Overview
Mission
To glorify Christ by equipping local national pastors and mobilizing short-term mission teams to assist them in planting new indigenous churches. Point Ministry The heart and soul of each EPPIC Journey (EJ) is the Mission Point Ministry. Each mission point represents a new church that is being planted or a fledgling church that is being strengthened. The pastors of these new churches are referred to as mission point pastors. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, each mission point pastor is being sent out by his mother church pastor (i.e., the pastor of one of the locally established churches) to plant this new church. After the mission point pastors have been properly equipped through the **TCCP** and the **Bible Seminar** , the Mission Point Ministry helps them jump start their new or fledgling churches. This is accomplishe.

The organization trained 38 local pastors and assisted them in planting 20 new churches. During the campaign, 28,193 were presented the gospel and 26,163 were saved.
