Making Christ known in the Middle East
Middle East Christian Outreach (MECO) had workers faithfully outworking God’s missional heart for the Middle East since 1860. With a desire to be present again in the Middle East after working in the region decades earlier, SIM joined hands with MECO in 2016. SIM’s vision for the Middle East is to see a witness to Christ’s love where He is least known, disciples of Jesus expressing God’s love in their communities and Christcentred churches fulfilling God’s mission.
The Middle East is a region that is rich in culture and history. It is a part of the world where the church has endured with great faith through many difficult times. There are currently around 50 SIM workers in the Middle East serving in seven countries, with many opportunities for more to serve least reached communities in this region.
