The Bonikowskys

Baptist Church Planting Missionaries in Northern Spain
“The Esperanza Viva (Living Hope) Baptist Church began in our apartment, back in 1993. Two years later we moved into a rented building in the nearby, larger town of Beasain. For the first 8 years or so, and in spite of a bunch of evangelism of all kinds, the congregation remained extremely small. However, about 10 years ago the Lord began to add to His church. People were saved and wayward believers drawn back to Him, and we started seeing the growth of a vibrant congregation of hungry, changing, believers.” You can read more about Andy and Mimi Bonikowsky by clicking here.

Philadelphia Education Services

(Previously the Kensington Neighborhood House)

“The Kensington Neighborhood House is a true inner city mercy ministry in every sense of the word(s). The KNH is located in the inner city reaching out to residents of the inner city, is dedicated to specific acts of mercy and is seeking to minister to real people in a real way.” The KNH underwent changes in its approach to ministry. The board of the KNH, seeking to minister to the community in the most effective and God-honoring way possible, changed from a food cupboard mission, to educational ministry.

They changed their name to Philadelphia Education Services. The ministry is focused on helping individuals receive their GED. In addition to preparing individuals to take the GED test, they offer English as a Second Language (ESL) classes to limited English speakers.

The Mutzkes

Gospel Fellowship Association – Church planting & Christian School
“After a year of deputation, the Mutzkes left for Germany. The Lord brought them to Heidelberg, where they started a church from “scratch.” Knowing the language and culture is a tremendous help in reaching the Germans. The church first met in a basement and later in rented classrooms of a public school. Eventually they were able to purchase their own facilities. The spiritual ground is very hard in Germany, and things progress accordingly; however, the Lord is building a solid church and is changing lives in a marvelous way. The Mutzkes are thankful for those they have been able to teach and send out to start churches in other parts of Germany. After they waited and prayed for several years, the Lord enabled them to start a Christian school.” For more on the Mutzkes click here.

UPDATE: The Lord took Mary-Jeanne home to be with Him in June of 2021. Roughly a month later, Reinhard joined his wife in glory.
