About BASIC Ministries International
Brothers And Sisters In Christ (BASIC) Ministries is an organization that is seeking how God would use us to fulfill the Great Commission and stand with our persecuted Brothers And Sisters In Christ, particularly in Sudan. BASIC Ministries is based in Midland, Texas. In 2001 Basic Ministries was actively involved in organizing and coordinating the International Day of Prayer For the Persecuted Church (IDOP) in Midland, Texas which served as the first ever Host City for the IDOP. BASIC Ministries has assisted other Sudanese relief ministries such as Christian Solidarity Worldwide, Voice of the Martyrs, Stonegate Fellowship Church, and Servants Heart. You can learn more about these and other similar ministries by visiting our Links page.
In April 2002 we began a partnership project, The Sudan Project, with Bishop Elias Taban, based in Yei, Sudan. Bishop Taban has over 100 skilled evangelists and pastors who are ready to share the Gospel in our target area. Our target area includes Sudan, and the borderlands of Uganda, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Central African Republic. This ministry is unique in the following respects:
- We have very low overhead. Outside of our target area all of our workers are volunteers. We pay no office rent anywhere. The little overhead we have is paid by an anonymous donor.
- Our partners, Bishop Taban and his team of evangelists, are located on site in our target area. They know the area communities because they are members of the area communities. They know the area languages because they are native speakers of the area languages.
Our partnership with our Brothers And Sisters In Christ is empowered by the Holy Spirit and the vision to bring hope eternal hope through the Gospel to this part of the world that has suffered so much and will continue to suffer without Christ.
