Overview

Mission

Preach Evangelistic Ministries works as a team to equip, send and support the spread of the Gospel to the unreached people of the world, training for fundraising and for deployment of missionaries and their families to unreached nations and peoples with the Gospel of Christ. Preach Evangelistic Ministries works as a team to equip, send and support the spread of the Gospel to the unreached people of the world. Unlike conventional mission agencies, Preach Evangelistic Ministries seeks to train not only for the deputation process; for fundraising, but also for the deployment of missionaries and their families into the unreached nations and peoples of the world. As in Biblical times the missionary journeys of the apostle Paul did not merely target cities or places, but rather a people; the apostle to the Gentiles. His aim was not one church plant, but world impact with the Gospel of Christ.

What it reported doing in 2025

Presenting the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Portuguese and Romanian speaking peoples of South America and of Eastern Europe. Preaching, Teaching, and helping national pastors and laymen to develop a Biblical foundation for their ministries.

The verdict
