BMFP is a
non-profit local church centered organization servicing
primarily the Independent Baptist Church movement in
North America as a missionary sending agency. Since our
inception we have been blessed of the Lord in growth and
are presently approaching one hundred fifty missionary
families in more than forty countries.
With the primary direction and objective of church
planting world-wide, the purpose of BMFP is to provide
missionaries with an avenue for implementing innovative
ministries in reaching the several thousand pockets of
"forgotten peoples" in the world with the Gospel of
Jesus Christ. You are probably asking yourself, "Who are
the forgotten peoples?" Forgotten peoples are those
needing the Gospel that we often pass by on our way to
the traditional mission fields of the world.
We divide these "forgotten people" into four basic
categories:
Ethnic:
These are geographically transplanted people. The
major cities of our world have become multi-cultural.
By starting international churches within these
cities, we can reach the world with the Gospel.
Social: These "forgotten people" consist of
teenage runaways, alcoholics and drug addicts, those
incarcerated in our prisons, the elderly living in
continual care homes as well as those who are
physically or mentally challenged.
Vocational: This group consists of those, who,
because of their vocation, are often overlooked with
the Gospel. Included among this group would be our men
and women serving in the armed forces of the United
States. Over forty percent of the missionaries now
serving with BMFP were either saved and/or called
while serving in our American military.
Educational: National pastors, evangelists and
teachers are often overlooked in our "global" missions
training strategy. Most have no access to local
training; 80% of those coming to America for training
never return to their own country. BMFP's Bible
Institute Ministries Division takes the training to
them by planting institutes worldwide.
BMFP
Missionaries circle the globe bringing hope to forgotten
ethnic groups, teenage runaways, alcoholics, prisoners,
military personnel and society's disadvantaged and
overlooked. As you contemplate you part in reaching the
world for Christ, please include the following in your
considerations...
Pray
- Please pray for BMFP missionaries as they represent
you and your church around the world. Their needs are
great, and they need your prayers.
Give - There is only one way to express it ...
it takes funds to keep an organization like BMFP on
the front lines of the spiritual battle, God has
ordained the human instrumentality to provide the
necessary funding for His work.
Go - There are literally millions of "forgotten
peoples" around the world. Perhaps God would lead you
to take the Gospel to someone who has never heard the
good news of Jesus Christ.
