Israel
Oded and Bimini Cohen: The Cohens faithfully labor in southern Israel to share the gospel of the Messiah Jesus on the streets. Despite the recent dangers, they are trusting that He will continue to help them spread the Good News to those who face danger every day just trying to get to work. They participate in periodic large campaigns to hand out literature and gain contacts, on which they diligently follow up. Their second concentration after a contact accepts Christ is one-on-one discipleship, teaching God’s Word.
Pastor Will and Judy Leonard: Will & Judy Leonard are currently the longest tenured missionaries in Kolkata, having served for almost 30 years. The Leonards provide pastoral leadership for Living Hope Schools in West Bengal, India. Living Hope serves 380 students and their families. Will also helps oversee the Family of God Fellowship church. In addition, they provide pastoral leadership for the Mukti Network, a network of all organizations involved in prevention of human trafficking and rescue of victims in West Bengal.
