ABKHAZIA, CRIMEA (TATARS). OVER 1000 NEW BELIEVERS WERE BROUGHT TO CHRIST THROUGH THE EVANGELIZATION EFFORTS OF LOCAL CHURCHES WHOSE LEADERS AND CONGREGATION MEMBERS HAVE BEEN TRAINED BY BMG. ALSO, THOUSANDS OF BELIEVERS WERE TRAINED TO GROW IN THEIR FAITH AND BE ABLE TO SHARE THEIR FAITH THROUGH THE INDEPENDENT BIBLE CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL. NEW ORPHANAGES (CALLED HOPE CENTERS) WERE ESTABLISHED TO PROVIDE FOOD, HOUSING AND CLOTHING FOR ORPHANS AND/OR STREET CHILDREN. WIDOWS WERE SERVED WITH FOOD, HEATING SUPPLIES, CLOTHING, AND SHELTER THROUGHOUT THE MINISTRY AREAS. NEW CHURCHES (CALLED PRAYER HOUSES) WERE BUILT FOR CONGREGATIONS WHO HAD GROWN TO A SIZE THAT THEY NEEDED A BUILDING.BMG WAS INVOLVED IN THE FOLLOWING SPECIFIC PROJECTS DURING THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31ST, 2017:1. PROJECT 1:10. LOCAL CHURCHES WERE TRAINED HOW TO REACH THEIR COMMUNITIES FOR CHRIST THROUGH THE EDUCATION AND ON-SITE MENTORSHIP BY BIBLE MISSION. 2. MISSIONARIES SUPPORT. BIBLE MISSION HELPS TRAIN THE LOCAL CONGREGATION MEMBERS TO BE MISSIONARIES, SO THE LOCAL CHURCH CAN SEND THEM OUT TO REMOTE VILLAGES THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN SERVED BY CHRISTIANS. 3. PRAYER ROOMS. WHEN THE MISSIONARY HAS ESTABLISHED A GROUP OF NEW BELIEVERS WHO ARE MEETING REGULARLY TO STUDY THE GOSPEL AND SUPPORT EACH OTHER IN PRAYER AND SERVICE, THEN THEY NEED A CENTRALIZED MEETING PLACE WHICH ARE CALLED PRAYER ROOMS. 4. NEXT GENERATION LEADERS (NGL). BIBLE MISSION SUPPORTS THROUGH FINANCES AND LEADERSHIP, SPECIAL GATHERINGS, SUCH AS SUMMER CAMPS, FOR YOUNG BELIEVERS AGES 15 TO 25.5. GOSPEL TO UNREACHED NATIONS AND PEOPLES. THERE ARE REGIONS IN CENTRAL ASIA, SUCH AS AREAS IN THE COUNTRIES OF TAJIKISTAN AND KAZAKHSTAN THAT ARE SO REMOTE THAT THE GOSPEL HAS NEVER BEEN PRESENTED TO THEM. 6. HOPE CENTERS. DUE TO THE EXTREME POVERTY AND SHORTENED MORTALITY RATE OF ADULTS, DUE TO DRUGS, UNSANITARY HEALTH CONDITIONS, ETC., THERE ARE MANY CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN LEFT AS ORPHANS.7. WIDOWS. MANY MEN DIE AT AN EARLY AGE AND LEAVE WIDOWS WHO ARE VIRTUALLY DESTITUTE.8. PEOPLE IN NEED. THERE ARE OTHER SERVICES WHICH ARE NEEDED IN OUR SERVICE AREAS SUCH AS DENTAL CARE, VISION ASSISTANCE, CLEAN DRINKING WATER, ETC. 9. INDEPENDENT BIBLE CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL. THROUGHOUT THE FORMER SOVIET UNION BIBLE MISSION HAS HELPED BUILD, TRAIN, AND STAFF THE MINISTRY OF BIBLE EDUCATION AND TRAINING CALLED "DISCIPLESHIP." PEOPLE CAN COME ON-SITE TO SCHOOLS FOR TRAINING BUT MOST OFTEN THEY ARE TRAINED THROUGH ONLINE EDUCATIONAL SOURCES. 10. PARTNERSHIPS. AS MENTIONED ABOVE, BIBLE MISSION WORKS WITH INTERNATIONAL COOPERATING MINISTRIES AS WELL AS OTHER MINISTRIES SUCH AS FREE WILL BAPTIST CONFERENCE.
