Global Mission Partners
Dale & Jeannie Meade have been serving in Colombia, South America for over 35 years. In addition to teaching and preaching, CCM has been closely involved with the communities they serve, and is currently excited about their deaf ministries and their new church camp.
F.A.M.E. stands for Fellowship of Associations of Medical Evangelism. This mission seeks to lead people to Christ and meet real physical needs by partnering with other mission organizations to deliver a unique combination of medical mission services providing desparately needed medical facilities, life-saving and sustaining medicine and medical supplies and hands-on care through medically focused short term missions teams.
G.O. Ministries stands for Great Opportunities in Global Outreach. Its goal is to recruit, equip, and coordinate people for short term mission adventures that will mutually challenge each partner and support the inspiring efforts of National Christian leaders abroad. This organization is passionate about the work of Nationals who desire to meet the physical and spiritual needs in their community by becoming Christ to them in word and action. They have ministry locations in the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mongolia, Colombia and the United States.
