The first United States Assemblies of God missionary couple arrived in 1995. In 1996, Assemblies of God missionaries opened a Bible college in Bishkek to train new leaders. Some have already graduated and become pastors. Today, 10 workers help with the 32 churches, their pastors, and 2,000 members in Kyrgyzstan. Two Bible schools are teaching 46 new students as well.
BGMC has been a big help to the Bible schools in Kyrgyzstan by providing the translation and printing of needed textbooks and library books. BGMC has also helped to translate and print various children's books.
Teen Challenge has a center to help those addicted to drugs and alcohol. BGMC has helped the Teen Challenge center with repairs and remodeling. BGMC has also helped provide supplies for a women's and children's center.
BGMC is helping to reach the kids in Kyrgyzstan by providing the money to put grass on a ball field and providing baseball equipment to teach kids about baseball. Sport camps are opening doors to telling kids about Jesus!
