Since its inception in 1914, the Assemblies of God has had the vision and heart to commit “the Movement to Him for the greatest evangelism that the world has ever seen.” Throughout our existence as a fellowship, we have been devoted to the mission’s strategy to send, evangelize, disciple, and build the indigenous church. All around our globe we have workers with that same heart and DNA to share the message of Hope by giving their lives to Him and His mandate. Though methods and opportunities have evolved from the beginning, our mission is still the same. The Kentucky Ministry Network is committed to raising up individuals, resourcing them, and sending them to accomplish what was birthed in our movement at the beginning.
How will you fulfill His mission?

KAITLIN & SETH McDONALD minister and plant churches among the Waorani tribe, in the jungles of Ecuador. Seth is the son of retired KMN missionaries Bill and Connie McDonald; he and Kaitlin met in Alabama and she is a credentialed minister with the KMN. Their goal in serving the Waorani tribe is to reach a hostile, uncontactable tribe called the Taromenani. There has never been a successful contact with the Taromenani that did not result in death. Recent opportunities have led to invitations to plant churches in two villages that have regular contact with the Taromenani. Please pray for open doors.

ED & KIM NYE equip and empower global workers with the theological framework and resources necessary to confidently evaluate and wisely navigate risk in alignment with God’s call. They do this through training workers in navigating risky situations, and through direct intervention in a crisis (such as in 2023 in Sudan and Libya). Further, Ed and Kim work globally with the World AG Fellowship and the Pentecostal World Fellowship to do the same with all other AG General Councils and many other Pentecostal fellowships around the world through the WAGF Missions Commission.

ANTHONY & VICTORIA SANTIAGO had a non-traditional, arranged marriage (a longer story that we'd love to share with you!). We lived in Brussels, Belgium where we studied at the Continental Theological Seminary and KU Leuven. While studying, Anthony worked on staff at an International Church and Victoria worked for a consulting company. After finishing our bachelors and masters in Brussels, we sensed the call to move to Alicante, Spain to plant Alicante Church. In this church, our aim is to provide biblical teaching, a space for worship, and an international community of faith. Our task in this new church is to follow the indigenous church principles so that the International Church of Alicante is:
-
Self-governing
-
Self-supporting
-
Self-propagating

Chi Alpha Ministries are reconciling students to Christ—transforming the University, the Marketplace and the World. Ronnie brings health to KMN Chi Alpha Missionaries to reach the Future Leaders of the world, to reach students, who would never simply attend church alone, to reach International Students who return to countries we cannot place Global Workers in and to salvage the investment of our local church’s youth who attend secular universities.

Eastern Kentucky University Chi Alpha & Berea Chi Alpha
​
Chi Alpha is a community of believers dedicated to equipping students with real, transforming faith. We do this through living a lifestyle of worship and honor to God, and so we meet in both small faith groups called "Connect" groups and large whole group services which we call "Converge" services. In these meetings we have time for worship, discussion, and teaching centered around living out a life of faith in Christ. We believe in a life empowered by the Holy Spirit to be God's witnesses and we do this in multiple ways.
We believe the church is God's declaration of His kingdom coming to Earth and so we live this out through various outreach opportunities in our community; striving to serve the real needs of people. We also strive to see every moment as an opportunity to introduce people to the most amazing thing that has ever happened to us: Jesus Christ. In that our lives, our actions, and our relationships should all point to the one who saved us proclaiming the Kingdom of God until He comes. If you would like more information about anything you have read, check us out at our website ekuchialpha.org, our Facebook page of the same name, orcontact Pastor Ben through email. We would love to have you come be a part of what God is doing at Eastern Kentucky University and Berea College.
