Our current missionary support...
Jehovah Jireh Ministries :
Seeking
a local organization to partner with, ZCRC began support for Jehovah
Jireh Ministries in 2007. JJM is based in Forest Grove, MI, and

The Lansers, CRWM, Nigeria :
We
first met Matt and Laura Lanser in 2007 when Matt became an
intern pastor at our church while in seminary. Since then, Matt
and Laura (and David) have moved on into mission work and have
settled in northwestern Nigeria, working through Christian
Reformed World Missions. Matt teaches at the Warari Bible
School, enabling area church leaders the skills to minister to
their villages or continue schooling. Zutphen began supporting
the Lansers in early 2010.

Rehoboth Christian School :
ZCRC has a long history and relationship with Rehoboth, with Julia
Ensink and Nora DeKleine (past Zutphen CRC members) spending much of
their lives there. We also sent a work team to RCS in February of
2005 to help with the continued construction and growth taking
place. We have always supported RCS through the years in various
ways, but currently we continue to give towards RCS's tuition fund
to help families who struggle with paying tuition. Our support in
this way began in 2007.
