Medical missionary ministry · 10/40 Window, Central Asia

Serving Central Asiafor Jesus.

A medical missionary ministry in the foothills of Central Asia — home of the NEWSTART health program, and a training school for the next generation of health missionaries.

About the ministry

Health is the doorway

Most of our guests are Muslim, secular, or of other faiths. Few would ever walk into a church — but they come gladly for their health, and time and again we've watched real healing happen: bodies restored, minds renewed, and hearts opening to Christ.

Paying guests cover part of the center's keep. Training missionaries and reaching the city depends on partners who believe in it.

Where we're planted

Inside the 10/40 Window

Central Asia sits inside the 10/40 Window — the belt of the world between 10° and 40° north latitude that is home to the majority of the least-reached, least-resourced peoples on earth.

It's one of the greatest gaps in access to both the Gospel and basic healthcare — and exactly where this ministry is planted.

What your support funds today

A café and food store in the city — a doorway for the Gospel

A health-food store and café in the heart of a major Central Asian city — a bridge to people who will never travel to a wellness retreat, but who will stop in for a good meal and leave with a taste of hope.

We have a committed team, a clear vision, and a complete business plan. What stands between us and opening day is funding.

Our dream

A growing network of health ministries across Central Asia's cities and villages, so that everyone — whatever their faith background — can experience God's healing love in body, mind, and spirit.

Giving to a different project? This link is set up for the training school. The Country Life café and store, the farm, and the media work are funded separately — write to us and we'll point your gift to the right place.

Rather talk first?

Plenty of partners want to understand the work before they give — where the money goes, what's already built, what we still can't afford. Write to us and someone from the ministry will answer personally. There's no pressure and no follow-up you didn't ask for.

The next move is a conversation, not a card number

Send a note — a question, an offer to partner, or just curiosity is enough. Someone here will write back.

We use what you send only to write back to you. We don't sell or share it, and you can ask us to delete it any time.
