The Bennetts have been a part of CA since 2003 where they served in a number of ways within the life of the community, including Student Ministries, Fusion, the Worship Team, and a local ministry to reach at-risk youth in Hollywood.

In 2013 they were removed from Russia and now serve in Central Asia, where they continue to work with Muslims. They are doing clean water projects and planting churches in villages.

Due to the sensitive nature of the Bennett’s work, we are only able to provide a limited amount of information at this time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Since the 1979 Islamic revolution, Iranians have become increasingly disillusioned with Islam. The political, economic, and spiritual situation has created a deep spiritual hunger for truth. This has resulted in the unprecedented growth of the Iranian church. Elam Ministries’ vision is that all the people of the Iran region would have the opportunity to come to know the Lord Jesus Christ and follow him, and be instrumental in taking the gospel to other Muslims. They seek to do this by training leaders and workers to be effective ministers of the gospel, equipping the Church with resources, and sending leaders and workers out to grow the Church while providing relief for the poor and persecuted. Though the church is rapidly growing in this region, this vital work continues to be done amidst the persecution of Christians in a volatile political and religious climate.  Click here to learn more about Elam Ministries.
