Thank you for your support towards the work in Bangladesh/Nepal!

A message from Mike Brooks the Director of the misson work in Banlgladesh/Nepal.

Mombasa, Kenya

Parkview supports the Kisauni Church of Christ, which has a Sunday attendance of nearly 200. The congregation operates Tumaini Kisauni Academy, which is a nursery and elementary school. Moses Gitau serves as the evangelist.

The work in Mombasa has been our longest-supported mission work. Evangelist Moses Gitua and other native workers have done an excellent job of proclaiming the Gospel, which has led to the Kisauni congregation growing and helping plant and grow other congregations.

Bangladesh & Nepal

There are less than 100 congregations in Bangladesh and Nepal with around 1500-2000 members. In 1996, the Khulna Bible College was started in Bangladesh, helping prepare individuals for ministry. Parkview supports these efforts.

Nepal has a population of over 28 million and is one of the poorest nations in the world. Formerly, it was the only Hindu monarchy in the world. By comparison, Bangladesh is much larger, boasting a population of over 165 million. The nation’s official religion is Islam, but its democratic constitution provides freedom of religion.

The Highland Park Church of Christ in Muscle Shoals, Alabama is the overseeing congregation. To be redirected to their website, click this link: Highland Park Church of Christ website

The mission of World Bible School is to “share the Good News of Jesus with the world’s lost by motivating and equipping everyday Christians to use interactive Bible studies effectively.” They achieve this by equipping 8,000 volunteers with the tools necessary to teach students from over 200 countries via the web and mail courses that are offered.

World Bible School is an online Bible correspondence course, partnering “study helpers” with students all around the world. They equip “study helpers”- Christians who volunteer their time and energy- with the resources they need to effectively lead students to obedience to the Gospel.

Cameroon & Chad

The mission work in Cameroon is Parkview’s newest sponsored work. The Cameroon Bible Institute of Wotutu (CBIW) was established on January 3, 2011. CBI Wotutu is an English-speaking preacher training school, preparing native men to preach in Cameroon.

Located on Africa’s west coast, Cameroon has great diversity of terrain, climate, culture, people groups, and languages. Major religions include Christianity, professed by about half the population, Islam, and ethnic religions primarily based in animism. In order to teach the gospel and share the love of the one true God, Cameroonians need discipleship and support in church planting, preacher training, and leadership development.

Youth Mission Trip & Service Projects

Every summer the Parkview youth group goes on a mission trip. In years past, the group has served at several different children’s homes and inner-city missions in 4 different states. We always have a different group of kids that we serve, but we always have the same goal: to point to Jesus in everything we do and say! This summer, we will be participating in two mission efforts, one local and one out of town. We will be conducting Texoma Work Camp, an at-home opportunity for our students to share the love of Jesus by serving our members and neighbors through basic home repairs (painting, etc.) and yard work.
