The goal of this project is to help disciple makers in the Middle East to use business to make disciples and reach the unreached people groups.
We started this project in 2022 with a Pioneer Business Planting consultation and are in the process of starting the businesses.

Impact 2022/2023
Disclaimer: numbers are a great way to show how God is impacting the world. Remember, they are just numbers. Behind every number are people, stories and communities.

Numbers change all the time. Businesses stop and start, churches stop and start.
