MENACA BASE : 🧑🏻‍✈️ PILOT ✈️

MENACA Base is a missions internship and launchpad designed to empower the next generation of workers to live boldly for Jesus in some of the hardest places in the world. This is a pilot program currently in development, created for those who want to pioneer something fresh and new, help shape a future pathway, and step into missions at a regional level.

The program is envisioned to launch in early 2027 and will take place across Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, and Central Asia. It is open to anyone passionate about missions who desires deep formation, cross-cultural exposure, and practical preparation for long-term missions work.

Rather than focusing on a single country, MENACA Base is built to help participants fall in love with an entire region. From North Africa to Central Asia and throughout the Middle East, participants will gain a broad yet grounded understanding of the MENACA world and how God is at work across it.

During the program, participants will walk through shared formation and training, including CORE training, completing Perspectives together, reading Doing What Jesus Did and Emotionally Healthy Spirituality, and learning from teachers and practitioners from around the globe. Community life will be central, with home-group style church, worship, prayer, and outreach woven into everyday rhythms.

This immersive experience is designed to include hands-on engagement in:

• Making disciples through real friendships
• Learning Arabic and/or French
• Understanding and engaging the Islamic worldview for effective Christian outreach
• Building spiritual rhythms that sustain resilience in ministry
• Developing servant and transformational leadership
• Contextualizing the Gospel in real time while remaining rooted in orthodoxy
• Exploring how business, practical skills, and creativity can become tools for ministry

MENACA Base is for young adults who sense God’s call to the nations and want to be equipped, stretched, and sent. It is especially for those drawn to pioneering environments, collaborative learning, and helping shape something that does not yet fully exist.

This is not just a program. It is an invitation to step into formation, mission, and obedience at a regional level and help lay foundations for what comes next.

“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
