Our Global Partners

Global Missions

  • Terry & Jennie Dalrymple

    Terry is the founder and coordinator of the Global CHE Network, with ministries in over 121 countries. CHE stands for Community Health Evangelism, and is an effective ministry strategy that integrates evangelism, discipleship, and church planting with community health and development, serving impoverished communities in urban and rural settings around the world. Through CHE many people have become followers of Jesus, and many communities have been lifted out of cycles of poverty and disease. It is the Dalrymple's goal to catalyze teams to enable a million villages to come out of the cycle of poverty and disease by the year 2033. This is known as the "Million Village Challenge." Terry and Jeannie's son, Tim, previously served as the Eastmont Worship Pastor. Eastmont Global Partner since 1985. https://chenetwork.org; www.millionvillage.org

  • Nogales Baptist Seminary

    During Eastmont's 26-year relationship with the Nogales Baptist Seminary in Mexico, our church has sent many short-term teams to participate in construction projects and outreach activities in support of the seminary. Nogales Baptist Seminary was founded in 1957 to train pastors, and it has grown to be a support hub for the city of Nogales and for churches in Northern Mexico. Ramon Rodriguez is the Executive Director of the seminary; he and his wife, Ana, live in Arizona close to the Mexican border.

  • Silas & Amanda Cheek

    Before Silas and Amanda responded to the Lord's call to serve with UIM International, they lived in Bend and were a part of our Eastmont community. Originally known as United Indian Missions, UIM International was founded in 1956 to establish biblically-based indigenous churches among Native Americans in the southwest U.S. Today, UIM ministries are reaching nearly 35 tribal groups in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico, as well as Mexican nationals and Spanish-speaking groups within the U.S. Silas and Amanda live in Tuscon, Arizona, near where UIM is headquartered.

  • Bruce Tissell

    Bruce Tissell has served for 30 years with WorldVenture in north Brazil in church planting, youth work, training pastors and leaders, and as a seminary professor. As the Brazilian church has matured, Bruce has seen the mission's role transition from direct evangelism to a support and equipping role. At this time, the church's greatest need is to train pastors to shepherd flocks of believers throughout Brazil. Four years ago Bruce became the Director of the Baptist Seminary in Teresina. Eastmont Global Partner since 1993. https://worldventure.com/pworker/4000-707-tissell-bruce/

  • Majority Muslim Country

    This family of four lives in a majority Muslim country. The husband is the director of an agricultural training team, which, through improving the technology for greenhouse gardening, increases the harvest of fresh fruits and vegetables. These are then given to local Christian churches which distribute them to those in need. In addition to providing much-needed food, this opens the door to personal relationships and sharing about Jesus. A number of people have come to believe in Jesus as a result. Eastmont Global Partner since 1997.

  • PATH Ministries (Otino Waa)

    PATH International cares for orphaned children in remote areas in Uganda and Ethiopia that are often overlooked by both governmental and aid organizations. Currently there are over 750 children in the program. Many of these kids were orphaned because of AIDs or extreme poverty. The goal of PATH is to rescue the most vulnerable, desperate children and give them education and the opportunity to thrive so they can grow up to be healthy, successful adults who contribute to their communities and country. PATH's focus is on nutrition, clean water, medical and dental care, high quality education including higher education, counseling, and sharing the Gospel. PATH also serves the surrounding communities by drilling wells, providing emergency food aid and medical care, while being active in evangelism and church planting. PATH has worked in northern Uganda for over 20 years and in Ethiopia for over three years. Eastmont Global Partner since 2017. https://pathinternational.co
