Stories

God is transforming lives in mission and we would like to share these stories of transformation with you. Read about God's work in the stories from our missionaries and short term mission teams.

Reaching the Least

I was recently in discussions with other MB leaders regarding the purpose of our large family of churches. Why are we connected? For over 100 years we have been living on mission, sharing and living the gospel where people have not yet heard. We have planted churches in places like Burnaby, Bangalore, and Bogota.

New Generation

Armed robbery. Theft. Guns for hire. Drive by shootings. Family violence. The city of Piura is a dangerous place to live.

Movement of the Spirit

The little church was overflowing with people despite the intense heat. As they crowded together to hear about Jesus, the Holy Spirit moved powerfully in the lives of many people!

Change in Attitude

Lorena* slowly pulled up and parked her car near the school. As she sat and waited for her child to come out of class, suddenly someone came from behind and rear-ended her car!

Connecting over Christmas

The invitation had been extended to come to a Canadian Christmas! New Hope Church had only been hosting services for a few weeks, but an event had been planned for the day after Christmas.

Joy in Christ

“I’ve never been in a place where people have so much joy. Why are people so happy?”

Motivated for Ministry

It was Easter Sunday but there were only two children in the church nursery. Half of Sao Paulo’s population is under the age of eighteen, so why weren’t there more children in the church?

Great Worth

Girls in many places around the world experience severe discrimination. They are often abused, exploited, or neglected. The lie that is frequently communicated to and experienced by many girls is that their worth is less than that of boys.

Youth Revival

It was the night of the junior high sleepover at the Miraflores Church! Many of the youth that were coming were from poor neighborhoods and did not attend church.

Going to School

Nat is nine years old and was abandoned by his mother at a young age. He lives with his father in an ice factory in Thailand.

MB Mission church planter Louise Sinclair-Peters met Nat while sharing the gospel with some of the poor children that live in the same factory as Nat. While they were teaching, Louise noticed that Nat looked very dirty and neglected.

God Mends Broken Pieces

As a young girl, Renate had always dreamed of having a picture-perfect marriage and family. So when her marriage ended in divorce, she felt like her world was falling apart.
