our mission is to reach, teach, and train people for christ.
Biblical Missions class
Teacher: Pastor Stephen Duwe
Time: Sundays, 10:35am, beginning September 7 (for 7 weeks)
Location: Heritage Room
Info: What is the grand mission of the Church? And how does God expect the church to see it through? In “Biblical Missions,” we’ll explore the missional nature of God, the history of missions and mission movements, the Bible’s expectations on churches to reach the unreached today, and how Compass as a church body and you as an individual can be engaged in God’s grand mission. We'll also hear firsthand from some former frontline missionaries and talk practically about developing our church's missions engagement.
MISSIONARY PARTNERS
“Missionary Partners” are individuals or couples that are highly-funded and highly-connected with CBCTV. They are fully aligned in all major areas of theology and philosophy, including our 8 distinctives. Their ministries have a focus on expositional preaching and training men for greater leadership in the church.

Sufficiency of Scripture (SOS) Ministries exists to strengthen lives and communities through Christ, and we believe that the most enduring avenue for personal and collective strength comes through bringing Scripture to life in Christ’s church.
Our commitment is to establishing and shoring up the spiritual and physical walls of His Church throughout East Africa. The heart of our ministry’s work lies in the Ugandan community of Kubamitwe, where God is changing and shaping lives at every turn.

Community Bible Church of Kubamitwe
2025 UGANDA STM

MISSIONARY Sponsors
“Missionary Sponsors” are individuals or couples that are moderately-funded and moderately-connected with CBCTV. They are generally aligned in all major areas of theology and philosophy. Their ministries are doing a gospel work either as a church or as a direct support of the local church. Some may be in the process of consideration for Partnership.
Pascal & Bea Grosjean
Berlin, Germany
The main focus of ministry for Pascal Grosjean is to pastor the church, to plant new churches in the future, and to equip future leaders through the work of the local Bible training center.
The city of Berlin is the main focus geographically, especially former East Berlin. 3.8 million people live in Berlin, and the majority are atheists. The city's history, with 40 years of communism and a wall separating the city has left its mark. This is why the Grosjean’s believe that the city of Berlin and eastern Germany has a great need for evangelism, planting healthy churches, and developing new leaders and pastors.
Key Ministries include:
Grace Fellowship Church
European Bible Training Center (EBTC)

Missionaries inherited from previous church
In June, 2024, Compass was graciously handed the keys to our current building from a church that, sadly, was closing down. One way we saw we could bless them and their memory was to continue supporting all of their supported missionaries for the next 12-18 months.
While the previous church and their missionaries may not fully align with Compass’s theology and distinctives, we are supporting all of them at their previous support level through the end of 2025. Before this support ends, we will evaluate each missionary and, Lord willing, continue on many of them as Missionary Sponsors.
