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.

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:

PAPUA NEW GUINEA
Courtney (43), Judah (20), Tim (45), Benjamin (16), and Elijah (22)
Our Church Planting Team moved into the tribe of YembiYembi in 2004. They did not have God's Word in their language and no written language. The Yembi tribe saw other languages get missionaries and saw a difference in those tribes. There was "light" in their eyes and "darkness" in theirs. So they wrote a letter asking for missionaries. We learned their language and culture and gave them an alphabet and literacy classes & taught them how to read and write. Then we translated God's Word into their language and taught the Bible chronologically from Genesis to Jesus and then after the church was born, we taught through each New Testament book using expository preaching. In 2013 we dedicated the New Testament and appointed Elders. Then we moved out of the tribe to a nearby town to support the YembiYembi Church with curriculum and discipleship and leadership development. We also served with the consultant teams and a little bit with the leadership of the mission in PNG.
Now, 20 years later, we have been asked and accepted the position to serve on leadership and help training up & shepherd the missionaries & new missionaries coming over to our region of Papua New Guinea. The YembiYembi church still needs help and we are so happy to be near them as we serve on leadership.

HOUGHTON & GRETCHEN RICHARDS
AND
LAURA THULESEN
WYCLIFFE BIBLE TRANSLATORS
VANUATU, SOUTH PACIFIC
Houghton and Gretchen Richards as well as Laura Thulesen (Gretchen and Laura are sisters) have been serving in Vanuatu for over seventeen years.
They are a couple years out from completing the New Testament. They are building a training center in the village we live in, anticipating Bible teaching and further literacy classes to train future leaders of the Church amongst the people of North Ambrym.
Current challenges are that we are currently stateside transitioning our children into university and life in America. We are technically on remote assignment continuing the work via Zoom while our children re-enter into American living and academic training. We plan 3 trips a year to go back for 3 weeks at a time for face-to-face consultant checking, literacy workshops, and discipleship. Also, our sending church in Miles City, MT has gone through a tough transition in the past few years when the founding pastor was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I’ve been asked to help chair the search committee for a new pastor and help him transition into ministry in SE Montana. By God’s grace, we found a Master’s grad, and we are working really well together, and by God’s grace that transition is going as well as can be expected.

JAMES & LILIAN TEIRA
KAMPALA COMMINITY CHURCH
KAMPALA, UGANDA
James and Lilian Teira have been serving in Kampala, Uganda since 2007, planting churches and doing church centered ministries for discipleship and outreach/evangelism. Ministries include starting a school, child sponsorship and development, family empowerment to nurture children in the ways of God. The school is now 3 years old, and there are 1300 children attending.
Kampala Community Church has grown to 1000 people, mainly women and children. More than half of the community is 15 years old or younger, and 80% of the population is under 20 years old. In the 1980s, many people died from AIDS. In this area, there are a lot of men who have multiple wives and a lot of families with no father figure present.
Basic education is lacking in Uganda, which makes it difficult for people to get jobs. Schools are grade-based education (not based on age), and people don't often graduate high school until their twenties. The church assists in vocational training, such as farming and tailoring, to help people get jobs. They also do some medical outreach to the community.
Catholicism is the main religion in the area. There is a hunger for Christ, but unfortunately there is also a lot of unbiblical teaching around. Because there is a lack of sound teaching, sound Bible training is needed.
James and Lilian have four biological children but have raised many other children who don't have parents.
