"We believe that the Spirit of God is in us today and works through us as He did through that first group of believers. Although we are parachurch, we carry out many functions of church and to do so we depend on the Spirit. Therefore, we trust Him to cultivate a strong internal community across our teams through intentional sharing, and collaboration."

As we prepare for the 2026 Ride for Gutu Mission Hospital, here is a story worth celebrating from Gutu.

On May 1st, Brecore Cycling Club officially launched in Gutu as a local offshoot inspired by the Ride for Gutu Mission Hospital in Ontario. To mark the occasion, the club hosted a 120km fundraising ride in support of maternal and infant care at Gutu Mission Hospital, with over 60 cyclists participating in the event.

Excited to see this locally led initiative take root, and looking forward to future events and continued community impact in Gutu.

"A friend once asked me, “Do short-term missions trips actually lead to any good?” I had just returned from an overseas trip.
