Current Priorities

Since 1996, Dycke and Karyne have served as point persons for Chinese diaspora ministries — helping to develop churches and connect leaders, ministries, and resources across countries and cultures.

Partners

• Churches

• Christian schools

• Seminaries

• Community centres

• Retreat centres

• Outreach organizations

• Businesses used for community outreach, such as cafés and restaurants

Geographic Areas

Vision

Dycke and Karyne’s vision is to strengthen Chinese diaspora churches and increase their impact in reaching neighbouring LRPG communities. Since 1996, the C&MA Chinese church family in Europe has grown from 4 to 44+ churches, while many remain without full-time pastoral workers.

Serve together to:

(1) Plant Churches — Establish new churches where needed

(2) Strengthen Churches — Disciple, equip, and encourage congregations

(3) Mobilize Volunteers — Connect lay leaders, professionals, teachers, chaplains, artists, and short-term ministry teams
