One of our CMF staff members took a trip to South Asia recently with a group exploring the country and our ministries there and considering possibilities.

Two of our Globalscope campus ministries have remarkably similar stories. El Pozo in Puebla, Mexico, and En Vivo in Salamanca, Spain, were both launched 20 years ago by a group of friends. These recent college graduates formed two different teams and, within two weeks of each other, set out to start new ministries, sharing the highs and lows of planting together. Today, both ministries are still thriving.
