Project Highlight: Continental Theological Seminary < Back to Projects Europe Project Highlight: Continental Theological Seminary "Engaging the secularized, inspiring church planting and revitalization, standing with the marginalized." Although Europe has rejected Christianity at times throughout its history, now is the time to recontextualize the gospel and accelerate the growth of strong communities of faith. Jesus taught us by example that contextualizing the gospel is key to connecting the message to everyday life. Church planting and revitalization are key to our missional strategy to reach marginalized and secular Europeans. Serving these communities–refugees, immigrants, victims of human trafficking, the poor–is part of an authentic, whole-person witness that has already begun to turn hearts to the Lord.

Project Highlight: Kings Castle < Back to Projects Latin America Caribbean Project Highlight: Kings Castle "You don’t measure yourself by your success, but you measure yourself against the unfinished task." 550 million... That's the number of people living in Latin America Caribbean (LAC) who still do not know Jesus as their personal savior. Only one in six people have received an adequate representation of the Gospel. We are reaching THE OTHER FIVE. Syncretism, animism, idolatry, and distorted images of Christ are present across every country and culture in the region. We believe the only solution is to reach them wherever they are, by every means possible. King’s Castle Ministries is a child-focused ministry whose goal is to reach every child and youth with the message “Jesus saves and is coming soon.” To that end, our mission is to establish the Church among all peoples in Latin America Caribbean.
