The Missions Exchange Program.

From Machakos, prepared for Germany — to see career professionals flourishing in Germany's marketplace with Christian impact.

Cross-cultural mission training session
A two-sided journey

One pathway, two nations.

The program prepares believers in Kenya and receives them in Germany — a continuous journey of recruitment, formation, placement and accompaniment.

  • Career professionals with a heart for mission
  • Cross-cultural preparation, rooted in the Word
  • Real placement and ongoing accompaniment

Accompanied, not just sent · The mentors

We walk the whole way.

What makes the MEP unique is its mentors — a network that walks with each missionary during training at CMC and afterwards at their station in Germany, offering prayer, counsel and fellowship. They are the catalysts that help our missionaries excel.
