Global Mission Involvement
Bethany’s primary Global Mission involvement encompasses support for our partners at the Mujila Falls Agriculture Center, as well work with the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR).
Mujila Falls, Zambia
Bethany has long supported the Mujila Falls Agriculture Center in northwest Zambia, where men and women of the Lunda tribe learn sustainable and appropriate methods for growing crops and managing livestock. People across a large area benefit from the eggs and plentiful food produced on the farm. Mujila Falls has been in its current location since 2000, and was led for most of that time by Paul Webster. However, Webster returned to the United States in October 2018, and Mujila Falls is today led by Temba Nkomozepi, a missionary with the United Methodist General Board of Global Ministries. Much like Webster, Nkomozepi takes part in a range of agricultural, education, and health projects, as well as church growth and development. Mujila Falls raises essential crops, such as corn, and engages in small animal husbandry, cattle and goat milking, fruit culture, tree nurseries, fish culture, and research

Bolivian Sewing Machine Project
Central District received the sewing machines.
A note from our sisters in Bolivia:
It is the WI Conference, Bishop Hee-Soo Jung, all the brothers and sisters, and the local churches who have contributed to this project that the Bolivian sisters thank.
Without them, this project would not have been possible. We are deeply grateful for the generous support that was given to make this project a success. We as women of faith are looking forward to seeing the positive impact it has in each district.
