OMS International entered Chad in 2003 to partner with local churches in the Village Church Planting Program (VCP). VCP teams train bi-vocational Christian leaders to start new churches in villages where no church exists. These church planters study Bible, theology and practical church planting as they evangelize and make disciples. All church leaders are taught that healthy churches grow and multiply. Bi-vocational pastoral workers must establish their church and begin planting a daughter church before they can graduate from the three-year training program.

We praise God for what he's done through Every Community for Christ (ECC) in 2007:

• Teams: 2
• Team members: 195
• Decisions for Christ: 4,251
• People in discipleship or lay-leadership training: 1,240
• Churches established: 64
